Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) has once again secured its position as the UAE’s most valuable brand for an unprecedented seventh year in a row, according to the latest report from Brand Finance, an independent brand valuation consultancy.
The oil giant’s brand value surged by 25 per cent year-on-year, reaching an impressive US$18.9 billion in 2025.
This remarkable growth represents a more than 300 per cent increase since 2017, solidifying ADNOC’s position as the second most valuable brand in the Middle East.
In the global arena, ADNOC has made significant strides, climbing two places to become the sixth most valuable oil and gas brand worldwide, surpassing international supermajors TotalEnergies and BP.
The company’s overall global brand ranking improved by 23 positions, moving from 128th in 2024 to 105th in 2025.
ADNOC’s success extends beyond mere financial metrics.
The company was recognised as the strongest brand overall in the UAE and maintained its fifth place among the strongest global oil and gas brands.
This achievement is attributed to ADNOC’s performance in decarbonisation, artificial intelligence (AI) innovations, and diversified international growth.
His Excellency Dr Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, ADNOC Managing Director and Group CEO, commented on the achievement: “Being recognised as the UAE’s most valuable brand for the seventh consecutive year reflects the vision and guidance of our nation’s wise leadership, who continue to inspire our mission to drive progress and prosperity.”
David Haigh, Chairman and CEO of Brand Finance, praised ADNOC’s progress under Dr. Al Jaber’s leadership, highlighting the company’s impressive Brand Strength Index (BSI) score of 87.9 out of 100.
Haigh also noted that Dr Al Jaber’s exceptional stewardship has earned him the top spot among global energy CEOs and seventh place overall in the Brand Guardianship Index, making him the highest-ranked CEO outside the US and Europe.
As ADNOC continues to expand its global presence, the company remains committed to delivering sustainable growth and creating opportunities that benefit the UAE and its people for generations to come.
