OUR VAlUED GUESTS.
On behalf of all my fellow graduates, I would like to ex-
press our extreme gratitude and appreciation for your
sponsorship and support on this very special day.
Today, we leave the Petroleum Institute, but we will never
forget the lasting impact of our experiences… of being part
of the PI.
Today, we become independent…
Today, we leave the shelter of the PI, ready to engage the
challenges of reality.
Today, we start a new journey equipped with the best
knowledge, experience, skills and training to succeed.
Today, we can proudly say that we have earned one of the
most sought after degrees ever to be offered in the Middle
East.
Today, we graduate… eager to start applying everything
we learned at the PI.
We take great pride in the outstanding academic prepara-
tion we received at the PI. We had the best faculty… We
had the best facilities… We were educated using state-of-
the-art technology only fit for the best universities. We are
aware of how respected and valued the PI graduates are
and we are not surprised. We have had a first-hand account
of how every single person at the PI spares no effort to-
wards reaching the ultimate goal of preparing graduates
who are armed with the ability to be original (innovative)
and creative.
We have been waiting passionately for this day… the day
when we start using our knowledge to serve our beloved
country. Today, we start repaying our debt to the UAE and
to the soul of the founder of its union and the master ar-
chitect of its civilization - His Highness Sheikh Zayed Bin
Sultan Al Nahyan - May Allah have mercy upon his soul.
We have a pledge to make to the wise government of the
UAE under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa
Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, and to Their
Highnesses, Members of the Federal Supreme Council, Rul-
ers of the Emirates, and to His Highness Sheikh Moham-
mad Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.
We pledge to spare no effort, to be dedicated and to work
hard for the prosperity of the UAE. We pledge to follow
your lead and to always offer our best for the better future
of the UAE.
last, but definitely not least, we acknowledge our grati-
tude to the Petroleum Institute with all its academic and
administrative divisions for everything they offered us,
along with their care and dedication. We wish all PI stu-
dents success and good luck and hope that they will cher-
ish this great moment of graduation.
Above all, our appreciation, love and respect to our dear
families for their care and support. Without your efforts
and your prayers, none of this would have been possible.
Thank you very much. Peace be upon you all.
