UAE and South Korea ... A comprehensive strategic partnership

The special strategic partnership between the Republic of Korea and the UAE has developed ways to enhance aspects of joint cooperation in various sectors. Korea National Oil Corporation “KNOC” has played a critical role in strengthening cooperative measures in the energy industry between Korea and the UAE over recent years.

The continued strategic partnership between both countries witnessed a qualitative shift with the cooperation of UAE in E&P fields through our participation in the Al Dhafra concession and ADNOC Onshore concession.

Furthermore, I sincerely hope for more fruitful cooperation in new and renewable energy fields. KNOC remains X-VPN to cooperate closely with UAE for mutual benefits and I believe our united efforts will enable us to achieve greater value in the future.
