After only a few days, we were among the first companies to invite all our people to work remotely due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic that dramatically impacted all throughout 2020 and is plaguing the world even today. Saipem’s reaction to the pandemic was prompt and efficient, mainly due to the extensive experience in identifying effective solutions dealing with emergencies and being organisationally equipped to handle and communicate crises. Thanks to our adaptability to face the uncertainties in a dynamic context, we not only provided business continuity of operational activities, but we also implemented significant improvements to business processes thanks to digitalisation. We made it possible to accelerate our strategic focus on ecological transition and energy evolution, albeit slowdowns due to compliance with health and safety regulations imposed worldwide and related economic crisis. With this in mind, Your company now offers solutions to tackle the climate change, reduction of carbon footprint, the evolution of energy paradigm and the need to develop sustainable mobility through the realisation of offshore green energy hubs, CO2 capture and storage projects, infrastructures for the production, storage and use of hydrogen. We can take on these commitments immediately, thanks to our technologies, patents, and especially to the experience coming from the dozens of similar projects already carried out in these fields. Furthermore, leveraging on our credentials, we presented practical proposals within the recovery plans supported by the Next Generation EU. At the time of the economic recovery, Saipem will be in a privileged position to compete as a key player for the award of new green and infrastructure projects. Then, more and more, Saipem’s profile is consolidated as a Global Solution Provider: a technology integrator capable of proposing solutions, more than services, realising complex projects in challenging contexts, accompanying clients on the journey to the energy change and leveraging on the ingenuity of passionate women and men, and on proven competences in engineering, construction, and project management. Saipem’s evolution process started in 2015 with the aim of diversifying and de-risking company’s portfolio, revising and digitalising the processes, optimising structural costs, and increasing the operating autonomy of the divisions. This has continued in 2020, keeping the focus and attention on technology and innovation. Innovation is part of Saipem’s DNA and it is probably amongst the most important contributions to Your company’s success over the past 60 years. This has allowed us to continuously improve the organisation and the offered services while creating value for our company. All our appreciation goes to Saipem’s women and men, for their passion, professionalism and constant commitment, without which Saipem could not have overcome this difficult year affected by the pandemic and characterised by deep ongoing transformations. 2020 results

  • Nigeria Last Updated: May 6, 2016
    Country Analysis Brief: Nigeria Last Updated: May 6, 2016 Overview Nigeria is currently the largest oil producer in Africa and was the world's fourth-largest exporter of LNG in 2015. Nigeria’s oil production is hampered by instability and supply disruptions, while its natural gas sector is restricted by the lack of infrastructure to commercialize natural gas that is currently flared (burned off). Nigeria is the largest oil producer in Africa, holds the largest natural gas reserves on the continent, and was the world’s fourth-largest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in 2015.1 Nigeria became a member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in 1971, more than a decade after oil production began in the oil-rich Bayelsa State in the 1950s.2 Although Nigeria is the leading oil producer in Africa, production is affected by sporadic supply disruptions, which have resulted in unplanned outages of up to 500,000 barrels per day (b/d). Figure 1: Map of Nigeria Source: U.S. Department of State 1 Nigeria’s oil and natural gas industry is primarily located in the southern Niger Delta area, where it has been a source of conflict. Local groups seeking a share of the wealth often attack the oil infrastructure, forcing companies to declare force majeure on oil shipments (a legal clause that allows a party to not satisfy contractual agreements because of circumstances beyond their control). At the same time, oil theft leads to pipeline damage that is often severe, causing loss of production, pollution, and forcing companies to shut in production.

  • 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.
