GULF's participation reaffirms its position as Thailand's leading energy and infrastructure conglomerate, under the overarching theme "Integrated Infrastructure, Powering Tomorrow" — a vision that unites a strong foundation in energy security, the accelerated expansion of clean energy, and the advancement of digital and AI infrastructure to support long-term economic growth for Thailand and the wider region.
Mr. Sarath Ratanavadi, Chief Executive Officer, Gulf Development Public Company Limited, said, "Thailand's role as host of Gastech this year is a testament to investors' confidence in the country, particularly in the energy sector. As the world transitions toward cleaner energy, natural gas remains central to power system security — especially as electricity demand accelerates alongside the rapid growth of data centers. We would like to see the government establish clear policies on zoning and the promotion of clean energy, ensuring these developments deliver genuine economic value. GULF has recently partnered with Singtel on a submarine cable project that will help lower the cost of AI data processing and strengthen Thailand's competitiveness within the region. I believe Thailand's economic outlook is improving, driven by government stimulus policies that are building confidence among foreign investors. GULF remains committed to long-term investment in the power business, while expanding into data centers and digital infrastructure, to help drive Thailand's growth and competitiveness on the regional stage."
Throughout the four-day event, GULF showcased the strength of its business group through the GULF Pavilion, spanning more than 420 square metres. The pavilion featured the ecosystem showcase, illustrating the connectivity across GULF's four core businesses — energy, natural gas resources, ports and logistics, and digital and telecommunications — alongside an immersive zone offering a 360-degree visual experience that took visitors on a journey from a secure energy foundation to becoming a driver of the new economy.
Built on three strategic pillars, GULF is anchoring energy security through end-to-end natural gas and LNG infrastructure; accelerating sustainable power by expanding its renewable energy portfolio in pursuit of its Net Zero goal; and scaling infrastructure at the speed of AI by advancing digital infrastructure, data centres and AI capabilities to support investment from leading global technology companies — directions closely aligned with this year's Gastech focus on the convergence of energy, power systems and AI.
