Dubai: The Middle East's biggest oil and gas event - ADIPEC - will be held from November 15 to November 18 as a live, in-person format, according to the energy major ADNOC, which hosts the event every year.
The UAE's events and exhibitions space had been severely disrupted following the pandemic and travel restrictions imposed. The confirmed dates for an in-person Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference will thus be a shot in the arm.
