what happened
ADIPEC 2026 will bring energy producers, government officials, investors and technology firms to Abu Dhabi from 2 to 5 November. The agenda centres on energy security, infrastructure spending, industrial development and innovation, against a backdrop of strong global demand and geopolitical strain. The event is held under the patronage of the UAE president and hosted by ADNOC at ADNEC.
Organisers expect 239,000 visitors from more than 170 countries, over 2,250 exhibitors, 1,800 speakers and 30 national pavilions. Speakers include energy ministers from the UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, Lebanon and Libya, along with officials from Germany, Türkiye and Japan. Participating companies include ADNOC, XRG, Masdar, TAQA, Shell, bp, TotalEnergies and Microsoft. The opening ceremony moves to the Abu Dhabi Energy Centre to free up extra exhibition space.
The AI Zone, co-hosted by AIQ, will show how artificial intelligence and robotics are used in reservoir modelling, autonomous upstream work, infrastructure inspection, grid management and subsea robotics. The programme includes 13 conference tracks and more than 380 sessions, while the exhibition fills 16 halls and four specialised industry zones.
why it matters
For markets, ADIPEC is a useful signal of where capital is flowing across gas, LNG, chemicals and energy infrastructure. Deals and partnerships announced at the event could show how UAE companies are expanding in global energy projects, while the focus on supply security underlines ongoing demand for LNG and grid capacity.
