Eni it doesn't do what it says!


In my case, in more than 22 long years, the Italian oil giant Eni never complied with the words and spirit of the Code of Ethics because it never protected the whistleblower, quite the opposite! The company has been unfairly attacking my name, honor and reputation. 

And what's even worse! Eni, disregarding and neglecting the international commitments that the company claims to the market to “accept” and “follow”, never carried out the necessary "due diligence" on my case, even though I had contacted "five" different Boards of Directors under the management of "three" different CEOs (2002 - Mr. Vittorio Mincato, 2009 - Mr. Paolo Scaroni and 2014, 2020, 2023 - Mr. Claudio Descalzi). 

Furthermore, Mr. Mauro Meggiolaro, a "critical shareholder" of Eni took my case to four shareholder meetings (2017, 2018, 2020 e 2021) and, even though he positioned himself as our "mediator", Eni never agreed to participate in a "mediation meeting". 

The company had similar conduct during the "Good Offices" offered by the NCP Brazil, disregarding and neglecting the guidelines of the "OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business Conduct", and refusing to carry out "due diligence" and make a "reparation" consistent with the adverse impacts that were fully proven.

This is Eni's Way!

OECD WPRBC: Thank you very much for your help!


After requesting help from the Chair of the "OECD Working Party on Responsible Business Conduct" (Mrs. Christine Kaufmann), NCP Brazil removed a paragraph from the Final Declaration of the Special Instance nº 04/2020 - in which I appear as Submitter and, the Italian oil giant Eni, as Respondent - that presented a text (demonstrably) untrue and that attacked my name, my honor, and my reputation. However, there is still a long way to go before this Final Declaration is completely “reliable” with everything that was presented and proven by me to NCP Brazil.


That’s because, said document was written in a disorganized manner, difficult to understand and omitted several important facts - fully proven - which resulted in the decontextualization of a history of almost 22 long years, privileging the Submitter. As if that were not enough, the wording of this document evidences an active, haughty and defensive participation of the NCP Italy in favor of the Respondent, revealing a serious and questionable conflict of interest in this Specific Instance, given that the NCP Italy is part of the “direct public administration” of the Italian government, “controlling shareholder” of Respondent.

Therefore, I will continue to fight, with all legal means at my disposal, for this Final Declaration to be drafted again.
