The plan of Italy to become the Hub of the Mediterranean

The objective is to make the Italy HUB of the Mediterranean and Europe and launch the “Mattei Plan”, over five years, using seven regasification plants and five pipelines from the South, between Africa, Israel and Azerbaijan.

The agreements signed by Eni and the Algerian energy company Sonatrach, provide for the identification of opportunities to increase energy exports from Algeria to Italy also through the construction of a new pipeline to transport hydrogen, the laying of an electric submarine cable that supports the existing gas pipelines, the increase of the ability to produce gas by Algeria through new exploration campaigns, the productivity of the plants eliminating methane leaks into the atmosphere.
