“Knowledge Dissemination Critical in Today’s Evolving Energy Landscape,” says ADCO Chief and Awards Chairman Winners to be Named at Prestigious Gala Dinner and Ceremony on ADIPEC Opening Day Abu Dhabi, UAE - 21 October 2015 - The Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC), one of the world’s leading energy events, today announced the 33 shortlisted entries across eight categories for the 2015 edition of the ADIPEC Awards. The distinguished and internationally coveted accolades celebrate achievement in energy, and recognise the leading companies, individuals, initiatives, projects, and technologies that have demonstrated excellence - further cementing Abu Dhabi’s position as a global hub for knowledge-exchange in the oil and gas industry. Driving the ADIPEC Awards growth and success is the pressing need for sharing best and sustainable practice, says Mr. Abdul Munim Saif Al Kindy, Chief Executive Officer of the Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil Operations Ltd., (ADCO), and ADIPEC Awards Chairman. “Today, companies are looking for ways they can optimise their operational efficiencies and sustainably enhance exploration and production while meeting the world’s growing demand for energy,” Mr. Al Kindy said. “The Awards enable industry peers to shed light on some of the world’s greatest projects, people, and ideas. This dissemination of knowledge and best practice is critical now more than ever in today’s evolving energy landscape.” The ADIPEC Awards received a record 501 submissions from 32 countries this year, with participation from 247 organisations from around the world. Posting continuous growth since their launch in 2010, the awards received 105 more submissions than last year, representing six more countries, and with the participation of a remarkable 140 more organisations compared with 2014. Nominees were shortlisted after a meticulous assessment by the Regional Select Jury comprised of 28 experts from across the oil and gas industry. Each shortlisted entry will be thoroughly screened by a minimum of seven judges at the Regional Select Jury Meeting on 21October 2015. Winners and runners-up will be announced at the ADIPEC Awards Gala Dinner, which is hosted by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and takes place at Emirates Palace on 9 November 2015. “Advancing the oil and gas industry can only be achieved by benchmarking success, and the ADIPEC Awards provide the perfect platform for companies to share their achievements in their journey towards sustainability,” said Jean-Philippe Cossé, ADIPEC 2015 Event Director at dmg events. “This year’s selection demonstrates how far the industry, both in the region and worldwide, has come because of its tireless efforts and unwavering commitment to progress, be it in research and development, innovation and technology, or corporate social responsibility.” Forming the cornerstone of the four-day exhibition and conference, the three companies shortlisted per category and subcategory for the ADIPEC 2015 Awards are as follows (companies listed in alphabetical order): Category 1 - Best Oil & Gas Mega Project International Petroleum Investment Company
