For the past five decades Crescent Petroleum has worked to creatively unlock the benefits of energy resources and deliver transformative impact on the communities we serve.

From our headquarters in Sharjah, in the UAE, we have grown to become the first and largest private upstream exploration and production company in the Middle East, with international offices in Iraq and the UK, and significant interests in Egypt.

Crescent Petroleum was formed by a consortium of respected oil and gas companies in 1971 to unlock the immense value of offshore resources in Sharjah and to fuel the development of the emirate.

Since then we have leveraged our understanding of the Middle East to promote cleaner energy and social sustainability, setting ourselves apart as a regional champion in the UAE and a partner in progress in Iraq and across our areas of operation.

Crescent Petroleum is a subsidiary of Crescent Group, a diversified privately owned business headquartered located in the UAE. The company is also the founding and largest shareholder in Dana Gas, a publicly listed private-sector natural gas company in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

We are proud to have made a direct impact on the growth and development of this region and are committed to supporting the development of the next generation to prepare them for a new age of work and future prosperity.
