ADNOC was an early adopter of a zero routine flaring policy and is a signatory to the World Bank’s Zero Routine Flaring by 2030 initiative. We invested early in gas infrastructure and have continued to deploy technologies and operational solutions targeting flaring reduction. According to the World Bank Global Gas Flaring Tracker, the UAE has one of the lowest flare volumes and flaring intensities among oil and gas producing nations. By 2025, ADNOC deployed a total of 50 flare gas recovery systems across its asset base, enabling the avoidance of approximately 36 billion cubic feet (bcf) of routine flaring across ADNOC’s operations. Routine flaring performance in 2025 was maintained at 2024 levels. Total flaring increased compared to 2024, driven by non-routine flaring events and higher production throughput. Corrective actions have been implemented to address the operational factors contributing to the non- routine flaring and to support improved operational reliability across the affected assets. Recognizing the role of flaring as a necessary safety process in oil and gas operations, ADNOC’s flare reduction program focuses on solutions that maintain asset safety and integrity while progressively reducing flaring volumes. Key measures include: • Operational optimization through the installation of vapor recovery units and flare gas recovery systems • Engineering solutions to reduce flaring during maintenance, start-up and shut-down events • Deployment of real-time flare monitoring digital solutions designed to optimize response times, detect inefficiencies and continually track flaring performance Flaring Q: Why is reducing flaring a priority today? There are two sides to it. The first is emissions. Flaring mainly produces CO₂ and where combustion is incomplete it also releases methane. Reducing flaring lowers both and is an important part of managing our overall footprint. The second is value. The gas being flared is a usable product, so capturing it means putting it to productive use rather than losing it. Every unit we capture rather than flare is emissions avoided and value retained, which is why addressing flaring makes both environmental and commercial sense. Q: How does flaring reduction link to operational excellence and energy optimization? The more reliably we operate, and the more we recover and reinject or route gas back into the system, the less we need to flare. So a falling flaring rate is a direct reflection of how integrated our operations are. Q: What is ADNOC doing to reduce flaring and methane emissions? We are taking a practical, measurement-led approach by investing in equipment to capture and reuse gas, strengthening how we measure and monitor emissions, and applying digital tools to detect and act on issues faster. The emphasis is on progressive, verifiable improvement and embedding flaring reduction in how we operate day to day.

ADNOC also deployed a gas compression solution at Umm Al Dalkh, enabling early avoidance of up to more than 1,240 mmscf of routine flaring and supporting future integrated gas utilization.
