Asian energy corporations and government delegations have established a record presence in Abu Dhabi for the opening of ADIPEC 2026. According to event organizers, the gathering includes 353 Asian companies and six national pavilions, featuring substantial participation from China, Japan, and India focused on Gulf energy supplies and strategic partnerships.

Hosted by ADNOC at the ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi, the exhibition sold out with 2,260 exhibiting companies and over 181,000 pre-registered attendees.
