Abu Dhabi, UAE: ADNOC’s executive leadership, chaired by His Excellency Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, and Managing Director and Group CEO of ADNOC, convened in Al Dhannah City to discuss key priorities and strategic projects as the company grows its diversified portfolio to ensure a secure, reliable and responsible supply of energy to support a just, orderly and equitable global energy transition.
H.E.

H.E.

We have been entrusted to prioritize transformational growth, accelerate decarbonization, drive further growth in renewables, with a particular focus on our investment in Masdar, the UAE’s renewable energy champion, and invest in lower-carbon solutions and further diversify our energy portfolio. At the same time, we will continue to be a catalyst for domestic growth, while driving in-country value and prioritizing UAE talent development.”
To deliver on this transformational mandate, H.E. Dr. Al Jaber also stressed that the Company would continue to ensure an inspiring culture and working environment while upskilling UAE Youth and deploying cutting-edge technology. This includes the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to drive performance and efficiency and unlock value across its operations.
During the gathering, H.E. Dr. Al Jaber launched and hosted a dedicated “Youth Changemakers Majlis” where he highlighted the importance of ADNOC Youth in driving decarbonization and delivering on the energy transition. H.E. Dr. Al Jaber emphasized that, as future leaders, ADNOC Youth will play a pivotal role in future-proofing the company as ADNOC continues to prioritize and invest in world-class technology and innovation to ensure a just and equitable energy transition.
