• Day 1 @ ADIPEC

    November 2 in the United Arab Emirates ☀️ 30 °C

    Booked a ride to the ADNEC centre where the 2026 ADIPEC conference was holding. The drove was less than 20mins. I was expecting a long queue at the Conference centre but surprisingly there was none. With my already printed out QR code an attendant printed out my badge and directed me to where I could pick up a larnyard. After passing through an Airport like security with bag scanner amd pat down, I walked into a huge exhibition hall with lots of vendors in the oil & gas industry exhibiting their services, tools and equipment.

    After looking around for a while I met up with my colleagues and we headed off to one of the viewing centres to watch the opening ceremony.

    I then headed off to the AI centre which was my core interest. A few companies presented their products and services.

    At 1pm we headed off for delegates lunch. The meal was quite good and service was quick as they had so many serving points for the buffet.

    After lunch we headed off to where the Supply Chain lectures were holding.

    Ended the day a few minutes before 5pm. Tiok the shuttle bus to the taxi stop and joined the taxi queue, eventually got a taxi to take me back to my apartment hotel.

    Later visited a nearby Lulu express store to buy some food and snacks then ate the jollof rice I bought the day before
