Location: Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre, UAE
After the resounding success of the international Conference & Exhibition ‘Offshore Arabia
2009’ and the considerable participation on both regional and international levels, I am proud to
announce that we will be hosting ‘Offshore Arabia 2010’ from 29th till 31st March 2010.
‘Offshore Arabia 2010’, will be focusing on current challenges that we face on a worldwide
scale. We shall focus on challenges such as the impact of the economic crisis on the environment,
the oil, gas and shipping industries and other businesses in general. In the times of a global
recession, does environment still have priority?
We will consider the threat of piracy on global energy supplies and its effects on an already
damaged world economy and many other issues.
Energy and environment are essential for sustainable development, therefore we remain focused
and committed to energy, environment, advanced technologies, renewables and sustainable
development. We will continue to encourage growth as a basis for all human betterment.
Incorporating within our mission, the UN Millennium Development goal which calls for the
implementation of sustainable development and its three pillars– economic development, social
development and environmental protection.
Held under the patronage of H.H Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President &
Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, Offshore Arabia 2010, comes at a time when global
cooperation is most needed to facilitate global dialogue in managing energy for sustainable growth.
It has evolved over the years and provides an excellent overview of a cross section of the key
issues in the energy industry and the environment. The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) will
be integrated and highlighted as part of the oil industry’s role in the society. We intend to bring
forth the issues and the concerns with an aim to have highly knowledgeable and skilled
professionals provide a wider range of solutions and share their thoughts.
In the visionary sessions we will have top leading business and industry experts highlight
for us the potentials and share their views in what the future may or should be.
Your participation on a corporate and personal level will truly strengthen our goal and will
ensure a sustainable energy and a cleaner environment for the future generation.
Welcome to a sustainable FUTURE - Offshore Arabia 2010.
