AD Ports Group confirms operations continue as normal
AD Ports Group has confirmed that all its operations are continuing despite recent regional developments affecting maritime traffic in the Gulf. As a precautionary measure, the group has activated its crisis management and business continuity protocols in coordination with relevant UAE authorities to safeguard its workforce, partners and stakeholders while ensuring uninterrupted services to customers.
All UAE ports and terminals managed and operated by the group’s Ports Cluster, together with related services, remain fully operational, the company said in a statement. However, as traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has declined, a corresponding reduction in vessel calls at Khalifa Port is anticipated.
The group nevertheless expects increased volumes across its diversified global maritime network as trading routes shift due to evolving geopolitical developments. As a result, the overall impact on AD Ports Group’s Maritime & Shipping Cluster is expected to remain limited.
Captain Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi, Managing Director and Group CEO of AD Ports Group, said: “Global trade has historically demonstrated resilience during periods of geopolitical tension. Through disciplined execution, operational excellence and proactive risk management, AD Ports Group remains well positioned to support supply chain stability and uphold its commitments to customers across its global network, in line with vision with our wise leadership.”
