Industrial safety incidents at Eni facilities in Italy

Overview

Safety concerns have emerged regarding Eni industrial facilities in Italy following two separate incidents.

In late August, the CGIL trade union in Potenza criticized safety protocols at the Eni oil center in Viggiano after a blackout involving black smoke and high flares. The union reported that no formal alarms or official guidance were provided to workers during the event, leading to a precautionary evacuation.

In early September, an electrical explosion occurred at a Saipem construction site within the Eni refinery in Stagno, Livorno. The accident, part of a biorefinery development project, injured three workers. Tuscan President Eugenio Giani and Labor Assessor Alberto Lenzi expressed their closeness to the injured workers and their families, while emphasizing the need for rigorous safety inspections across the entire subcontracting chain.
