Recruitment in Abu Dhabi centers on ADNOC, one of the world’s largest national oil companies, with production capacity exceeding 4.85 million barrels per day and plans to reach 5 million bpd by 2027. The emirate holds 96% of the UAE’s estimated 100 billion barrels of oil reserves, and ADNOC is executing a $150 billion five-year capital expenditure program that includes the $17 billion Hail and Ghasha offshore sour gas development.

The emirate is also advancing its Energy Strategy 2050 through projects like the Al Dhafra solar plant—the world’s largest single-site solar installation—and the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant, the Arab world’s first nuclear facility, which now provides 25% of the UAE’s electricity needs.
