The dual exploration model explained: selling a stake in a proven oil or gas discovery while it is still appreciating, then recycling the cash into the next campaign. What it is, how the economics work, and why Eni built it.
While the Western majors defend their balance sheets, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company is doing the opposite. Through XRG, a global investment vehicle now valued above 150 billion dollars, ADNOC is buying chemicals giants, building an international gas platform and positioning explicitly for the power demand of artificial intelligence. This dossier examines what ADNOC is doing, the logic behind it, and what it means for everyone who sells into, competes with, or buys from the most expansionary major in energy.

Energy buying is long, multi-stakeholder and credibility-led, and the channel mix that wins it in 2026 looks nothing like generic B2B.
