His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, has hailed the move by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, ADNOC, to unify its group of companies under one corporate identity brand.

"Unifying the @AdnocGroup of companies under one corporate identity is the right step at the right time. It will enable our biggest national company to leverage its strengths and reinforce its competitiveness," Sheikh Mohamed tweeted on Sunday.

"Unity and focus across our companies will strengthen their effectiveness and enable them to play a greater role in our national development. To keep pace with changing times, agile companies must focus on maximising value and investing in people to strengthen performance," he added.
