Ismail Maraie is the head of the Corporate Archive Section in the Abu Dhabi National Oli Company ADNOC. He has 26 years of experience in Records Management, and has been actively involved in the development of record keeping in ADNOC over that period.

ADNOC was established in 1971, to operate in all areas of the oil and gas industry. It now has 15 affiliated companies working in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries, including transportation and other services. In consequence it’s record holdings are a reflection of this multi-faceted industry.

He also provides operational assistance to organisational units throughout the Adnoc Group companies, in the development and maintenance of their active ‘on-floor’ filing systems.
