MEScon welcomes you to Abu Dhabi

The Middle East’s premier event for the sulphur global industry, MEScon 2025, returns to the Conrad Abu Dhabi, Etihad Towers from 19 to 22 May 2025.

The 2025 Middle East Sulphur Conference (MEScon 2025) organised by CRU and UniverSUL Consulting and hosted by ADNOC will reconvene at the Conrad Abu Dhabi, Etihad Towers in Abu Dhabi, UAE, from 19 to 22 May 2024.

Located at the epicentre of global sulphur and sour hydrocarbon production, this premier sulphur event will gather representatives from along the entire sour gas / sulphur value chain to promote technology and innovation, lessons learned, best practices, knowledge transfer, and R&D.

Angie Slavens, Managing Director, UniverSUL Consulting, provides a taste of what you can expect at MEScon 2025:

“We’ve always said MEScon is more than just a conference – it’s a community. But this year, it’s also a catalyst. As the sulphur industry’s centre of gravity continues to shift to the Middle East, MEScon is where innovation is taking root. From the ADRIC competition for new sulphur applications to new developments in digitalization, green initiatives and the circular economy, we’re spotlighting bold ideas and regional leadership. And through MESconnect, our new mentorship program, we are actively preparing the next generation to carry that momentum forward.”
