Doha: Over 200 leaders from the energy industry will be attending the Abdullah bin Hamad Al Attiyah International Energy Awards for Lifetime Achievement at the Sheraton Grand Hotel Resort and Convention Centre tonight.
At the invitation only gala dinner, six exceptional individuals will be recognised with Lifetime Achievement Awards in the following categories: the Advancement of Natural Gas; Education for Future Energy Leaders; Renewables, Energy Journalism; Qatar’s Energy Industry; and International Energy Policy and Diplomacy.
The awards celebrate the legacy of H E Al Attiyah, the former Minister of Energy and Industry and Deputy Prime Minister for the State of Qatar, by honouring individuals for lifetime achievements in their fields of work and policy that emulate His Excellency’s 40 years of distinguished contributions to the global energy industry.
Former winners of these prestigious Lifetime Achievement Awards include Sir Mark Moody-Stuart, former Chairman of Shell and Chairman of the UN Global Compact Foundation, Ali Al Naimi, Saudi Arabia’s former Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, and Christophe de Margerie, late CEO of Total.
Since its inception in 2015, the Al Attiyah Foundation has remained unwaveringly committed to providing expert analysis and insights on serious global, regional, and country-specific challenges and opportunities in the areas of energy and sustainable development.
Themes in these areas are explored through the Doha-based Foundation's publications including industry leading research papers, current affairs articles, daily news briefings and regular podcast interviews with important personalities.
