Eni SpA (E - Free Report) expands footprints in Mexico with the latest award of Block 24 in the fourth international competitive bid round, Ronda 2, by the National Hydrocarbon Commission (CNH).
Eni and its partner Qatar Petroleum won the rights to Block 24 in the deep waters of Cuenca Salina Basin in Mexico. Eni, as an operator of the block, owns 65% in joint venture, while Qatar Petroleum has a stake of 35%.
Further, the latest award will help Eni strengthen its position in a new core area with considerable operational synergies in the country.
