ADNOC and e& have jointly announced an ambitious initiative to construct the largest private 5G wireless network in the energy industry, covering an extensive 11,000 square kilometers. This groundbreaking project aims to revolutionize ADNOC's operations both onshore and offshore by providing robust high-bandwidth connectivity.

The implementation of this advanced 5G network is poised to significantly enhance ADNOC's capabilities in integrating cutting-edge artificial intelligence solutions across its remote facilities. This integration promises substantial benefits, including cost reduction through automation, improved operational efficiency, minimized emissions, and heightened safety measures for its workforce.

Scheduled for completion by 2025, the project is projected to generate an impressive $1.5 billion (AED 5.5 billion) in value within its initial five years of operation.

Commenting on this transformative venture, His Excellency Dr Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and ADNOC Managing Director and Group CEO, expressed, "This landmark collaboration with e& marks a pivotal milestone in ADNOC's journey to emerge as the world's leading AI-enabled energy company.
