We have achieved positive results, a sign that the process of profound change started in 2015 has transformed Saipem into a new company, capable of creating value and facing evolving and challenging market scenario in the energy sector. Saipem has traditionally considered itself a service provider in the Oil&Gas sector. The 2014 crisis in the oil sector, together with energy transition and a deeper strategic re-thinking started in 2015, made this definition too restrictive, having started such a profound transformation. Such change process was based on the five strategic pillars which involved, in different phases, all areas of your Company: from refocusing and de-risking of the business portfolio, to the review of processes, to a new divisional organisation model, that in 2018 provided broad operational autonomy to the divisions, to cost optimisation, to debt reduction and financial discipline, all accompanied by a continuous devotion to technology and innovation. Saipem has now changed its skin and has adopted a new business model, based on its distinctive characteristics: the ability to manage complexity in challenging contexts, engineering excellence, a global DNA and the ingenuity of passionate women and men. Your Company today is more flexible and adaptable to the continuous evolving market scenarios, that will certainly characterise the coming years. It became evident that, regardless of the energy mix of the future, it is possible to identify measures to meet the needs of the new world, to engineer new proposals, innovate and modernise the organisation and corporate culture in order to manage change. A diversified offer, the competencies and a distinctive culture have been our heritage of over 60 years and will unlock new opportunities in traditional sectors, in the transition and in other infrastructural sectors with a high technical and technological content. To seize the opportunities in this new scenario remaining competitive, Saipem has strenghtened its efforts towards sustainability of its backlog, growing significantly in non-oil sectors, such as gas and LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas), and focusing on clean technologies and decarbonisation, as well as digitalising its way of operating. The new organisation was the starting point for implementing a diversified strategy for each division. In addition to traditional markets (conventional and subsea developments), the Offshore E&C Division is becoming a point of reference for the development of offshore wind farms, particularly where engineering, construction and installation are integrated. Such diversification leverages on execution skills and gives the opportunity to use in sinergy the offshore construction fleet in this new context. In the Onshore E&C business, gas and renewables will be the main drivers of the backlog expansion towards decarbonisation, together

  • Saipem Secured for Dogger Bank
    WEDNESDAY 22 JULY 2020 SAIPEM SECURED FOR DOGGER BANK Saipem contracted to transport and install two offshore platforms for project’s first two phases Dogger Bank Wind Farm is pleased to welcome Saipem to the world’s largest offshore wind farm project. The project is located more than 130km off the North East coast of England and is made up of three phases: Dogger Bank A, Dogger Bank B and Dogger Bank C. In total, the project will be able to power over 4.5 million homes, contributing significantly towards the UK’s net zero ambition. Saipem will utilize its state-of-the-art heavy lift vessel Saipem 7000 to transport and install two offshore HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) platforms for the first two phases of the offshore wind farm development: Dogger Bank A and Dogger Bank B. Both platforms will consist of a ca. 2,900- tonne jacket and a ca. 8,500-tonne topside. Dogger Bank is the first project to use HVDC technology in the UK’s offshore wind market. Offshore construction at the project will be undertaken in consecutive phases, with onshore construction already underway for Dogger Bank A and B. Steve Wilson, Dogger Bank’s Project Director, said: “We’re really pleased to welcome Saipem to the Dogger Bank Project and look forward to working with them. They have extensive experience in the installation of large offshore platforms which will be essential to ensure the safe and efficient installation of the offshore HVDC platforms for Dogger Bank A and B.” Guido D’Aloisio, Head of Saipem’s newly established Offshore Renewables Business Line commented: “The project with Dogger Bank is a significant endeavour for the UK’s offshore wind industry and we are very pleased to contribute to this strategic development.

  • Saipem S.P.A. V. the People's Republic of Bangladesh (ICSID
    CASES Saipem S.p.A. v. The People’s Republic of Bangladesh (ICSID Case No. ARB/05/7) Introductory Note The Decision on Jurisdiction and Recommendation on Provisional Measures in Saipem S.p.A. v. The People’s Republic of Bangladesh was issued in a case brought to ICSID by a company incorporated in Italy and submitted under the 1990 Agreement Between the Government of the Republic of Italy and the Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh on the Promotion and Protection of Investments, which entered into force in 1994 (the Treaty). The underlying dispute concerned a gas pipeline construction project in the North East of Bangladesh. In 1990, the Claimant and a Bangladeshi State entity, the Bangladesh Oil Gas and Mineral Corporation (Petrobangla), entered into a contract governed by the laws of Bangladesh which contained an ICC arbitration clause with Dhaka, Bangladesh, as the place of arbitration. After the project was completed, a contractual dispute eventually led to an ICC award rendered in 2003 in favor of the Claimant. The ICC Tribunal awarded compensation with interest and ordered Petrobangla to return a warranty bond to the Claimant. Further to Petrobangla’s application to set aside the ICC award, in April 2004, the High Court Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh held that the award could neither be set aside nor enforced. On October 5, 2004, the Claimant submitted a request for arbitration to ICSID, claiming that Petrobangla had colluded with the courts of Bangladesh to sabotage the ICC arbitration, and that its investment had, as a result, been expropriated without compensation under the Treaty.

  • ANNUAL Report 2O12
    ANNUAL REPORT 2O12 The sea ahead ANNUAL REPORT 2O12 GIUSEPPE BONO CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF FINCANTIERI Dear Shareholders, The year 2012 was a challenging one for Fincantieri in the face of a complex global environment, marked by increased competitive pressure and continued market depression but with oppor- tunities of growing strategic importance in the area of high-value new generation ships. This trend is confirmed by the fact that the merchant shipping industry’s investments in new vessels amounted to approximately USD 100 billion, in line with the 2011 figure, while reporting a 20% decrease in compensated gross tonnage. Unfortunately, the level of orders is still insufficient to ensure proper utilization of worldwide production capacity, with consequent pressure on prices. Fincantieri faces a shipping industry that is cautious about investment and wary of depressing fleet profitability, already under pressure due to the growth in operating costs, primarily sparked by the growth in bunker fuel price. The absence of speculative behavior, at least, is helping acce- lerate the process of industry rebalancing, in readiness for a medium-term recovery in demand. In the military field, defense budget cuts, especially in Europe and the United States, are heighte- ning the strategic importance of export markets that more and more often are demanding the transfer of technology or local construction. With regard to Fincantieri’s sectors of operation, the cruise industry has once again demonstra- ted flexibility and responsiveness to the crisis. Analysts are forecasting 3.8% average annual growth in cruise passenger numbers, an estimate that nonetheless reflects very prudent as- sumptions about expected growth in the Asian tourist market.
