MILAN (Reuters) - Italian energy group Eni plans to spend around $7 billion in Angola over the next four years along with its partners in a country it sees as key to its future growth strategy.
The money will be invested by Eni and its joint venture partners in the country in exploration and production, refining and solar energy.
The plans were discussed in a meeting between Angolan President Joao Lourenco and Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi on Tuesday, and confirmed by Eni on Wednesday.
