Bahrain’s Oil Minister Shaikh Mohammed bin Khalifa Al-Khalifa is leading the Bahraini delegation at the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (Adipec) this week.

 

Adipec is the premier global meeting point for the oil and gas industry, bringing together the most senior decision makers from government, national oil companies, and international oil companies, to discuss the most pressing issues facing their business.

 

Shaikh Mohammed took part in a series of ministerial panel discussions during the four-day event. He is also expected to hold private talks with international counterparts and with global business partners, a statement said.

 

Adipec is long-established as an essential gathering for the oil and gas industry’s most influential decision makers, many of whom share their knowledge in the strategic and VIP conference programmes.
