Powering the Future of Energy: Rockwell Automation’s Vision at ADIPEC 2025



Shaping the Energy Landscape in DUBAI, UAE

In the vibrant hub of **Dubai, UAE**, innovation is more than a buzzword—it’s a necessity. That’s why Rockwell Automation, Inc, the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, is gearing up to make waves at **ADIPEC 2025**. From November 3–6 in Abu Dhabi, this global leader will unveil how **integrated process and power solutions, secure digital architectures, and intelligent remote operations** can help energy producers accelerate performance, refine cyber resilience, and advance sustainable business models—from wellhead to export terminal.  

Energy decision-makers are no longer satisfied with experimental pilots. As **Ediz Eren**, regional vice president for the Middle East, Türkiye & Africa, puts it:  
> "Energy leaders are asking for measurable and scalable outcomes, not isolated pilots… Our approach connects plant-wide control, electrical power, safety, and analytics in a single, open architecture so operators can see, decide, and act faster."  

This forward-thinking strategy is designed to **improve data availability, optimize energy intensity, and strengthen security**—a critical trio that aligns perfectly with the rapidly evolving landscape of global energy operations.  

Three Pillars of Impact at ADIPEC 2025

Operational Excellence


Imagine energy production with **zero bottlenecks**, where downtime is reduced, cycle times are compressed, and energy use is continually optimized. This is the promise of unified control of process and power, coupled with real-time diagnostics and KPI-driven decision support. Rockwell Automation will showcase exactly how this synergy can transform production floors into streamlined, data-rich ecosystems.

Cybersecure Operations

In today’s high-risk operational technology (OT) environments, cybersecurity is no longer optional—it’s mission-critical . At ADIPEC, Rockwell Automation will highlight **zero-trust-aligned architectures, asset visibility, and advanced threat detection** that help secure both legacy systems and cutting-edge facilities. Cybersecurity consultants will be on hand to share practical steps for enabling **safe remote operations** and achieving compliance with evolving regulations like NIS2.


Driving Sustainability at Scale

Sustainability doesn’t have to be an abstract corporate goal—it can be systemic, measurable, and scalable. Rockwell Automation will present **energy management tools, predictive analytics, and advanced control systems** that enable reductions in flaring, improvements in electrical efficiency, and enhanced emissions management. This vision extends into the future with support for **carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS)**, as well as **green hydrogen production** through scalable automation.

These priorities are built on findings from a Rockwell Automation–commissioned outlook, which reveals that **AI, IoT, and cybersecurity are the driving forces** behind the oil and gas sector’s move from isolated technologies to integrated digital ecosystems.  


Collaborating for the Energy Transformation

Rockwell Automation’s **PartnerNetwork™ ecosystem** will be a major part of its ADIPEC presence. By teaming up with energy-specialist collaborators, the company will demonstrate proven solutions that cover the entire energy spectrum—upstream, midstream, LNG, and emerging renewable segments.  

As Eren explains:  
> "Customers want tested solutions that reduce project risk and deliver lifecycle value… We help producers and equipment manufacturers standardize designs, enable virtual commissioning, and support remote diagnostics—shortening time-to-first-oil or gas and improving total cost of ownership."  

For those attending ADIPEC 2025, this is more than an exhibition—it’s a window into the future of energy production. You can explore it all in **Hall 15, Stand #15140**.  


Rockwell Automation’s message is loud and clear—digital transformation in the energy industry is no longer a choice, it’s a competitive imperative. With integrated architectures, robust cybersecurity, and a commitment to sustainability, they’re not just keeping up with the energy transition—they’re helping define it.  




Pioneering Industrial Transformation: Ahmad Haydar Takes the Helm at Rockwell Automation in Saudi Arabia


In a significant development for the industrial landscape of Saudi Arabia, Rockwell Automation, the world's largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, has appointed Ahmad Haydar as the new country manager. This strategic move underscores Rockwell Automation's commitment to supporting the Kingdom's ambitious Vision 2030 initiative, which aims to transform Saudi Arabia into a global hub for advanced manufacturing and technology. Haydar, who boasts nearly 20 years of experience in the automation industry, will be based in Dammam and will report to Ediz Eren, the regional vice president for the Middle East, Türkiye, and Africa.

Haydar’s extensive background, including a decade spent at Rockwell Automation, equips him with the necessary skills to lead the company’s efforts in helping industrial organizations across the Kingdom harness the full potential of Saudi Vision 2030. "Ahmad's appointment reflects our deep commitment to supporting the Kingdom's industrial evolution," stated Eren. His leadership and technical expertise will be instrumental in guiding Saudi companies toward embracing smart manufacturing and digitalization, aligning with the transformative goals set forth by the Vision 2030 framework.

A Vision for the Future: Commitment to Innovation and Local Talent

As the newly appointed country manager, Ahmad Haydar expressed his enthusiasm for taking on this pivotal role during a transformative period for the Kingdom. He acknowledges the bold roadmap presented by Saudi Vision 2030 and emphasizes the importance of collaborating with customers to deliver innovative solutions that enhance efficiency, sustainability, and long-term growth. His vision aligns seamlessly with Rockwell Automation's mission to foster a culture of industrial innovation within the Kingdom.

Moreover, Haydar recognizes the significance of investing in local talent and partnerships. "Equally important is our commitment to supporting knowledge transfer and helping prepare Saudi national graduates for the world of industrial digital transformation," he remarked. This commitment not only strengthens the local workforce but also ensures that Saudi Arabia continues to advance in its quest for technological excellence, ultimately positioning itself as a leader in the global manufacturing arena. 

Ahmad Haydar's appointment heralds a new chapter for Rockwell Automation in Saudi Arabia. With his expertise and dedication, the company is poised to play a crucial role in the Kingdom's industrial evolution, driving forward the ambitious goals of Vision 2030.
