ADNOC, XRG

The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) has launched XRG, a major international investment entity. With an enterprise value exceeding $80 billion, XRG is set to tap into three global trends: the energy sector transformation, AI-driven growth, and emerging markets. The company aims to double its asset value within a decade by focusing on low-carbon energy and chemicals. This aligns with global sustainability goals.

 

Three Strategic Platforms for Sustainable Growth

1. Global Chemicals Platform:
XRG plans to become a key player in the global chemicals industry. The goal is to meet the expected 70% increase in chemical demand by 2050. This platform will focus on delivering essential chemicals and specialty products to a range of industries, including consumer goods and manufacturing. Additionally, these products are crucial for advancing industrial processes and, consequently, meeting the growing global demand.

2. International Gas Platform:
Another focus for XRG is creating a world-scale gas portfolio. It will emphasize natural gas as a lower-carbon transition fuel. The company plans to meet the rising demand for natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG), which is expected to grow by 15% and 65%, respectively, in the next decade.

3. Low Carbon Energies Platform:
XRG will invest in low-carbon technologies, such as ammonia, a product projected to grow significantly by 2040. This platform will help drive the global transition to sustainable energy. It will also play a vital role in reducing carbon emissions.

 

ADNOC’s Vision for Sustainable Energy Leadership

Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, ADNOC’s Managing Director and Group CEO, believes XRG marks a crucial step in ADNOC’s long-term strategy. He highlighted that XRG’s global partnerships and innovations will drive sustainable energy solutions. These efforts reinforce the UAE’s position as a leader in energy and chemicals.

 

XRG’s Launch and Future Plans

XRG will officially begin operations in Q1 2025. The first milestone will be a global strategy day to kickstart the company’s journey in the low-carbon energy and chemicals sectors. This move will reshape the future of sustainable energy.
