Eni said it is expanding its exploration footprint in Indonesia’s Kutei Basin by securing a 100% participating interest in the Sapukala deep-water block. The block is located near the upcoming North Hub development and in an area where the company already operates and holds interests. Eni operates in the oil and gas integrated sector, employs 32,168 people, and carries a market value near $46.66 billion on trailing revenue of $89.93 billion.

Bullish structure holds as shares reclaim MA-20 and resist further downside

Price reclaimed the MA-20 at €23.62 during the session after closing below it. The daily chart structure remains bullish with shares holding above MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200. The nearest resistance is the weekly high at €24.24. Stoch RSI is in oversold territory, which limits room for additional downside.

Upside odds hold over the next week as traders watch €24.24

To gauge whether the news is being accepted into the price, traders should watch the weekly high at €24.24. During the session, price moved back above the MA-20 at €23.62 after closing below it in the prior session. The past week has seen a contained move within a narrow range, but from here, there is a probability of more than 80% for upside and less than 20% for downside over the next five trading days, with the expected range between €23.39 and €24.56. A close above €24.24 would show buyers are willing to follow through, while a drop below €23.63 would indicate the move is being faded. On the weekly chart, the longer-term picture stays firmly constructive.

Previously it was reported that Eni's partnership with the Alpine F1 Team reinforced the company's structurally bullish outlook. The latest expansion into Indonesia's deep-water Sapukala block further diversifies Eni's operations, and traders should monitor the weekly high at €24.24 as a key level for confirmation of continued upward momentum.
