MILAN (Reuters) - Italian energy services group Saipem said on Wednesday it was unable to confirm or update its outlook for the year because of uncertainty surrounding a project in Mozambique.
Earlier this week French energy group Total declared force majeure on its $20 billion liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Mozambique following insurgent attacks.
“Evaluations in close cooperation with the client are under way to preserve the value of the project,” Saipem said in a statement on first-quarter results, which showed a net loss of 120 million euros, better than the loss a year earlier but below a Refinitiv consensus estimate for a loss of 75 million euros.
