Abu Dhabi prepares for ADIPEC 2025, a major global energy event emphasising artificial intelligence, decarbonisation, and innovation, with record-breaking attendance and industry shifting dynamics.
Abu Dhabi is gearing up to reaffirm its position as a global center for energy innovation and technology, with the upcoming ADIPEC 2025 event, scheduled from November 3 to 6 at the ADNEC Centre. This major gathering is taking place under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, and is organized by ADNOC. The event arrives at a time of significant shifts worldwide in the energy landscape—particularly due to the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and the urgent need for sustainable energy solutions.
It’s expected that over 205,000 people from 172 countries will attend ADIPEC 2025, making it a truly comprehensive gathering of the entire energy community. The exhibition will feature about 2,250 companies across 17 halls, showcasing breakthrough innovations and scalable solutions. Attendees will include national oil companies (NOCs), international oil companies (IOCs), national and international energy firms—basically the key industry players—as well as financial institutions, tech innovators, policymakers, and industrial users. The event really highlights Abu Dhabi’s important role as a bridge connecting technology, energy, and industry on a global level.
The conference program is quite ambitious, with two main strands—the Strategic Conference and the Technical Conference—offering more than 380 sessions led by over 1,800 speakers from around the world. These speakers include high-profile figures such as Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei, UAE’s Minister of Energy; Prince Abdulaziz Bin Salman Al Saud, Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Energy; Doug Burgum, the US Secretary of the Interior; plus CEOs from companies like bp, PETRONAS, and innovative AI startups such as Mistral AI. Their participation underscores a strong commitment from different sectors to have meaningful conversations about the future of energy.
A key theme at ADIPEC 2025 is the relationship between AI and energy. The event aims to show how AI is transforming energy systems—making infrastructure smarter, boosting operational efficiency, and speeding up the shift to low-carbon solutions. This focus is reflected in the expanded AI Zone, where live demos will showcase AI’s potential to change the game. Interestingly enough, nearly 20% of the record-breaking 7,086 paper submissions to the Technical Conferences focus on practical AI and digital innovations — a clear sign of how much the sector is pushing for real-world application and system-wide change.
Beyond AI, ADIPEC 2025 is launching the Low Carbon & Chemicals Expo, which emphasizes Abu Dhabi’s dedication to pioneering low-carbon technologies. This new addition will highlight advances in areas like hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, carbon capture, energy storage, chemicals, and clean energy tech. It’s a move that broadens the conversation to include vital industries that support the energy transition.
The Strategic Conference covers a range of pressing, high-stakes topics through ten thematic areas, including emerging markets, natural gas and LNG, downstream and chemical industries, diversity and leadership, and digitalization including AI. This broad agenda really highlights the variety of challenges and opportunities the sector faces—from economic shifts to sustainability and inclusivity. Backed by leading knowledge partners like BCG, Wood Mackenzie, Deloitte, KPMG, and Accenture, ADIPEC offers a strong platform for data-driven insights and strategic foresight.
More than just a forum, the event aims to drive tangible progress. As Thomas Loffler, Senior Vice President at dmg events—who organize ADIPEC—mentioned: “In today’s complex world, progress depends on harnessing all technologies—from artificial intelligence to low-carbon solutions—and linking every part of the energy ecosystem.” It’s about more than just talking; ADIPEC is about creating real partnerships and investments that are critical for industry resilience and sustainable growth.
People from all sorts of sectors—including government, industry, finance, and academia—will come together to share and debate best practices for decarbonization and energy security. Companies like DNV will bring insights based on market trends related to the energy transition, reinforcing ADIPEC’s collaborative approach to tackling climate and energy challenges head-on.
ADIPEC 2025 is taking place during the UAE’s Year of Community, which emphasizes social and economic development alongside environmental initiatives. By bringing together such a diverse group of stakeholders, the event aims to unlock innovative solutions and investments that can handle the world’s growing and changing energy needs.
In conclusion, ADIPEC 2025 really puts Abu Dhabi at the heart of the global energy conversation—combining innovation, AI, and decarbonization all under one roof. With record-breaking attendance and a focus on actionable outcomes, it reflects the rapid pace of transformation needed to address energy security, climate change, and socioeconomic progress in the decades ahead.
