Exceptional projects, initiatives lauded at Asian Power Awards, Asian Oil & Gas Awards, and inaugural Asian Water Awards
Winners were recognised at the awards dinner on 8 November 2023.
The power, oil & gas, and water industries in Asia have witnessed significant transformation in recent years, driven by economic growth and growing demand. This is amidst various challenges and the growing trend to shift to sustainable energy sources and environmentally-friendly practices.
As an expression of appreciation and recognition for the key players within these industries, Asian Power Magazine proudly presented the Asian Power Awards, Asian Oil & Gas Awards, and Asian Water Awards to celebrate the innovative and groundbreaking projects and initiatives in the region.
Dubbed the “Oscars” of the power industry, and now in its 19th year, the Asian Power Awards provides industry players with an opportunity to be acknowledged for their exceptional power projects and share their experiences with one another.
The inaugural Asian Water Awards, on the other hand, celebrates excellence in Asia’s water sector, whilst the Asian Oil & Gas Awards is in its third year and lauds top oil and gas companies in the region.
