Eni is to merge its Norwegian business with Point Resources, creating a combined company – to be named Vår Energi – owned 69.6% by Eni and 30.4% by Point Resources. Vår Energi will be among the top five producers in Norway, with estimated 2018 production of 180,000 boe/d, and plans to hit 250,000 boe/d by 2023.
