The UAE organising committee of the 24th World Energy Congress has announced that the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) will be one of the host sponsors for the 2019 congress

The event will take place from 9-12 September 2019 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC).

At the 2019 Abu Dhabi World Energy Congress, ADNOC will highlight how the company is adapting to an ever-changing energy landscape by optimising its resources and maximising value, while leveraging the latest technologies across the entire value chain, continuing the establishment of strategic and long-term partnerships and developing a highly skilled and performance-driven world-class workforce.

Dr Matar Al Neyadi, undersecretary at the UAE Ministry of Energy and Industry and chairman of the UAE organising committee, said, “Our country is committed to developing a sustainable energy mix that maximises our natural resources, while transitioning to clean fossil fuels, nuclear and renewables.”

Omar Suwaina Al Suwaidi, executive office director at ADNOC, commented, “The 2019 edition of the Congress will provide an opportunity for the increasingly diverse energy industry to come together, share insights and create the roadmap for a sustainable energy future.”

The World Energy Congress sets itself apart from other energy and energy-related conferences by covering the entire energy spectrum, from oil and gas to renewables and nuclear as well as power, providing a forum for the industry’s largest and most diverse conversation.

The World Energy Congress, held every three years in select international cities, is one of the leading energy gatherings across the world. This is the first time that the session will be hosted in a Middle East city, and by an OPEC member country, in the event’s 94-year history.
