In his role, The UAE Minister of Energy is focused on sustainable development, coordinating and representing petroleum affairs and assuring that resources are utilised appropriately to support the national economy of the UAE. Boasting years of experience in various sectors he is currently Chairman of the Federal Electricity and Water Authority, Chairman of Mubadala Petroleum Co and of the Emirates Liquified Gas Co.

His stature within the industry, the expertise he offers and the knowledge he has gained throughout his career make His Excellency Eng. Suhail Mohamed Faraj Al Mazrouei the ideal keynote speaker to open the prestigious conference programme.

Nick Powell, StocExpo & Tank Storage Portfolio Event Director comments: “To have The UAE Ministry of Energy on board as a government supporter and His Excellency Eng. Suhail Mohamed Faraj Al Mazrouei, the UAE Minister of Energy, opening the show and delivering the hotly anticipated keynote address, is simply fantastic. It strengthens the position of our inaugural show and signals the level of approval that Tank Storage Middle East is already receiving from the industry. The support so far has been more than overwhelming!”
