Energy Watchdog Says Eni Still Dominates Italy Gas Mkt-Report
ROME (Dow Jones)--Energy company Eni SpA (E) still dominates Italy's natural gas market, Corriere della Sera reports Monday, citing an interview with the country's top energy regulator.
The level of real competition is "very low as a single player, Eni, dominates all segments of the sector, including production, imports, transport and storage," said Alessandro Ortis, who heads the energy watchdog agency in Italy.
Ortis also told the newspaper Eni shouldn't be allowed to control the country's gas grid Snam Rete Gas SpA (SRG.MI).
