Explaining the decision to move Gastech 2021, Christopher Hudson, President, dmg events, said:

• Singapore and its stakeholders have provided us with great support and commitment
• However, the uncertainty created by the rising rate of infection across the region have made it challenging for our industry to plan its participation in Singapore, and we had to look for an alternative location
• When the time is right, we look forward to returning to Singapore
• Thanks to its robust, world-leading vaccination programme and well organised testing and travel measures, Dubai is one of the safest and most accessible places in the world to travel to
• Gastech 2021 will provide the leadership that will enable the gas, LNG, hydrogen, and energy industry to thrive in post COVID-19 energy markets

Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei, UAE Minister of Energy and Infrastructure noted:

• The UAE is delighted to be hosting Gastech
• Gastech comes at an important time for the energy industry with a shared global mandate to lower carbon emissions and provide clean affordable energy for all
• Gastech is a key enabler of conversations and connections that drive the energy transition agenda

Gastech 2021 will be held at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
It will be attended by more than 25 000 attendees, including senior decision-makers and energy industry thought leaders, and over 400 exhibiting companies, who will set the agenda for the global gas, LNG, hydrogen and energy industry for decades to come.
