Spotlighting a secure, affordable and
sustainable energy future The UAE will be at the heart of the global dialogue on the future of energy, as more than 40 international ministers gather in Abu Dhabi for ADIPEC 2022, the world’s most influential forum for the energy industry. OSTED BY ABU DHABI National Oil Company (ADNOC), ADIPEC 2022, which takes place from 31 October to 3 November at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, is the global platform for energy leaders to discuss and outline strategies and commitments that will drive the industry towards reducing emissions, meeting decarbonisation goals, and providing invaluable viewpoints on short- and long-term energy outlooks.

Taking place just one week before COP27 in Egypt and one year before COP28 in the UAE, ADIPEC will provide an important platform for industry, innovators and policymakers to demonstrate the strategies, climate action and investment required to help accelerate the
