Eni’s OCS leases less than reported

Kay Cashman

In the April 22 issue of Petroleum News, Oil Patch Insider carried a piece titled “Eni looking to expand in Alaska.” It reported there were 75 Eni leases in the Chukchi and Beaufort federal offshore. That information came from ENI’s website, but the numbers were outdated.

In fact, as of April 13, Eni has no leases in the Chukchi Sea and only 13 in the Beaufort Sea, and those are shared 50-50 with Shell. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s website names the leases by number and can be viewed on a BOEM map titled “Beaufort Sea Outer Continental Shelf April 13, 2018” at https://www.boem.gov/Alaska-Leasing/.
