Eni SpA, Italy’s biggest oil company, was granted a 20 percent cut in a European Union fine for colluding on prices of a synthetic rubber used to make diving equipment, shoe soles and condoms.

The EU General Court in Luxembourg reduced the company’s fine to 106.2 million euros ($138.8 million) from 132.2 million euros in a ruling today. The legal reasoning was kept confidential at the parties’ request.
