Abu Dhabi - January 26, 2009

City Gas MENA Conference Recognizes Company's Role in Delivering Gas from Qatar to UAE and Oman

Last night Dolphin Energy Limited received the prestigious award of 'Gas Industry Supplier of the Year' during the 'City Gas Middle East & North Africa (MENA) Summit,' currently taking place in Abu Dhabi.

The presentation was made to Ahmed Matar Al Mazrouei, Dolphin Energy's Vice President of Marketing and Commercial, by Mark Hopes, a senior board member of the Institute of Gas Engineers and Managers (IGEM), which is officially supporting the event. The ceremony was held at Abu Dhabi's Sheraton Hotel during the City Gas Gala Dinner, sponsored by ADNOC and GASCO.

Mr. Al Mazrouei remarked that the Award would make all Dolphin employees proud of this public recognition for their work. He added: "The Company's contribution to providing stable energy supplies for the southern Gulf is now well known.

"Our staff, working closely with the Governments of Abu Dhabi and Qatar and our contractors, have created one of the world's leading gas production, processing and supply companies in just nine years."

The City Gas MENA Summit 2009 is taking place between January 25 and 27. The conference focuses on the challenges of developing downstream gas markets so as to deliver clean energy for transport, residential, industrial and commercial needs.
