ADIPEC 2022 will witness global dialogue on the future of energy, as industry leaders, policy-makers and innovators from around the world are set to gather in Abu Dhabi from October 31 to November 3 for ADIPEC, the world’s most influential forum for the energy industry.
The event is taking place at a time of unprecedented complexity in energy market and the global economy, as industry and governments work to achieve energy security and advance climate goals at the same time.
The flagship global energy event will engage the global sector in helping answer the industry’s most pressing questions under the theme of ‘The Future of Energy: Secure, Affordable and Sustainable’ and will play an important role in spotlighting the energy needs of today, with fewer emissions, and also working towards a clean energy future.
The event will highlight the balanced approach needed to advance a successful energy transition: fast-tracking decarbonisation of today’s energy sources, while diversifying into future energies. Taking place the week before COP27 in Egypt, and as the UAE prepares to host COP28, a particular focus will be on how the industry is delivering on climate action, turning Net Zero commitments into realised emission reduction.
Suhail Al Mazrouei, UAE’s minister of energy and Infrastructure, said: “This year, global industry must use the event to highlight the action they are taking to meet the world’s energy needs and rapidly decarbonise oil and gas production, while investing to diversify into new and cleaner energy sources.”
“As the UAE prepares to host COP28, we have already made clear that it will be a COP that gives a voice to all parts of society, developed and developing countries, the public and private sector including a responsible energy industry, as we build momentum in the transition. ADIPEC is a powerful global platform that can help present the possibilities of a more inclusive approach by welcoming the solutions and skills of the energy industry of today, in shaping the future of energy.”
ADIPEC 2022 will be opened with a keynote address by Dr Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, and ADNOC’s group CEO, who is also UAE’s Special Envoy for Climate Change.
