Betul, Goa: India has become a “decisive driver of global energy demand,” and the UAE will be its trusted partner in ensuring dependable supply, Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, the emirate’s industry minister, said.
“In an era of constant change, reliable partnerships are the real strategic reserves,” said Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, who is also the CEO of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC).
“As India consumes more crude to fuel its refineries, ADNOC is proud to be a trusted, dependable supplier. As India aims to double natural gas in its energy mix, we have made this nation our number one market for LNG,” he said. The UAE is India’s largest supplier of LPG. It also supplies feedstocks and chemicals for India’s petrochemical and industrial needs.
Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber said the world is witnessing the largest expansion of energy demand in human history. “Behind the current turbulence is a bigger picture of transformation at scale,” he said.
Three megatrends are driving energy demand today: the rise of emerging markets; the exponential growth of AI and the rapid expansion of digital infrastructure; and the transformation of energy systems, he said.
“At the heart of all three megatrends sits one nation — and that is India,” he said.
ADNOC is being reimagined to incorporate advances in AI and other technologies, he said. “In today’s ADNOC, agentic AI systems monitor every well in our portfolio in real time, predicting equipment failures before they happen and optimising production barrel by barrel,” he said. “From the wellhead to the trading floor, we have deployed more than 200 AI tools and 65 robotic applications.”
