Claudio Descalzi was confirmed
president of State-controlled energy giant Eni on Tuesday while
long-time academic Lucia Calvosa was named new president,
replacing Emma Marcegaglia.
A 59-year-old Roman, Cavosa is a lecturer in commercial law
at the university of Pisa.
She is the daughter of a magistrate assassinated by leftwing
militants in 1978.
Eni is facing fresh challenges amid a fall in global oil
demand.
Marcegaglia is a former head of industrial employers' group
Confindustria.
