In 2013 the implementation program for the health and safety management system went ahead in all Eni companies with the aim of obtaining the OHSAS 18001 certification by 2015 for all Eni subsidiaries with a significant HSE risk profile. In particular:

  • in the E&P sector, all the certifications obtained in previous periods were reconfirmed and certification was acquired for the jointly controlled company INAgip doo;
  • in the G&P sector, where all the EniPower electric power plants reconfirmed their certifications, the coverage of foreign gas transport activities was further extended with the certification of its subsidiaries Sergaz SA, Adriaplin doo and Eni Gas & Power France SA;
  • in the R&M sector, activities continued for the maintenance and the extension of certifications in the areas of industry, logistics and trade, with coverage for reclamation activities in unused sites, for the Gela Refinery (in addition to the four other refineries already certified) and the subsidiaries Costiero Gas Livorno SpA, Petrolig Srl, Eni Austia GmbH, Eni Marketing Austria GmbH, Eni Mineralolhandel GmbH and Oleoduc du Rhone SA;
  • in the Chemicals sector, coverage has been confirmed for all the Italian and overseas plants;
  • in the Engineering & Construction sector all the certifications already obtained in recent years have been confirmed the operational companies Saipem Contracting Netherlands BV – Sharjah Branch and PT Saipem Indonesia Karimun Branch in the Engineering & Construction sector were also certified and certification was completed at Saipem SpA with coverage also for drilling activities.

Implementation of the periodic environmental/exposure monitoring campaigns and the provision of health services is ongoing. In 2013 the E&P, R&M and G&P sectors also carried out evaluation studies of the health profile of the Countries where Eni operates and risk analyses for the health of both employees and the communities, through the Health Risk Assessment and Health Survey. In 2013 there was an overall reduction in the number of environmental surveys (due to the subsidiary G&P Distribuidora de Gas Cuyana leaving the consolidation domain and the trend observed for Other Activities, as well as the final closure of the dichloroethane plant at the site of Assemini), while the number of diagnostic examinations increased (due to the contribution of the E&C sector with over 30,000 more examinations than in 2012) as did the services provided by health care facilities (stable or growing in most areas of the sectors).

The total number of vaccinations fell due to the drop in E&C which was only partially offset by the increase in the Congo and Nigeria for the E&P sector.

Eni’s consolidated figure for recognized occupational diseases has remained stable at 2012 values, halved compared to previous years.

Total spending on health (up 6.5% over 2012) shows a growing financial commitment with respect to occupational medicine (E&P and Chemicals sectors), industrial hygiene (E&P, R&M and Chemicals sectors) and training and information (E&P, Chemicals and Engineering & Construction sectors and corporate and finance company sectors).
