This year, ADIPEC is taking place from 31 October to 3 November in Abu Dhabi, just a week before UN COP27 Climate Conference in Egypt.
Hosted by Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (ADNOC), ADIPEC 2022 will focus on helping the enegy industry tackle the dual challenge of responding to the growing energy needs of today with fewer emissions, and investing in the systems of tomorrow. The mega-event will see energy leaders come together to discuss and outline strategies and commitments to drive the energy industry towards reducing emissions, meeting decarbonisation goals, and sharing expertise on short- and long-term energy outlooks.
This year, ADIPEC’s conference programme will focus on five strategic themes:
- The long-term impact of geopolitics on the global economy and energy industry
- The road to COP27 and COP28
- An industry transition: adapting to the new fundamentals of supply, low carbon and new energy solutions
- Innovation and the energy transition: pioneering a new era of technology development
- The new management agenda: future workforce and the leaders of tomorrow
ADIPEC’s net-zero focus
This year, ADIPEC has introduced the decarbonisation zone that reflects the growing need for decarbonisation strategies in the energy industry. The zone will be a forum for leaders in the energy ecosystem to discuss low-carbon technologies, and the essential role the oil and gas sector plays in accelerating the transition from fossil fuels to cleaner forms of energy.
The decarbonisation of global energy will be central to limiting average global warming to achieve net zero by 2050. The decarbonisation zone will be the centre of that conversation, with the most influential energy providers reinforcing their strategies and discussing low-carbon technologies as they navigate the route to decarbonisation.
Like every year, the conference will also be a platform to share insights on the latest global issues affecting energy markets, including geopolitical shifts, the evolving global economy, energy supply challenges and next generation energy solutions.
Tayba Al Hashemi, CEO of ADNOC Sour Gas and chair of ADIPEC 2022 said: “ADIPEC is helping advance a pragmatic and progressive global energy transition. It plays a powerful role supporting industry as they tackle the dual missions of delivering the world’s energy needs of today, while investing in the energy systems of the future. The 2022 agenda reflects the realities of the changing global energy and geopolitical landscapes, with the energy trilemma of balancing cost, sustainability, and security in sharp focus for populations and energy producers around the world.”
