Research & Development Petroleum Conference & Exhibition (RDPETRO 2018)

RDPETRO, the Research & Development Petroleum Conference and Exhibition fosters closer collaboration across the oil and gas industry. The event will bring together industry experts and technology innovators, start-ups and academia, enabling end-users to source and invest in innovative solutions and new technologies that unlock and optimize oil and gas resources, and create value.

RDPETRO is the world’s largest gathering focused on research and technology development for the oil and gas sector where the most innovative projects and ideas will be awarded with multi-million dollar development funding to help solve key industry challenges.

RDPETRO has been held since 2012 as ADRAC (Abu Dhabi Research and Development Conference and Exhibition) and was considered in 2015 the biggest Oil and Gas R&D conference and exhibition in the world, fully dedicated to Research and Development.

In 2018 ADRAC became RDPETRO (Research & Development Petroleum Conference and Exhibition), a global hub of the brightest thinkers and innovators in the petroleum industry’s technologies of the future. Globally, we face head-on all oil and gas challenges, finding and implementing the best solutions across the industry.
