Energy Minister Suhail al-Mazrouei said the UAE will protect energy infrastructure and invest in new export routes.
Plans also cover storage capacity abroad and shipping fleets for greater readiness.

A new pipeline to Fujairah is due to double crude capacity by next year.
The minister said the war’s course cannot be predicted, but the UAE aims to be better prepared than before.
