INVITATION TO ATTEND

Welcome to all participants and I invite you to join us for the Middle East Water Week Conference & Exhibition in 2025. This remarkable event will focus on two vital topics – Produced Water Management and Industrial Water Management. Building upon the resounding success of our previous events, the conference aims to address the challenges, opportunities and innovations in both produced water and industrial water management. We will delve into technological advancements, environmental regulations, water treatment and effective reuse strategies, striving to advance sustainable practices in these critical areas. The conference is scheduled to take place from 20th – 23rd April 2025 at the Kempinski Al-Othman, Al-Khobar, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Produced Water Society is delighted to host this prestigious event, providing a unique platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration among professionals and subject matter experts in the field. It will be a fantastic opportunity for industry leaders, subject matter experts, government officials and environmental professionals to come together, exchange ideas and showcase their innovative technologies, best practices and valuable lessons learned in both produced water and industrial water management.

In our collective pursuit of a sustainable future, we extend a special invitation to all IOCs and NOCs to play a pivotal role in the development and maintenance of this knowledge exchange. Together, we can support the region’s plans for a sustainable future and protect our invaluable resources and environment for generations to come. As a production chemist at heart, I am particularly excited to witness the wealth of technical knowledge and expertise we have gathered and the positive impact we can collectively make. Join us at the conference and be an integral part of this essential journey towards sustainable produced water and industrial water management.

We eagerly anticipate your active participation and are committed to creating a memorable and impactful event in 2025. Let us unite to shape the future of produced water and industrial water management and contribute to a more sustainable and prosperous industry.
