ADNOC Gas Processing, previously known as GASCO, can be numbered among the largest companies in the United Arab Emirates (“Optimizing resources,” n.d.). The company was established more than forty years ago, and it is headquartered in Abu Dhabi. Nowadays, ADNOC Gas Processing is one of the most successful gas producers in the United Arab Emirates as well as the entire world. SWOT Analysis At first thought, the company under consideration may seem to face no serious threats due to a large number of opportunities for further development that it has. An objective analysis of any company involves taking into account both strong and weak points related to a company’s activity. Among the tools helping to consider both positive and negative sides of companies’ activity, there is SWOT analysis. In terms of the strengths of the given company, it is pivotal to highlight that ADNOC Gas Processing is an official market leader in the United Arab Emirates when it comes to the extraction of oil. Due to that, it is clear that the impact of industry rivalry on ADNOC Gas Processing cannot be listed among factors that produce risks and encourage the company to review its strategy. The oil-processing capacity of plants owned by ADNOC is extremely high as is clear from the average number of barrels of oil produced every day. The latter can be numbered among the key statements that the company is proud of. The recent reports state that ADNOC produces at least three million barrels of oil per day (“Our products,” n.d.). Another strength associated with the company and its business strategy is that it is not going to rest on its laurels, missing the chance to generate more financial resources. They can be spent on the development of the Petroleum Institute Research Center located in the United Arab Emirates and other projects (“Research & development,” n.d.). In general, numerous strengths of the business strategy of ADNOC are inherent in the company’s willingness to invest in both professional research and education. The latter remains one of the most important decisions made by the management of the company under consideration. Such investments do not only allow ADNOC to improve oil processing technologies in order to reduce the costs of working processes and maximize profits but also help the company to create a better social image and demonstrate its readiness to contribute to the lasting prosperity of the United Arab Emirates. Continuing on the topic of strengths, a great number of strategic partners of ADNOC among both developed and developing countries needs to be taken into account (“ADNOC Group sustainability report 2015: Executive summary,” 2015). Selling its products across five continents (the largest buyers of ADNOC’s products are represented by Asian countries), the company has managed to win international acclaim to be listed among the most promising oil production and processing companies. There are a few weaknesses associated with the strategy of ADNOC and its units. To begin with, even though the company has established its own educational institution that is responsible for the training of specialists, ADNOC still uses the help of foreign specialists in oil extraction technologies (“ADNOC Group sustainability report 201
