Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Italian energy company Eni, met with Albanian officials to discuss new energy transition projects, BalkanEngineer.com has learned from SeeNews.com. The focus of the talks was on the production of agricultural raw materials for biorefining of degraded lands.

 

 

Descalzi held meetings with Energy Minister Belinda Baluku and Prime Minister Edi Rama. They discussed the potential for biorefining, a process that turns biomass into biofuels and other renewable products.

 

Descalzi also briefed Rama on Eni's oil exploration in the Albanian region of Dumre, 40 km south of the capital Tirana. Eni plans to start drilling there in the second quarter of 2025 after signing a production-sharing agreement with the Albanian government in 2019.
