  • 2009 Sustainability Report Preview
    *00091* *00091* Sustainability Report 2009 message from the Chief Executive Offi cer In 2009, by strengthening and increasing confi dence from its stakeholders, Eni succeeded in mitigating the downturns of the economic crisis that heavily affected markets. In 2009, Eni was confi rmed as the fi rst oil and natural gas producer in Africa, taking on yet another important role at the global level. These results stem not only from a strategy that increasingly promotes research and the exploitation of the Continent reservoirs but also and above all from our approach: Eni historically aims at developing resources primarily to the benefi t of the producing Countries and then to its own benefi t. This role gives the company a great responsibility towards its stakeholders: Governments and citizens of its operation countries, civil society and international institutions. First and foremost, Eni is responsible for contributing to sustainable development through concrete actions and shared projects that are an integral part of its business activities. Safeguarding people’s rights and helping them to achieve professional and personal growth, contributing to the conservation of the environment and natural resources for the generations to come, cooperating with the Governments in their commitment to transparency, are both the goals and the means of a the long-term covenant between the company and each of the Countries where it operates. These choices lead to tangible results in different areas and in a multitude of African communities, as we illustrate in every section of this Sustainability Report including through the acknowledgments of those who work side by side with us.
