As part of its presence at ADIPEC, US multinational oil company ExxonMobil will be highlighting a range of technologies. As part of the conference’s technical programme, ExxonMobil scientists and engineers will present six papers and display two posters on topics including seismic imaging, offshore development in the United Arab Emirates, reservoir modeling and enhanced oil recovery.
“As one of the largest energy events in the world, ADIPEC will showcase the latest advances in industry technology,” said Morten Mauritzen, lead country manager for the ExxonMobil companies in Abu Dhabi. “In addition to our participation in the technical programme and exhibition, ExxonMobil is proud to sponsor ADIPEC’s first Graduate Fair, which will help introduce students from the UAE to careers in the oil and gas industry.”
ExxonMobil participates in two oil concessions in Abu Dhabi. The company holds a 28% interest in the Upper Zakum offshore field, one of the world’s largest oil fields, which is operated by the ZADCO joint venture company.
The company also participates with a 9.5% interest in the onshore concession, which is operated by the ADCO joint venture company. In 2007, the ExxonMobil Technology Center opened in Abu Dhabi to provide ZADCO staff working on Upper Zakum access to ExxonMobil’s technology in the areas of reservoir management, drilling technologies and production operations.
