Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) on Sunday signed two separate Memorandums of Understanding with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and with Masdar, Abu Dhabi's renewable energy company, covering energy and technology collaboration, renewables, and carbon management.

He added: "Collaboration is crucial for success in achieving breakthroughs in our industry and we welcome ADNOC to be part of our network of collaborative relationships with leading energy companies and institutions."
Saudi Aramco also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Masdar, Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company. Under the terms of the agreement, Masdar and Saudi Aramco will collaborate on sustainable development and renewable energy, in order to yield advancements in clean electricity generation, and carbon capture for Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the world.
The MoU was signed by Yasser Mufti, Executive Director for New Business Development at Saudi Aramco and Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Masdar.
