New Fujairah Port Terminals for UAE

Due to the Iran War heavily restricting access through the Strait of Hormuz, DP World has reached an agreement in principle with the Fujairah Ports Authority. Under a 50-year concession, they will develop two new terminals on the UAE’s east coast: the Al Rugaylat container and multi-purpose terminal, and the Dibba General Cargo terminal.

Why this matters to buyers

The development of new port terminals in the UAE provides an alternative logistics route, potentially mitigating risks associated with the Strait of Hormuz. This could affect shipping routes, transit times, and costs for goods moving to or through the Middle East.

Recommended buyer actions

  • Research the capabilities and target cargo types of the new Al Rugaylat and Dibba terminals for future planning.
