ExxonMobil Fuels EGYPES 2025 with Multiple Interventions

Cairo – ExxonMobil reaffirms its commitment to Egypt's energy future as a prominent participant at EGYPES 2025, held February 17-19 at the Egypt International Exhibition Center. Marking their eighth consecutive year as a diamond sponsor and headline sponsor of the Young Professionals Program, ExxonMobil engaged in vital discussions surrounding the event's theme, "Building a Secure and Sustainable Energy Future." The company showcased cutting-edge technologies and advancements across the energy value chain, from exploration and production to refining and processing. At the forefront of this year's edition, ExxonMobil underscored its dedication to developing the next generation of energy leaders by providing valuable insights and mentorship to young professionals, equipping them with the knowledge and experience necessary to navigate the dynamic energy landscape. This participation reflects ExxonMobil's ongoing investment in expertise-sharing and industry growth within Egypt. In line with this commitment to developing future talent, ExxonMobil's participation featured key contributions from leaders and experts, particularly in research and exploration, notably John Ardill, Vice President of ExxonMobil Global Exploration. In the session "Gas – Powering Energy-Hungry Nations and Industries," Mr. Ardill highlighted ExxonMobil's vision for the future of energy, both in Egypt and globally, focusing on the pivotal role of natural gas as a reliable energy source in bridging the gap to a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. ExxonMobil's active engagement at EGYPES 2025 reinforces its commitment to supporting Egypt's energy sector and driving sustainable growth. Beyond its pavilion, the company continued to support the development of emerging professionals, with ten experts from Egypt, the UK, and the US actively participating in the Young Professionals sessions. The company also facilitated field visits to its 10th of Ramadan and Mex plants in Alexandria, offering hands-on experience in manufacturing, quality, and industrial safety to 80 engineering students from Cairo University, Alexandria University, Al-Galala University, and the American University in Cairo, fostering valuable interaction between industry experts and the next generation of engineers and exposing them to the latest technologies in the field. On this occasion, Amr Abou Eita, ExxonMobil Egypt's Chairman and Managing Director, stated, "We are proud to mark our eighth consecutive year at EGYPES, the region's premier energy event. As a diamond sponsor and headline sponsor of the Young Professionals program, ExxonMobil underscores its commitment to innovation, excellence, and empowerment—values that resonate deeply with EGYPES' mission to serve as a leading platform for collaboration and the advancement of the energy sector." Abou Eita further stated, "We continually strive to create meaningful and impactful opportunities for young professionals, maximizing their development and contributing to the industry's future. This year, we offered a diverse range of activities showcasing ExxonMobil's technological leadership and the latest advancements in our Egyptian operations. Furthermore, we were pleased to partner with experts from the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC) in our geological science workshop, ensuring a rich learning experience for all participants." Furthermore, During EGYPES 2025, ExxonMobil, in collaboration with the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS), hosted a specialized technical workshop for geoscience students. The workshop featured distinguished speakers, including senior geophysicists from EGAS and the head of ExxonMobil's geological sciences technical team, who shared their expertise. The workshop aimed to expand students' understanding of the field and showcase ExxonMobil's leading expertise in technology and sustainable operations. In addition, young energy professionals delivered short lectures, providing students with valuable insights into career paths within the industry. It is worth mentioning that in 2024, ExxonMobil Upstream Ltd. successfully completed the drilling of the Nefertari-1 well in the North Marakia concession area, utilizing the Valaris DS-9 drilling vessel. This drilling endeavor resulted in the discovery of gas reserves, which ExxonMobil is currently evaluating. QatarEnergy is a partner in the North Marakia concession, which is operated by ExxonMobil.
