Engaging with communities in which we live and work

We are committed to continuously investing in and creating opportunities for UAE Nationals, fostering a long-term positive impact in the communities where we operate, and increasing our In-Country Value (ICV) contribution year-on-year.

Procurement Practices

At ADNOC Drilling, we cultivate a culture of ethical excellence that begins with our internal teams and extends to every contractor, supplier, and partner. From the outset of any engagement, suppliers are contractually mandated to align with the ADNOC Group Supplier and Partner Code of Ethics. This establishes a clear expectation of compliance with rigorous standards for ethical behavior, environmental stewardship, and adherence to relevant laws and regulations. We emphasize environmentally responsible practices, ensuring that every partnership reflects our commitment to sustainability.

In-Country Value (ICV)

Our ICV program is a cornerstone of our vision to transform the nation’s oil and gas resources into engines of progress. By fueling economic diversification, nurturing Emirati talent, and embedding strategic capabilities locally, the program significantly contributes to the UAE’s growth, driving innovation and prosperity while enriching the nation’s GDP.

Our suppliers are advised to undertake the ICV certification process to secure the ICV certificate. The program, designed to ensure a standardized certification methodology to support the UAE’s economic growth and efficiency, has been adopted by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technologies (MoIAT).

In 2024, we achieved an ICV Certificate Score of90.74% compared to last year's score of 90.63%. 

Community Engagement

At ADNOC Drilling, our commitment to the socio-economic development of the UAE is at the heart of our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs. These programs are strategically aligned with ADNOC’s broader approach, demonstrating our unwavering dedication to fostering positive community impact through meaningful initiatives.
