Umberto Vergine, Saipem CEO, commented: 
 
“We continue to implement our turnaround plan for Saipem, though market conditions have deteriorated impacting the pace at which legacy contracts are resolved and the execution of new contracts.  
 We have re-built the backlog in line with our strict commercial strategy and this underpins a sustainable, medium to long term recovery.
This year’s results have also been affected by some one-off events, such as the accident which occurred on the P55 project, the stand-by period for the Scarabeo 5 and the longer than expected maintenance of the Scarabeo 7”.
