Eni SpA, Italy's largest oil company, said it may consider buying the 50 per cent stake it doesn't already own in a Union Fenosa SA natural gas venture, adding that current conditions aren't right for a sale.

Eni and Spain's Union Fenosa have a joint venture called Union Fenosa Gas, in which both hold 50 per cent stakes.
