WELCOME FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Industry Colleagues
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference (ADIPEC) which takes place 912 November
2015. We are also pleased to announce that ADIPEC 2016 has been confirmed for 710 November; a date for your 2016 diaries.
ADIPEC is held each year at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the United Arab Emirates and the home
city of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company ADNOC. Abu Dhabi has firmly established itself as the regions Energy Capital. As Chairman of ADIPEC 2015,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank DMG Global Energy Events for their continued support in hosting what is now one of the worlds largest
events focusing on the energy sector.
The theme for the ADIPEC 2015 Conference is Innovation & Sustainability in a New Energy World, as selected by the almost 50 industry executives that
form the ADIPEC Conference Executive Steering Committee. Under this theme, DMG and the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) as conference
organisers have developed a large scale and comprehensive programme with 2 Ministerial sessions, 2 plenary sessions, 6 panel sessions, 3 industry
breakfast sessions, 3 topical luncheons, 79 technical sessions, and numerous knowledge sharing ePoster sessions. The 2015 Conference is set to be
bigger than ever before, providing the perfect platform to do business and network with a record breaking number of attendees. The Conference
programme is one of the largest in the world based on 2,278 submitted abstracts from 540 companies across 65 countries.

Ali Khalifa Al Shamsi

Strategy & Coordination Director ADNOC
and Chairman, ADIPEC 2015

ADIPEC 2015 will feature two new conferences: Offshore & Marine Conference and the Women in Industry Conference. The Offshore & Marine
Conference will take centre stage in a purpose built dedicated theatre on the waterfront and will unite global industry experts who will outline key
offshore projects as well as provide vital updates relating to maritime security and safety, shipping and technological advances. The Women in Industry
Conference, held on Sunday 8 November prior to the official opening of ADIPEC, builds on the initiative to reach out to an increased number of women
across the oil and gas sector. This Conference is the ideal platform for industry to gather and discuss the evolving role of women in the energy sector.
Once again, a key feature at ADIPEC this year is the Middle East Petroleum Club (MEPC). MEPC is an exclusive membership club which provides a
secure environment for key decision makers across the oil and gas industry to network. MEPC also features a VIP Programme, which provides
exclusive keynote speakers and panel discussions for all members. These Conferences and popular features, when combined with the exhibition,
establish ADIPEC as the largest oil and gas event in the Middle East, African and Asian Sub-continent. This year ADIPEC is expected to attract 2,000
exhibiting companies, 23 international pavilions, 15 NOCs, 15 IOCs and 85,000 attendees across the 4 days of the show, creating an ideal platform for
petroleum professionals worldwide to drive and support innovation within the industry.
We look forward to seeing you at ADIPEC 2015.

PROGRAMME ACCURATE AS OF 10 AUGUST 2015

PANEL SESSION 1. GLOBAL ENERGY MIX: PATHWAY TO AFFORDABLE ENERGY

14:00 TUESDAY, 10 NOVEMBER 2015 - HALL A

It is now widely recognised that the world has sufficient oil and gas resources to satisfy future demand. However, recent speculation that the era of $100/barrel oil is over has underlined uncertainties in this supply/demand
pattern that increase risks for the investor in an industry with long lead times and long pay-back periods. Moreover, the recent fluctuation in the oil price has increased near-term uncertainty for unconventionals, which could
cause producers to cut back on both supply and investment, leading to long-term consequences for the market. In addition, advances in technology, climate change considerations, and greater regulation of the energy mix
are also on the horizon. These trends have already impacted the oil and gas sector, and could lead to its fundamental transformation.
This panel will debate key issues affecting today's fast-changing global energy industry, examining the challenges and opportunities presented by the short-term fluctuation in the oil price and the role that public policy,
unconventionals, energy efficiency, and new advances in technology will play in the new energy mix. In addition, the panel will examine the desirable energy mix and transition pathways which will provide the world with
affordable, secure, and increasingly lower-carbon energy.

PANEL SESSION 2. OPERATIONS: THE NEW ERA OF OPERATIONS EFFICIENCY

Melanie Kenderdine

Policy and Systems Analysis

US Dept of Energy

09:00 WEDNESDAY, 11 NOVEMBER 2015 - HALL A

The rapidly falling oil prices that affected the oil and gas world in the latter half of 2014 and early 2015 have forced the industry to reconsider many of its certainties, as it had benefitted from stable and high prices in recent
years. Recent structural changes in the industry like a disproportionate increase in capital expenditure compared with operating cash flows, trends such as the US LTO revolution and other geopolitical factors compounding
uncertainty in supply and demand, all point to an outlook of increased volatility. However, every challenge provides an opportunity, and here the industry needs to consider significant reshaping to how it works to give an
ever-greater focus on efficiency.
This panel session will examine how successful oil and gas organisations are seeking to enhance efficiency and assure the viability of their business models by taking actions on three operational fronts: 1. A stringent focus
on reducing cash costs; 2. Bolstering capital delivery; 3. Leveraging data and technology to enhance efficiency and agility.
However, despite significant efforts, companies aiming to capture the above-mentioned efficiencies often fall short of their ambitions to have a sustainable, lasting impact. Operational transformations need to tackle not only
technical aspects but also management infrastructure (KPIs, targets and monitoring dashboards to ensure they can measure the aspired change) as well as mindsets and capabilities to address the underlying
organisational culture. In conclusion, in these turbulent times the winners will be those who are able to shed their old ways of working to transform into truly agile, efficient and data-driven corporations while using technology
to smartly tackle their biggest challenges.

PANEL SESSION 3. PEOPLE: CSR AND THE FUTURE ENERGY INDUSTRY WORKFORCE

11:00 WEDNESDAY, 11 NOVEMBER 2015 - HALL A

The global energy industry is experiencing changes that radically redefine its future form and focus. It is under pressure to deliver increasingly diverse, environmentally sustainable and socio-politically acceptable energy
solutions. In addition to the technological development that we have been witnessing in the last few decades, awareness of environmental and social impact has also grown considerably. And these have to do with People.
This panel session focuses on two key aspects that are critical to the success of the industry: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Human Capital.
Some decades ago, Corporate Social Responsibility was seen more as the voluntary initiative of the corporation to help and promote the welfare of its external stakeholders. This is no longer the case. Michael Hopkins,
an expert on the matter, considers that CSR is concerned with treating the stakeholders of the firm ethically and in a responsible manner, creating higher standards of living for people within and outside the corporation,
whilst preserving its profitability. Nowadays, CSR is mandatory and as a result, In-Country Value has become a standard component of every operational agreement. In fact, these concepts are now evolving to a more
comprehensive and stringent: Social License to Operate.
Human Capital has always been seen as the most important asset of the firm. However, along with the technological development of the energy industry, the coming decades will demand flexible, innovative, agile leaders
and staff from diverse professional backgrounds who can predict and proactively respond, in unconventional ways, to emerging industry trends. The ability to add local in-country value combined with the need to achieve
sustainable market success will require both IOCs and NOCs to attract, retain, re-skill and deploy key professional staff, ensuring the right roles and skills mix, at the right time, and in the right quantity, to meet industry
challenges.
This will drive the creation of new forms of equal opportunity social contracts, development programmes and employment packages to equip and motivate a mobile, highly flexible, multi-skilled professional workforce
who can confidently meet future performance requirements. These multirole/multi-discipline engineers and professionals will become a scarce, highly contended, global resource, and pose greater retention challenges for
employers. Creating the Future Energy Industry Workforce will demand much greater integration with Academia to continuously review, update and adapt the curricula to the industry needs and create the required
secondary/tertiary programmes.

PANEL SESSION 4. HSE: NO COMPROMISES ON HSE & ASSET INTEGRITY, EVEN IN TOUGH TIMES

14:00 WEDNESDAY, 11 NOVEMBER 2015 - HALL A

It is expected that there will be pressure to optimise costs due to the impact of falling oil prices. Companies will seek to adapt to changing circumstances by reducing expenditures on non-core assets and programmes. Decision
makers should carefully consider the long-term impact of their actions during these challenging times.
Accidents in the oil and gas industry can have severe negative impact on a companys reputation and its operational and financial performance. Whenever people are injured, assets damaged, the environment polluted and
business interrupted, money is unavoidably lost. Some incidents take years to recover from. Therefore direct and indirect costs need to be taken into consideration when making decisions on cost optimisation.
The current business environment presents a challenge to the industry but also presents an opportunity for companies to look deep within and streamline their processes and systems to maintain and enhance Health, Safety
and Environment (HSE) in innovative ways without significantly impacting the bottom line. Now is the time to show our commitment to HSE and asset integrity. Where there is a will there is a way.
The theme of ADIPEC 2015 is Innovation and Sustainability in a New Energy World aimed at sharing best practices amongst organisations in a dynamic and challenging business environment. This HSE panel welcomes
speakers to highlight their achievements in addressing the challenges mentioned above without compromising on HSE, and also to share their proven initiatives that have improved HSE commitment and performance.

To address new energy challenges, including the volatility in the oil price, the oil and gas industry is seeking to ramp up its innovative capacity through strategic R&D partnerships. The objective of this panel is to provide
examples through case studies on how cultivating local, regional and international industry alliances, and connecting key people and organisations drive the growth of the innovation ecosystemparticularly locally.
With the increasing market demand for new technologies and knowledge, large companies who used to perform all R&D innovations on their own can no longer isolate themselves from the world. They are adapting and
becoming more successful, like small innovative companies, by searching the right mix of closed versus open innovation paradigms.
The objective of this panel is to foster discussion among distinguished R&D/Technology leaders across the oil and gas industry and to have them share with us their ideas and experience on topics such as:
Finding the right balance between (1) controlling ideas, intellectual property and rewards (closed innovation-type) and (2) sharing risk, costs, diversied and complementary skills (open innovation-type)
Pros and cons of remote R&D centres working together versus a centralised centre
Value of knowledge sharing between industry participants
Case studies of successful joint R&D projects

PANEL SESSION 6. TECHNOLOGY:

USING TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION TO ADDRESS INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

14:00 THURSDAY, 12 NOVEMBER 2015 - HALL A

Exploiting hydrocarbons from the deep reaches of the earth is no easy task. The level of technology and innovation required rivals that of any other high technology industry. It is well known in the industry today that most of
the easy oil has been discovered and the task to produce and recover more hydrocarbons is becoming more difficult.
The search for oil and gas has three objectives: to identify and evaluate hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs; to bring hydrocarbons to the surface safely and cost-effectively, without harming the environment; and to maximise the
recovery from each discovery. These objectives can be advanced only by ongoing research into the full cycle of the exploration, drilling, completion, and production processes in combination with an environmentally green
solution plan.
The sources of technology destined for the oil and gas markets have changed over time. The era where oil and gas companies used to buy versus build new technologies has changed significantly throughout the last decades.
Research is often conducted in partnership involving all stakeholders, i.e.: Operators, Service Companies and Academia, and it has become a global effort with varying partnership models around the world. This ensures close
contact with leading-edge research in all relevant disciplines, improves understanding of regional challenges, and facilitates validation of research ideas with in-field experiments at an early stage in the product development
cycle.
Even with the current environment of low oil prices, the projected global energy demand will increase when the global economy picks up speed again, and so it remains imperative to address the challenges facing our industry.
Technology and innovation are key elements for the sustainability of low cost per barrel developments of new oil and gas, conventional or unconventional reserves. All stakeholders will be in a stronger position when these
challenges are tackled in broad cooperation at global, regional and local levels, to keep the source of sustainable cost effective hydrocarbon production on stream and to fuel the engines of the world in the years ahead.
