Breakthrough achievements in the oil and gas sector
Over the past five decades, Petrovietnam has transformed from a technology recipient into a technology innovator, establishing itself as a pioneering force in Vietnam and across the region. The group’s transformation is clearly illustrated by several landmark achievements once considered technically impossible.
The organization’s groundbreaking success in extracting oil from the granite basement at the Bach Ho field marked a major technical milestone, challenging conventional thinking in the industry. This achievement strengthened Petrovietnam’s reputation for solving complex geological challenges and demonstrated the group’s commitment to pushing past technological limits.
Additional major achievements include the successful collection and onshore transportation of associated gas, the optimization of operations at the Dung Quat Refinery, and mastery of the technology for installing super-heavy offshore platforms. These achievements reflect the company’s growing technical capability and its ability to carry out complex engineering projects in challenging environments.

Transition to new energy technologies
Today, Petrovietnam operates under the guiding philosophy of “science paves the way, innovation leads breakthroughs.” This approach continues to shape the company’s strategic direction as it enters the new energy era, focusing on emerging technologies and sustainable solutions.
The company’s current technology portfolio spans many areas of renewable and clean energy development, including offshore wind projects, green hydrogen production, green ammonia production, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) development, and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCS/CCUS) technologies.
This diversification demonstrates Petrovietnam’s strategic commitment to the energy transition, while drawing on its proven experience in complex energy projects and offshore operations.
A growth strategy driven by innovation
Petrovietnam’s approach to technological progress combines strong intellectual capability with mechanisms that foster innovation and a long-term strategic vision. The company has identified science and technology as the main driver for creating sustainable energy solutions that benefit both Vietnam and the global energy industry.
Its commitment to continuous innovation prepares the organization to tackle emerging challenges in the energy transition, while maintaining operational excellence in traditional oil and gas activities. This balanced approach allows Petrovietnam to contribute to national energy security while supporting international sustainable development goals.
As it enters its next half century, Petrovietnam remains focused on leveraging its accumulated experience and technological capability to drive sustainable energy development and maintain its position as a leading energy enterprise in the region.
At the series of events Petrovietnam Celebrates 50 Years of Science and Technology Innovation, ADT Global served as a strategic technology partner, delivering a comprehensive digitalization solution suite. The centerpiece of the exhibit is a specially designed interactive exhibition booth solution that visualizes complex oil and gas operations as a series of modern technology touchpoints.
To optimize the flow of data analysis for delegates and visitors, the equipment infrastructure is synchronized with a high-definition interactive event display system. Working in parallel with an intelligent interactive controller, this ecosystem empowers users to proactively retrieve reports, rotate 3D mechanical model assemblies, and navigate project information in real time, seamlessly.
Going beyond conventional physical presentation, the highlight of the event is the integration of immersive XR technology. This solution comprehensively simulates the scale of massive offshore structures, delivering a breakthrough spatial experience and demonstrating the company’s high-tech application capability in operations.
