The state-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company said on Monday it would allocate $23 billion for decarbonisation and lower-carbon projects, up from a previous $15 billion target.<\/p>\n
ADNOC made the announcement at its annual board meeting which was chaired by United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.<\/p>\n
“The increased allocation will include investments to grow the company’s domestic and international carbon management platforms,” ADNOC said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Sheikh Mohammed “directed ADNOC to grow its diversified portfolio and provide secure, reliable and responsible energy to support the delivery of a just, orderly and equitable global energy transition,” the statement said.<\/p>\n
ADNOC has said it aims to reduce its carbon intensity by 25% by 2030 and to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2045.<\/p>\n
In late 2022, ADNOC at its board meeting approved a five-year business plan and capital expenditure of 550 billion dirhams ($150 billion) for 2023-2027. It also brought forward its target of five million barrels per day oil production capacity expansion to 2027 from 2030.<\/p>\n
ADNOC on Monday said its “In-Country Value” programme had driven $11.2 billion into the UAE’s economy in 2023, and the board endorsed a goal for the programme to generate $48.5 billion over the next five years. ADNOC created 6,500 jobs for Emirati citizens in the private sector in 2023 through the programme, it said.<\/p>\n
The programme has brought $51 billion in value to the UAE economy since 2018 and created 11,500 jobs for Emiratis in the private sector, ADNOC said.<\/p>\n
ADNOC said since 2022 it has signed local manufacturing deals worth $16.9 billion with local and international companies. ADNOC has a target to locally manufacture $19 billion worth of products it plans to procure by 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
