Following record nominations for the Middle East Energy Awards, the shortlist has been announced by the hosting editors.
A judging panel of industry experts will now deliberate on the best in each category, with the winners announced at a gala event on 23 February.
The awards will celebrate the energy projects, initiatives, individuals and the companies that have changed the way we use energy in the Middle East.
Covering the upstream, downstream and utilities sector, including renewables, the awards include a wide range of categories to ensure the participation of the full value chain.
We are also very excited to be able to host this event physically, under strict adherence to safety guidelines. The awards ceremony is a great occasion to recognise the progress that the oil and gas industry has made in the past year, and is an equally strong opportunity to catch up with colleagues and peers in the industry, and to meet and network with industry leaders from across the value chain.
We encourage every reader to join us in recognising the major innovations and achievements across the energy sector. Book your table before 28 January to avail the super early bird discount!
