Being the premier energy exhibition and conference globally, Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference stands as a pivotal force in furthering the achievements of COP28 and the UAE Consensus. It serves as a crucial venue for energy and allied industries to exhibit actual measures, tangible progress, and trustworthy solutions that support a fair and inclusive energy transition.

We invite you to join us in Abu Dhabi this November to participate in the world’s foremost energy conference and exhibition. This is your chance to contribute to shaping the future energy landscape, today.

At Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference, an extensive program featuring both strategic and technical conferences will address the most critical issues and trends within the energy sector. This includes a general Strategic Conference that provides an overarching view of the industry’s strategic direction, alongside specialized forums such as the Hydrogen Strategic Conference focused on hydrogen’s emerging role, the Decarbonisation Strategic Conference that explores carbon reduction across industries, the Manufacturing & Industrialisation Strategic Conference examining the sector’s future, and the Maritime & Logistics Conference, which delves into energy supply chain logistics.

Additionally, the event features a Technical Conference with an open call for papers, inviting contributions from experts across the field. This segment also covers the Manufacturing & Industrialisation Technical Conference and the Downstream Technical Conference, offering deep technical insights into these critical areas.

The scale of Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference is underscored by its impressive attendance figures, with 184,000 attendees from around the globe, 2,200 exhibitors showcasing cutting-edge solutions, representation from 54 National Oil Companies (NOCs), International Oil Companies (IOCs), National Energy Companies (NECs), and Independent Energy Companies (IECs). The event also hosts 16,500 delegates and 1,600 speakers across its 10 conferences, marking it as a pivotal platform for global dialogue, showcasing latest trends, discussing key challenges, and facilitating partnerships towards a sustainable energy future.

• Strategic Conference: COP28 was a milestone event, launching the first-ever Global Stocktake. It motivated nations and various stakeholders to intensify efforts in combating climate change, prioritized inclusivity, and set ambitious targets to triple renewable energy capacities to at least 11,000 GW and to increase the annual global rate of energy efficiency improvements from approximately 2% to over 4% annually by 2030.

• Hydrogen Strategic Conference: Hydrogen is emerging as a critical element in achieving global net-zero emissions by 2050. In concert with renewable energy, biofuels, and various innovative and traditional technologies, hydrogen is expected to play a significant role in reducing emissions from sectors like steel production, petrochemicals, fertilizers, heavy transport, maritime and air travel, and flexible power generation. It is anticipated that by 2050, hydrogen could account for up to 18% of the yearly reduction in global emissions.

• Decarbonisation Strategic Conference: To achieve global net-zero emissions by 2050, it’s essential to prioritize the transition to sustainable energy across all sectors and economies. This requires a deep transformation in the way industries use, move, and supply energy, calling for critical strategies and initiatives like significant technology investments, expansion of low-carbon energy, phasing out of fossil fuels without carbon capture, and embracing electrification widely. Many view decarbonization as a chance to drive green economic growth, bolster energy security, and protect future generations’ well-being.

• Manufacturing & Industrialisation Strategic Conference: The emergence of cutting-edge technology has transformed the landscape of modern manufacturing, significantly boosting the efficiency of product and material production and distribution. However, manufacturers continue to grapple with the need to adjust to shifting geopolitical landscapes and tackle the effects of climate change.

• Maritime & Logistics Conference: The maritime industry is pivotal in supporting global trade and efficient supply chains, handling 90% of the world’s cargo transport and being essential for the energy sector. With a heavy reliance on traditional fuels, the shipping industry’s shift towards decarbonization promises to diversify the energy mix for heavy industries worldwide.

• Technical Conference CFP Now Open: The 2024 ADIPEC Technical Conference, orchestrated by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), is set to offer unmatched exposure to the forefront of industry insights. It assembles the globe’s most esteemed engineers and technical authorities from throughout the energy sector.

• Manufacturing & Industrialisation Technical Conference: The upcoming 2024 Manufacturing and Industrialization Technical Conference promises to unveil cutting-edge technological advancements spanning the entire manufacturing process. It will provide invaluable insights into future-proofing operations, optimizing performance, and fostering sustainable production practices.

• Downstream Technical Conference: The downstream market is experiencing a notable uptick due to the increasing demand for environmentally friendly products. With global energy demands on the rise, there’s a critical necessity for the downstream sector to maintain flexibility and resilience. Refinery and petrochemical operators must adopt collaborative and innovative approaches to enhance the efficiency and quality of their operations, aligning with current market needs.
