We also started working on the platform legs in Italy. We have started the works on the gas treatment and metering plant, and this is happening in the country. We started in September. Soon, in 2025, we are ready to start drilling on the first well," Hubati said.In the view of the OMV Petrom representative, the share of gas in Romania's energy mix is expected to increase by 25% by 2030.The Neptun Deep project is developed by OMV Petrom and Romgaz (through its subsidiary Romgaz Black Sea Limited), each of the companies with a 50% shareholding.
