Kuwait will host two strategic landmark conferences this September, advancing the country's vision of becoming a global benchmark for energy innovation and industrial excellence.  
 
The 2nd Digital Transformation Kuwait Oil & Gas Conference will be held on  September 8 and 9, followed by the inaugural Asset Integrity and Process Safety Kuwait Conference, taking place on September 10 and 11, both at the Jumeirah Messilah Hotel, Kuwait.
 
Held under the patronage of Tariq Suleiman Al-Roumi, the Minister of Oil, and Sheikh Dr Nimr Fahad Al Malik Al Sabah, the Undersecretary of Ministry of Oil, the events are hosted by the Ministry of Oil – Kuwait and supported by the Kuwait Oil Company and Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Company.
 
These official platforms will individually bring together over 500 senior decision-makers, 40+ expert speakers, and 50+ global and regional solution providers. Together, the conferences serve as a cornerstone for advancing Kuwait’s energy future, through digital innovation and world-class integrity and process safety standards.
 
"At the Ministry of Oil, we recognise that advancing digital transformation, asset integrity, and process safety is not only vital to the resilience of Kuwait’s energy infrastructure but also to the realisation of our long-term national development goals. These priorities underpin our efforts to build a future-ready oil and gas sector—one that is safe, efficient, and globally competitive," said a statement from the Ministry of Oil – Kuwait.
 
"As part of this mission, the Ministry of Oil proudly hosts the 2nd Digital Transformation Kuwait Oil & Gas Conference and the Asset Integrity & Process Safety in Oil & Gas Conference – Kuwait. These conferences serve as national platforms for collaboration, thought leadership, and knowledge-sharing—bringing together global and regional experts, industry leaders, and government entities to chart a collective path toward smarter, safer, and more sustainable energy systems,” it said.
 
Advancing Kuwait’s Strategic Energy Vision
The Digital Transformation Kuwait Oil & Gas Conference builds on the success of its inaugural edition and will address Kuwait’s national agenda for energy digitalisation. Key themes include the deployment of artificial intelligence, automation, digital twin technology, predictive analytics, and cyber resilience across upstream, midstream, and downstream operations.
 
In parallel, the launch of the Asset Integrity and Process Safety Kuwait Conference marks a significant milestone in the country’s industrial strategy—providing a dedicated platform for addressing integrity management, process safety practices, and operational reliability across critical energy infrastructure.
