Italian energy company Eni has signed a memorandum of understanding for development of a social project in El Agheil, Libya, including construction of a desalination plant. The project includes construction of 1000 residential units with associated infrastructure service and a naval port, as well as the construction of industrial works, including a water desalination plant. Eni will be part of the steering committee and control with the Libyan government, which in turn will drive the implementation of the works.
