ADNOC Headquarters, Abu Dhabi

The headquarters of ADNOC, or Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, is one of the most distinctive points of the Abu Dhabi skyline, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. The impressive skyscraper with a futuristic design, located on the Corniche, is not only the operational center of the national oil company but also a symbol of modernity and the country's growing economic power.

The 342-meter-tall ADNOC headquarters was officially opened in 2015 and quickly became one of the most recognizable buildings in the region. Its design, which combines elements of traditional Arabic architecture and modern minimalism, is the work of the international architectural firm HOK.

The building consists of 76 floors, which include offices, conference centers, and numerous communal spaces for employees and guests. The glass facade provides an unobstructed view of the Persian Gulf, while maximizing the use of natural light and reducing energy consumption.

The ADNOC headquarters is not a typical tourist attraction, as it is a public utility building, but its architecture attracts the attention of both residents and visitors. At night, the building is impressively illuminated, making it an even more prominent feature on the city's architectural map.
