Introduction from ADNOC’s Executive Leadership Team Delivering responsibly ADNOC delivers the energy the world needs, reliably, affordably and responsibly. Geopolitical events have reinforced the importance of energy security, stable supply and the role of institutions trusted to deliver through uncertainty. That is the standard we are measured by, and the standard we hold ourselves to. Resilience proves its worth precisely when it is needed. It is built over years, through long-term investment, disciplined operations, partnerships that hold under stress, and a workforce trained to perform when the stakes are high. That is the foundation we have built at ADNOC and that foundation carries a responsibility we take seriously. The world is using more of every form of energy, not less. Most of all, the world needs energy that is reliable, affordable and lower-carbon and we are determined to deliver all three. Meeting rising energy demand means putting all energy options on the table, including oil and gas, renewables, nuclear, carbon capture and the technologies still to come. Oil and gas remain essential to the global economy and producing them responsibly is part of how we support the transformation of energy systems. Our upstream carbon intensity of 7.0 kg CO₂e per barrel of oil equivalent is among the lowest in the industry. Masdar, the Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company in which ADNOC is a shareholder, now has 65 GW of renewable capacity in operation or development and is on the path to 100 GW by 2030. Through XRG, our international growth platform, we are channeling capital into the gas, chemicals and energy solutions the world needs. Sustainability is engineered into how we operate – integrity, governance and a culture of care underpin everything we do. The safety and wellbeing of our people remain our highest priority. Despite strengthening our systems and leadership accountability, we are deeply saddened to report two fatalities in 2025. Any loss of life is unacceptable, and each incident reinforces our responsibility to learn and improve. That responsibility is also shaping how we deploy advanced technology across our business. AI is transforming how we improve safety, run our facilities, manage our assets and increase efficiency. As we advance our ambition to become the world’s most AI- and tech-enabled energy company, we are deploying AI and robotics at scale, from the control room to the boardroom, to strengthen decision-making, enhance operational performance and keep our people safe. Our contribution is measured beyond barrels and megawatts. ADNOC’s In-Country Value program serves as a catalyst for the UAE’s growth and diversification by creating new economic and industrial opportunities for the private sector, while strengthening industrial sovereignty and long- term resilience. Since its inception, the ICV program has contributed $83.5 billion (AED 307 billion) to the UAE economy. Alongside our investment in people, communities and education, this is how energy translates into national strength. Energy will define the coming decade. Enabled by reliable and long-term partnerships, ADNOC intends to define what responsible delivery looks like, combining the security the world needs with the discipline the future demands. The world is changing fast. So are we. And we will continue to deliver for our customers, our shareholders, our partners, our communities and the UAE. Introduction from ADNOC’s Chief Sustainability & ESG Officer Strengthening resilience and delivering long-term value Responsible energy leadership is measured not by ambition alone, but by an ability to deliver progress while meeting the evolving energy needs of people, economies and industries everywhere. For ADNOC, this means embedding sustainability into how we plan, invest, operate and make decisions. It is how we manage performance, build resilience and uphold our responsibilities to our employees, our customers, our partners, our communities and the UAE. Our approach is grounded in practical action. We focus on solutions that are technically proven, commercially viable and capable of strengthening both our business and the wider energy system. ADNOC’s 2030 Sustainability Strategy gives this approach a clear framework with measurable targets across decarbonization, nature, people and safety. In 2025, we maintained our upstream greenhouse gas intensity of 7.0 kg CO₂e per barrel of oil equivalent, among the lowest in the world. We reduced Scope 1 emissions by 0.9 million tonnes, bringing cumulative reductions to 5 million tonnes since 2019, and avoided a further 5.1 million tonnes through the import of clean power. Since 2022, emission-reduction initiatives have delivered $242 million (AED 888 million) in realized savings. We also achieved our 2025 methane target, reaching an upstream methane intensity of 0.05 percent. And through Masdar, renewable capacity reached 65 GW. Each of these milestones makes progress toward our Net Zero by 2045 ambition. The same focus on measurable progress guides how we protect nature and manage resources responsibly. Last year, we maintained zero freshwater withdrawal across our operations, diverted more than 17,000 tonnes of waste from landfill and reached the milestone of 5 million mangroves planted, which is halfway toward our 10 million by 2030 goal. But responsible delivery must also create opportunity. In 2025, ADNOC returned $17.7 billion (AED 65 billion) to the UAE economy and signed $2.4 billion (AED 8.8 billion) in awards to support local manufacturing. We helped create 4,500 private-sector jobs for UAE Nationals. Women represented 24.9 percent of new national hires and 26.4 percent of senior leadership. Every ADNOC Group company board now includes women. Our people contributed 76,500 volunteering hours, while our community programs benefited more than 1.6 million people, and our STEM outreach engaged 86,200 students. AI and advanced technologies were key enablers of this progress. We trained 18,000 employees in agentic AI, strengthening our ability to use data to inform faster, smarter decision making. The pages that follow are more than a record of annual performance. They show how our strategy is designed to deliver value for the UAE, build operational resilience and position ADNOC to responsibly meet the energy needs of today. I am grateful to our teams and partners for the progress achieved in 2025, and confident in our ability to keep delivering responsible, at scale and with purpose.
