Welcome From The UAE Minister of Energy & Industry 

Supported By 

His Excellency 

Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei 

Minister of Energy & Industry 

UAE 

Dear colleagues 

Welcome to Abu Dhabi and to the 2019 edition of the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference 

(ADIPEC), held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United 

Arab Emirates. 

We are well and truly moving into the Fourth Industrial Age, where change is constant and influencing every aspect of 

our economy, our industry and our infrastructure – and the oil and gas sector is certainly no exception. Just looking 

at the technological marvels on show at ADIPEC this year, reveals the extent of innovation and transformation in 

this vital industry. 


Of course, we must realise that the Fourth Industrial Age is about much more than the cloud, robots and big data. 

We must find new ways to produce more sustainably in the face of environmental challenges; we must build strong 

partnerships with both traditional and non-traditional energy players; and we must continue to nurture and attract 

the best minds of the next generation to our industry. 

I remain confident for the future of the industry, especially when I see the innovation on show at ADIPEC. I am 

convinced of the ability of technology to transform industrial models in the best interests not only of bottom lines, 

of energy security and supply, but also of the environment. 

In the oil and gas industry, we must embrace the Fourth Industrial Age. It is part of the here and now. We must 

welcome its challenges. We must take advantage of its opportunities. ADIPEC fills me with great confidence that 

we are on the right path and well prepared for the long term growth and prosperity of the industry. 

On behalf of the Ministry of Energy and Industry, it is my pleasure to welcome you to ADIPEC 2019, Abu Dhabi and 

the UAE.

Welcome From The ADIPEC Conference Chairman 

Omar Suwaina Al Suwaidi 

Director, Executive Office Directorate, ADNOC 

ADIPEC 2019 Conference Chairman 

Dear Industry Colleagues, 

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 2019 edition of the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Conference, 

the world’s premier gathering of the oil and gas industry, being held in Abu Dhabi under the patronage of His 

Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates. 

Hosted by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), ADIPEC provides a strategic platform to reconnect 

with colleagues, address critical issues and redefine our common path forward. It is taking place at a time of 

opportunity for our industry as we enter the 4th industrial age and the demand for hydrocarbon products and 

derivatives continues to grow. That said, we cannot ignore the shifting dynamics of the global energy mix. How we 

meet the world’s future energy needs responsibly and economically will be discussed at the inaugural Oil & Gas 4.0 

Strategic Roundtables, as we collectively help shape a transformative agenda for sustainable, long-term growth, 

based on a renewed spirit of partnership, shared industry best practices, the deployment of advanced technologies, 

empowerment of our talent and enhanced environmental stewardship. 

This year at ADIPEC we will host a series of Keynote speeches and, for the first time, a series of Live Sessions, over 

four days, with renowned speakers who will provide insights into a range of important topics impacting how we 

do business. At this year’s opening ceremony, former US Secretary of State Condolezza Rice will provide a unique 

insight into Managing 21st century political risk and the issues that companies will need to navigate to ensure they 

successfully create organisational resilience in the years ahead. This will be complimented, during the Live Sessions, 

by General (ret.) David Patraeus, Chairman KKR Global Institute, who will discuss the impact of geopolitics and 

economic changes on our industry. Separately, in another keynote address, Sebastian Thrun, CEO of Kittyhawk and 

Founder of Google X Lab, Google Glass and Google Self-Driving Car will look at which potential disruptors the oil 

and gas industry must embrace to develop and scale new capabilities. 

Organised by dmg events, the ADIPEC Conference will also feature Ministerial and Policy sessions; Keynote 

Addresses; 13 Global Business Leaders sessions; Inclusion and Diversity sessions and 123 technical sessions 

covering Upstream, Midstream and Downstream, involving over 1,000 speakers from across the world. Meanwhile, 

the event’s largest ever exhibition will feature a record breaking 2,200+ companies, including 47 NOCs and IOCs 

and 29 country pavilions. Once again, the Middle East Petroleum Club (MEPC), is a key feature of ADIPEC. An 

exclusive club, MEPC allows key decision makers and CEOs to meet and share insights within a discrete and secure 

environment. Meanwhile, the ADIPEC Awards, which has received a record number of entries this year, will honour 

organisations and individuals addressing the challenges our industry faces, leveraging emerging trends, promoting 

inclusion and diversity, as well as contributing to social development and community empowerment. 

I would like to extend my appreciation to the UAE Ministry of Energy, The Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and 

Industry, the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi for their support for ADIPEC, as well as the Executive 

and Technical Committees, exhibitors, sponsors, delegates, visitors and media. 

I wish you a successful four days at ADIPEC 2019.

Welcome From The UAE Department of Culture and 

Tourism Undersecretary 

Saif Saeed Ghobash 

Undersecretary 

Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi 

Esteemed delegates, exhibitors and visitors, 

On behalf of the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi, we are pleased to welcome you to the 

Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference. 

ADIPEC is the world’s leading oil and gas conference, and the highlight of this industry’s annual calendar, 

during which we welcome trade professionals, exhibitors and expert speakers from all corners of the world to 

congregate in this truly global city. 


Each year, we are proud to see that ADIPEC continues to flourish and grow in size and reputation, due to the 

in-depth programme of events, workshops, discussions and presentations, all of which accurately advocate and 

analyse the latest developments in this cutting-edge industry. 

ADIPEC is also an important component in Abu Dhabi’s burgeoning reputation as the premier venue for worldclass 

conventions and conferences. The Abu Dhabi Convention Bureau, with the backing of the Abu Dhabi 

Government’s Ghadan 21 accelerator programme, is playing a crucial role in the business events industry, making 

our emirate a dynamic global leader in this field. This, as well as our ultra-modern facilities and infrastructure, 

luxurious hotels, and exceptional leisure attractions, means there has never been a better time to conduct 

business in Abu Dhabi. 

As well as utilising ADIPEC for professional reasons, we also hope you use your leisure time to explore the city 

and surrounding area beyond the conference, as Abu Dhabi will undoubtedly exceed your expectations and 

leave you with unforgettable memories. 

As a destination, Abu Dhabi mixes state-of-the-art modernity with traditional cultural experiences, offering 

visitors an exceptional mix of old and new. An example of this is Louvre Abu Dhabi, the Middle East’s first and 

only universal museum, which details the rich artistic legacy of the region, as well as civilisational masterpieces 

from across the globe. 

Another addition to our portfolio of attractions is the Al Hosn site, home to the newly reopened Cultural 

Foundation, which is dedicated to the creation and appreciation of Emirati art, as well as Qasr Al Hosn Fort, the 

historic landmark that has become the symbolic heart of Abu Dhabi. 

Further afield is Al Ain, the ancient garden city which houses a unique collection of UNESCO World Heritage 

Sites detailing our authentic Arabian culture and demonstrating that the inhabitation of the area stretches back 

millennia. 

Meanwhile, more exhilarating experiences and adventures can be found on Yas Island, the leisure hub of Abu 

Dhabi, where some of the world’s most thrilling theme parks, including Warner Bros. World and Ferrari World 

Abu Dhabi, can be found. 

Further details about all of our events and attractions are available on our dedicated website 

www.visitabudhabi.com – and can be also be found by downloading the Visit Abu Dhabi App. 

Let me conclude by wishing you a productive and constructive time at ADIPEC and an unforgettable experience 

in Abu Dhabi.

Welcome From dmg events 

Jean-Philippe Cossé 

Vice President Global Energy 

dmg events 

On behalf of dmg events and our event host, the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), we welcome you 

to Abu Dhabi and the 2019 edition of the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference (ADIPEC), 

held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab 

Emirates. 

As the global energy landscape shifts to Digitalisation, AI and Big Data, oil and gas companies will need to evolve, 

cooperate, integrate and adapt to the 4.0 era. New patterns of energy demand are emerging and digitalisation is 

affecting each and every aspect of our lives. 


At ADIPEC last year, ADNOC unveiled ‘Oil & Gas 4.0’ – a strategy designed to embrace the opportunities of 

the 4th Industrial Age as new technologies are adopted and implemented, new partnerships formed, personnel 

are empowered and sustainable leadership comes to the forefront as a new mandate. By extension, ADIPEC 

Oil & Gas 4.0, the strategic conference at ADIPEC 2019, will host discussions that will shape the future of the 

energy sector in this new environment as companies thrive to unlock new value, grow market share, retain their 

competitive edge and adapt to the changing environment around them. 

ADIPEC is one of the world’s largest and most important oil and gas events that brings together the industry’s 

full value chain from government ministers, CEOs, policy makers, think tanks and senior industry executives 

including technology experts and market analysts. This year’s exhibition will be the largest in the event’s 35- 

year history, spanning 160,000 sqm gross and accommodating a record breaking 51 exhibiting National and 

International Oil Companies. More than 150,000 energy professionals from 167 countries are projected to attend 

the event to understand what more than 2,200 exhibiting companies, including 23 exhibiting national country 

pavilions have in store for the industry. 

Join more than 10,400 conference delegates to experience four days of 160+ high profile panels, technical 

conferences, roundtables and live sessions that focus on key aspects of oil and gas in the fourth industrial 

age. Hear from the industry leaders and executives that determine the future of the industry, the experts driving 

change across the value chain, and the energy ministers and government officials shaping the future of policy. 

Don’t forget to visit our Young ADIPEC programme in hall 14 that enables the oil and gas industry to engage 

and inspire the youth of today to consider their future career opportunities, at the same time as offering a clear 

understanding of how the oil & gas sector plays an important role in today’s energy mix and the impact on the 

everyday world around them. The digitalisation zone located in Hall 14 provides first hand exposure of the 

transitional changes that are shaping tomorrow’s industry and the Offshore & Marine sector in Hall 15, highlights 

the technologies and changes facing the offshore sector as it undergoes a milestone transition as part of its new 

environmentally conscious journey. 

On behalf of dmg::events, I would like to thank our key stakeholders, sponsors and supporters - the UAE 

Ministry of Energy and Industry, ADNOC, the ADIPEC Executive and Technical Committees and the city of Abu 

Dhabi, including all the Government Departments that support the event behind the scenes, for facilitating and 

contributing to the success of such a global event. 

I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible over the coming days.

As a new age for our industry beckons, ministers and policymakers come together at 

ADIPEC to put in place oil and gas strategies and policy capable of navigating a number of 

new industry and country dynamics. 

High level discussions will be taking place around new energy systems, policies, strategic 

decisions and economic growth, revolving around the 4th Industrial Revolution and how are 

leaders creating conditions for Nations to embrace the benefits of this transformation. 

Dr Carole Nakhle 

Founder & Chief Executive Officer 

Crystol Energy 



Energy systems at a global, regional 

and local level are responding to 

the pressures of environment, 

affordability and access 

What policy measures need to be in place to ensure a 

successful transition; ensuring access to new sources of 

supply, new forms of competition and reducing the cost energy 

for industry and consumer alike?

Attendee Insights 

For attendees responsible for investment decisions, policy 

formulation and building strategic partnerships in existing and 

new markets. 


The 4th Industrial revolution is upon 

us. One of its critical assumptions will 

be access to affordable energy 

How will policy makers ensure industrial and energy policy work 

together to ensure the economic benefits of this new industrial age 

are secured? 


Linking industrial and energy policy is a fundamental tenant 

to creating conditions for economic growth. Attendees with 

responsibility for future growth assumptions and plans will gain a 

unique insight on the opportunities and importantly the barriers 

the panel identifies and discusses.

Global Business Leaders Sessions 

Global industry leaders and influencers come together at ADIPEC to connect, innovate and make change during ADIPEC’s Global 

Business Leaders Panels. 

These panels will gather top industry influencers to discuss what strategies are being developed to enable companies entering into 

new markets, attract new opportunities, develop key partnerships, people, and embrace the new ventures this new era of 4.0 is 

presenting. 



Oil and Gas 4.0: the nexus of 

technology and energy 

How are companies empowering this step change in the 

development and delivery of the global energy system? What are 

the new strategies industry leading companies have embarked 

upon to capture growth, enable portfolio diversification and 

secure their position in the years ahead? 


A must attend for industry attendees and 

commentators seeking to better understand 

the pivot the industry is undertaking. A unique 

insight opportunity into the strategy playbook of 

the leading companies in the industry. 


How is the industry embracing 

digital innovation? 

The oil and gas industry’s need for growth is going through 

unescapable change. New energy trading maps, the 

changing nature of supply and demand, electrification and 

local industrial manufacturing are all demanding new ways 

of working. How are today’s tech trends and the continued

Market volatility, trading policies and 

international agreements: what does 

the future hold? 

Oil price volatility and ambiguity over global trade agreements 

often lead to uncertainty in global economic growth and 

unpredictable market conditions. Can and will the OPEC Alliance 

continue to support the balance of energy markets? Will the 

emergence of new regional trading hubs help balance markets? 

What new charters and frameworks can we expect? In addition, 

can industry, policy makers and global Think Tanks collaborate 

further to better align energy policy objectives and outcomes?

Harnessing the potential of an 

inclusive, diverse and engaged 

workforce to transform organisational 

agendas 

People create the basis of a successful business fostering 

development, innovation and creativity. In today’s new era of Oil 

& Gas 4.0, business leaders are expected to do more to stand 

out especially when it comes to managing their pool of talent. 

How will the industry lead its existing and future employees 

differently? What are the unique initiatives being implemented 

that bridge disparity in gender, racial and ethnic diversity? How 

are business models being reinvented to attract and include 

millennials, women and minorities capitalising on the skill sets 

they bring? 


Business leaders across all components of the oil and gas 

value chain will gain a better understanding from the session, 

of the actions they will need to take to ensure their workforce 

is aligned in a manner that will contribute to their own

New strategies to accelerate the 

industry’s response to 

environmental pressures 

A successful energy transition to a lower carbon world requires 

that oil and gas is supplied in a way that minimises adverse social 

and environmental impact. An increasing number of countries, 

jurisdictions, and companies have announced targets or goals 

to ensure that oil and gas meets certain environmental targets. 

What further steps will the industry need to take to reduce indirect 

GHG emissions associated with the production, processing, 

transmission, refining, and distribution of oil and gas? 


All attendees will need to have in place 

strategies for dealing with the existing 

and future environmental agenda. The

The future of energy and the role of 

oil and gas 

The future energy landscape is highly uncertain. Population 

growth and the rise of the middle class in the developing world 

point to a significant increase in energy demand. But at the same 

time, there are significant pressures to decarbonise the fuel mix. 

Just how quickly will the world decarbonise, and what are the 

implications for oil and gas?

what are the strategic implications of this for both NOCs and

How are oil and gas companies responding 

to energy transition? What more can we 

expect in the years ahead? 

With global energy demand rising and oil and gas still remaining an 

essential part of the global energy mix, companies must adopt and 

embrace the challenge to comply with governmental policies that require 

a step change and a commitment to more sustainable hydrocarbons. 

How are majors adopting these changes and what strategies are being 

developed? What technologies are being adopted? Are there specific 

investment opportunities and funds being allocated? And how the leaders 

of today can accelerate the energy transition with innovation, commitment 

and drive this global transformation towards a lower-carbon future. 

This Live Session will feature a conversation with Lord John Browne of 

Madingley on how oil and gas companies are leading this transformation 

and what steps companies must adopt to combat climate change and

but the humans employed. Jamie Woodruff will be discussing these topics 

in this Live Session and how hackers today are using social engineering to 

access businesses; how to improve employees awareness; who is better 

equipped to spot attacks, and will ethical hackers leapfrog criminal hackers 

to gain the upper hand, or are we doomed to a world where the criminal 

hacker will always be one step ahead?

Inclusion & Diversity in Energy 

Fostering diverse and inclusive oil and gas workplaces - as oil and gas businesses focus on diversification, collaboration, integration 

and rapid adaptation to changing technology, a new era beckons in managing human capital that the industry must adapt to. 

DAY 4 Thursday 14 November 2019 

08:30 – 09:30 


Registration, Coffee & Coaching 

Today’s organisations constantly seek to attract, retain and develop the best talent, irrespective of ethnicities, origins or other forms 

of diversity. Companies and brands must adapt, change and connect the workplace with the marketplace. To build a strong Inclusion 

and Diversity brand there needs to be a partnership between internal departments and how a company manages its customers, 

enhancing all parties’ relationship and business experience. 

To support the creation of a successful Inclusion and Diversity identity and communications strategy, ADIPEC Inclusion and Diversity 

in Energy Programme introduces coaching sessions. 

Three mentors will be discussing and coaching, in a roundtable informal setting, key topics and challenges employees face in the 

workplace. Delegates can choose which roundtable they would like to attend: 

• Roundtable 1: Harnessing the power of effective communication on Inclusion and Diversity to your colleagues and business partners 

Led by: 

Anca Westley 

Head - Events & Special Projects 

ADNOC 

• Roundtable 2: Developing a company’s Inclusion and Diversity vision and strategy: Internal vs external brand awareness. 

Led by: 


Founder and Chief Executive Officer 


• Roundtable 3: Building your personal brand: From networking to digital brand building. 

Led by: 

09:40 – 10:10

10:10 – 11:10 


‘Ask Me Anything’: Inclusion and Diversity thought leaders respond to questions from 

the audience 

Bringing the famous ‘AMA’ offline, a panel of Inclusion and Diversity thought leaders will take questions from the audience on topics 

ranging from challenges women and minorities face at work; challenges recruiters face in hiring and retaining women, people 

of colour, people with special abilities, and minorities in the workforce and the trends and opportunities in driving inclusion and 

belonging within organisations. 

The panel will have no pre-set topics, or agenda. You can share your questions during the session, and the moderator will ask the 

questions on the stage on your behalf. 

Please note: Only questions related to workplace inclusion and diversity, and personal career challenges will be accepted.

Diversity Dialogues: Balance for Better: How can you be an ally? 


This session will be led by two panelists and a moderator. A third person will be invited to join the discussion from the audience every 

10 minutes to encourage open dialogue and ensure a diversity of opinions are shared. Topics covered will include: 

• Engaging with the majority: Learning about behaviours, cultural biases to positively transform your workforce, empower minorities and people with 

special abilities. 

• From Board to the organisation: Creating a talent strategy, with a top bottom accountability approach and leading with authenticity, empathy, and 

collaboration. 

• Empowering young talent: Utilising reverse mentorship initiatives to enable skills exchange with older employees and harnessing the potential of 

diverse cultures and age groups. 

• Role models vs real models: Why is it important for companies to showcase real people to build a brand, and how transparency can enable them 

to attract talent to their business?

Digital transformation and innovation 

- implementing oil and gas 4.0 Across 

the whole value chain 

Panel Chair 

Speakers 

The full adaptation of digital technology has been challenging 

for companies, multiple reasons can be sited for that, but the 

main colbert for failure has been the MOC processes and the 

willingness of employees to adapt to new ways.

Oil and gas has always been very technology driven industry. 

The use of sensors (IOT) and the Data generated by them has 

always been at the core of the industry for safe and reliable 

operations.Oil and Gas 4.0 is to position Oil companies in the 

heart of digital transformation and be a leader in the AI and 

Digital technology development. 


Adapting new innovations into the oil and gas industry is 

challenging, Oil and gas has been a conservative industry, rightly 

so do to the safety risk associated with operations. 

How can the mind set of agile and progressive be impeded into 

the oil and gas company of the future?

Unconventional – the next 

Step change 

For unconventional assets development of new technologies 

to drill, completed and fractured wells, as well as technologies 

and methods for the better understanding and identification of 

sweet spots proved to be essential. While today’s technology 

advancements have become gamechangers, there is still 

plenty of room for growth. We’ve got to make a step change in 

technology and operations to maximise the value of our current 

and future assets. 

Over the past 5 years, we have delivered minimal major 

breakthrough technologies. We’ve continued making small 

tweaks to well landing zone, perforation cluster spacing, 

proppant development, fluid volumes, placement design etc. 

Recently, the industry realised that data is an asset, and our 

challenge is how to use it, which also provides us with countless 

opportunities to utilise data analytics and machine learning. 

Collectively, we are incumbent to develop the next generation 

of game changing technologies, and enhance industry 

collaboration, and best practices amongst world oil and gas 

producers. The Next Step Change is here now!

Addressing the human capital 

challenge – recruiting for oil & gas 

4.0 And the millennial managed 

organisation 

Panel Chair 

Speakers 

The world is changing. Oil & Gas industry is changing. So, 

we also need to change to stay competitive and deliver our 

strategies. We’re in the midst of a significant transformation 

regarding the way we produce products thanks to the digitisation 

of manufacturing. This transition is so compelling that it is being 

called Industry 4.0 to represent the fourth revolution that has 

occurred in manufacturing. While many organisations might still 

be in denial about how Industry 4.0 could impact their business 

or struggling to find the talent or knowledge to know how to 

best adopt it for their unique use cases, several others are 

implementing changes today and preparing for a future where 

smart machines improve their business.

Creating industry partnerships 

to maximise operational and 

commercial value 

According to the IEA 2018 energy outlook the global energy 

demand is set to grow by a 25% between today and 2040 

with oil and gas constituting a minimum of 50% of this energy 

demand. However the backdrop of a price volatility in the second 

half of 2018, other technological (and digital) market disruptions 

and the demands by society for a reduction in GHG emissions 

leaves energy companies confronting a turning point that 

requires setting different strategies to thrive in uncertain times. 

A relentless focus to extract more value from projects and 

assets through innovation, increased operational efficiencies and 

reduced capital and operating expenditures is therefore a must. 

Going it alone is not an option, this will require value based 

collaborations across the industry.

New business models for oil and gas 

– integrating operators and service 

providers 

Panel Chair 

Speakers 

The devastating drop in oil prices in 2014 and subsequent long 

recovery has had a lasting impact on our industry. One of the 

consequences has been a rethink of the traditional business 

models. 

Since the inception of the oil and gas industry there have been 

clear lines between operators, drilling contractors and service 

companies. Now, in an effort to optimise costs, those lines are 

becoming blurred. 

Ibrahim Al Alawi 

Deputy CEO 

AlMansoori 

Ayman Khattab 

President 

Gulf and North Africa 

Baker Hughes 

Thomas Burke 


EnscoRowan 

This overlap of responsibilities and roles raises a whole new set 

of questions. Operators traditionally try to maximise hydrocarbon 

recovery whereas drilling contractors and service companies 

strive to maximise returns on their investments. If a drilling 

contractor or service company becomes the operator, which 

priority takes precedence? Can an operator drill or service wells 

as effectively as a drilling contractor or service company? 

Etienne Roux 

President 

Drilling and Evaluation 

Weatherford 

David Reid 

Chief Marketing Officer 

NOV 


On this panel, leaders from operators, drilling contractors and 

service companies will share their perspectives on these evolving 

new business models and the drivers behind them. 


Global gas innovators – the new 

generation of gas projects 

Even though the oil and gas business operates within a very 

complex global and national frameworks, it has never failed 

society in respect of delivering affordable and reliable supplies 

of oil and natural gas. The industry is overshadowed by the 

significant structural shift in the energy market, complex global 

supply chains, greenhouse emission, and shift in supply/ 

demand pattern, which are increasing the complexity and 

risk of developing large-scale gas projects. However, these 

factors, coupled with an increasingly competitive market and 

delivering competitive prices, are driving a renewed focus on 

unconventional solutions to improve efficiency, operational 

excellence, and environmental footprint within oil and gas 

operators. 

This executive panel will examine lessons learned from the 

past in developing large-scale gas projects, best practices, 

and recent innovation in developing such projects. Also, it will 

examine how gas projects are impacted by many factors such 

as trends in the global supply/demand, structural change of the 

energy market, the new digital era, the shift in the innovation 

landscape, greenhouse emission, and global shortage and 

competition for talent.
