POWERING PROGRESS WITH PURPOSE
Driven by a commitment to energy security, innovation, and sustainable growth, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) stands at the forefront of the evolving energy industry. Established to support and stabilise the UAE’s economy, ADNOC has emerged as one of the world’s most influential energy companies.
ADNOC is born out of the founder Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s vision of leveraging the country’s natural resources for the betterment of society and for future sustenance in terms of economic prosperity. Over the years, ADNOC has grown into an integrated energy giant in every segment of the downstream and upstream business in the hydrocarbon industry. Presently, it has an entire series of subsidiaries that include businesses in exploring, producing, refining, petrochemicals, transportation, logistics, and low-carbon energy solutions and remains an ally for over 50 countries in the world.
FUELLED BY INNOVATION
One of the defining qualities of ADNOC is its passion for innovation. It has taken the digital transformation of its business to unprecedented levels, incorporating artificial intelligence tools and intelligent technologies in its business processes. Its Digital Command Center is an epitome of efficiency in monitoring and making decisions on the entire value chain of its business. Future-proofing has not only optimised efficiency for the business, it has also ensured that it is in sync internationally on sustainability issues. Its full downstream expansion, in partnership with world-class companies and an aggressive industrialisation strategy, has consolidated its role as an important world-scale supplier of product, petrochemicals, and industrial solutions. In addition, the creation of one of the world’s largest integrated refining and petrochemicals centers at Ruwais Industrial City signifies its dedication to innovation-driven national development.
Powering Progress with Purpose
Sustainability is at the core identity and values of ADNOC. From inception, the corporation has always known the need for protecting natural resources. This comes from Sheikh Zayed’s views of environmental harmony and sustainable development. Now, this is what ADNOC has committed itself to, in keeping with this vision of the past, in taking proactive steps on climate change and in developing low-carbon energy sources.
ADNOC is propelling the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative in carbon capture and storage, scalable hydrogen development, and low-carbon intensive facilities upgrades. Its reliance on grid-based, zero-carbon power in onshore business and its lowest-in-the-world low-carbon intensive oil supply proves ADNOC’s commitment to having a sustainable and resilient energy sector.
Another aspect of importance is the strong commitment that exists in ADNOC in relation to the concept of “Corporate Social Responsibility”. The organisation undertakes comprehensive programs that are aimed at community development in relation to areas such as education, youth programs, health, sports, road safety, and preserving cultures. In this way, the different programs that are initiated by ADNOC aim at contributing to society in every aspect, and this goes beyond the energy sector that it deals in.
AWARDS THAT SPOKE EXCELLENCE
The success of ADNOC has also received international acclaim. It has been ranked in the Top 10 Most Valuable Oil & Gas Brands globally on several occasions and has won awards in relation to sustainability, excellence, digital transformation, and work environments. Its innovative carbon capture programs and environmental leadership efforts have received awards and accolades from prominent international energy and climate-related associations. ADNOC has also been recognised for its superior health, safety, and environmental performance, social investment programs, and role in supporting UAE’s national development.
