Umberto Vergine, Saipem CEO commented:
“2013 has been a difficult year for Saipem which has required activity on many fronts to restore the efficiency and competitiveness of the business. Our priority has been to take actions to tackle structural problems and to stabilize the Engineering & Construction activities addressing a fundamental series of legacy issues. The Drilling business has continued to provide consistently strong returns. 2014 will be a transition year in which a significant proportion of Engineering & Construction activities will stem from low-margin legacy contracts. We shall continue to focus on improving our operational performance and increasing our order backlog with higher margin contracts delivering good returns for our shareholders.”

Saipem is a leader in the provision of engineering, procurement, project management and construction services with distinctive capabilities in the design and execution of large-scale offshore and onshore projects, and technological competences such as gas monetization and heavy oil exploitation.
