Eni misses in first Oman deepwater well, eyes second target

Italian oil major Eni has found nothing in its first deepwater exploration well in a block offshore Oman but is preparing to drill a second well on a new target.

The Italian energy group signed an Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement (EPSA) for Block 52, located offshore southern Oman, in 2017 following an upstream licensing round in 2016.
