ADNOC Distribution Celebrates World Water Day 2015

Company’s Stand at Delma Mall Raises Awareness on Global UN Theme ‘Water and Sustainable Development’

ADNOC Distribution today hosted a special stand at Delma Mall in Abu Dhabi as part of an awareness initiative to mark World Water Day 2015. Annually commemorated by the United Nations on March 22, the global event was themed ‘Water and Sustainable Development’ in its 2015 edition. In addition to engaging visitors to the mall with interactive messaging sessions, the awareness drive distributed leaflets on the importance of conserving water in view of the approaching summer months. The awareness drive drew the participation of Abdulla Salem Al Dhaheri, CEO of ADNOC Distribution, and senior company officials. Commenting on the occasion, Al Dhaheri said: “Conserving water resources is the collective responsibility of every one of us, and is not limited to the government or private sectors. In line with this priority, ADNOC Distribution is keen to collaborate with different stakeholders in the UAE to maintain our valuable water resources and conform to the sustainable development directives of our wise leadership in the UAE. “The awareness drive to mark World Water Day 2015 reiterates ADNOC Distribution’s mandate to actively partner in the UAE’s ongoing efforts to optimize the efficient and sustainable consumption of water resources. We articulate this commitment across our facilities, as well as in the delivery of our products and services.” ADNOC Distribution regularly rolls out projects and initiatives to drive awareness on the prudent utilisation of natural resources. Leading by example, the company’s ‘green service stations’ implement best-in-class environment-friendly operations to maximise efficiency in water use and recycling.
