The Republic of Congo has terminated a long standing oil deal with Italian oil giant, Eni. Brazzaville says due to this, Eni would no longer be qualified to recover its ‘’ investment costs’‘. But it’s not all bad news for Eni Congo. The Italian multinational oil and gas company which has been operational in this Central African nation since 1968, would have other oil exploration projects continue in Congo.
