Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) on Wednesday announced that it will welcome 27 of the world’s leading oil industry chief executives in Abu Dhabi next Sunday, 11 November in the third Abu Dhabi CEO Roundtable.
The CEOs will tackle the impact of digitalisation, technology and the Fourth Industrial Age on the future of the international oil and gas industry.
The event will be held under the Chatham House Rule to increase the openness of discussion, providing a high-level forum for dialogue on the evolving dynamics of the energy industry, state-run WAM news agency reported.
“As we enter the fourth industrial age, the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries have a critical role to play in enabling the step change in global growth, by ensuring economies have the energy and energy-based products they need,” Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of State and ADNOC Group CEO, said.
The event will take place on the eve of the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC), and it is considered one of the world’s largest and most influential events for the international oil and gas industry.
“The Abu Dhabi CEO Roundtable is an ideal platform for leaders from the oil, gas and petrochemical sector to exchange views, share best practices and discuss solutions that can unlock greater opportunities now and into the future,” Al Jaber added.
