The UAE Organising Committee has announced that the ENOC Group will co-host the 24th World Energy Congress, which will take place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, from 9-12 September 2019
Since its establishment, ENOC has evolved from a local oil and gas company to an integrated energy player with operations covering the entire energy value chain, including exploration and production, refining, lubricant blending, storage, aviation and retail.
In 2016, ENOC announced a new growth strategy to serve Dubai’s growing energy needs, while developing an integrated upstream and downstream energy value chain to drive future growth.
The group has invested in a number of major infrastructure projects, including the expansion of its refinery in Jebel Ali, the construction of its 16.2 km jet fuel pipeline connecting the group’s storage terminals in Jebel Ali to Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai South and the expansion of its retail network across the UAE.
It announced its entry into the Saudi Arabia market and committed last December to build 45 modern fuel service stations over the next five years.
Matar Al Neyadi, undersecretary at the UAE Ministry of Energy and Industry and Chairman of the UAE Organising Committee for the 24th World Energy Congress, said, “ENOC is committed to developing sustainable energy solutions to fulfil the growing demand in the markets they serve, and we’re delighted to welcome them on board as a sponsor. They will have a crucial role to play at the Congress, bringing both local and global expertise to the table, and enhancing existing avenues of dialogue and cooperation across the whole energy spectrum to help the world rethink and resolve its energy challenges.”
Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO of ENOC, added, “By supporting vital industrial platforms such as the World Energy Congress this year, we hope to meet with industry experts to discuss trends and global shifts in our industry and engage in a meaningful dialogue that will formulate strategies for a collaborative, sustainable and innovative future for the energy sector.”
