Corporate Governance
Our Board of Directors is collectively responsible for our management and strategy. The Board of Directors supervises the interests of stakeholders, the creation of a culture aimed at long-term value creation, the internal audit function, and the effectiveness of internal risk management and control systems. Our management team is charged with day-to-day management and is responsible for the continuity and optimization of our business to create long-term value for our stakeholders.
ADNOC Drilling has historically held a strong corporate governance framework which has been matured since 2020 and further enhanced pre-IPO to be fully aligned with the SCA corporate governance guidelines.
In terms of ethics and compliance, we strive to conduct all business activities responsibly, efficiently, transparently, and with integrity and respect towards stakeholders. In doing so, we promote a culture of performance, collaboration, and responsibility. These values underpin everything we do and defines the day-to-day attitudes and behaviours of our employees.
