Mubadala Petroleum rebrands as Mubadala Energy

Mubadala Petroleum has rebranded as Mubadala Energy. In line with the strategy driving the new branding, Mubadala Energy will expand its gas-weighted portfolio in areas such as LNG while exploring new energy sectors including blue hydrogen and carbon capture.

The strategy also sees a strategic focus on decarbonising the business while driving innovation and technology across all operations.

Musabbeh Al Kaabi, CEO of UAE Investments at Mubadala Investment Company and chairman of Mubadala Energy, said: “Mubadala Energy has earned its place as a major player on the international energy stage. This new brand identity accurately reflects the business in its next phase of growth aligned with the energy transition through a gas-weighted portfolio and an increased focus on more sustainable energy sectors.”

Focus on energy transition

Mansoor Mohamed Al Hamed, CEO, Mubadala Energy, commented: “We are tremendously proud of what we have achieved since we were founded ten years ago. But today is the right time to signal our focus on energy transition through a bold new brand.

“We are building on a track record which has seen significant growth through an expanding gas portfolio, and with our deep capabilities and strong partnerships around the world we are well positioned to embark on a new chapter in our story as Mubadala Energy.”

Making the change in its tenth year of operations, the company has continued to grow and now spans eleven markets, employing over 500 people.

This year, Mubadala Energy also reached the significant production milestone of 500,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day (boed) for the first time in its history, marking a 22 per cent increase in production from 2021.
