ESAM Khoory has been appointed the director of DP World's new container terminal 3 (T3) at Jebel Ali port in Dubai, UAE. The terminal is in its final commissioning stage to officially receive its first commercial vessel.
Terminal 3 will add four million TEU capacity, taking total capacity at Jebel Ali to 19 million TEU, once fully operational in 2015, a company statement said.
Chairman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem said: "DP World has invested in building the industry experience and corporate leadership skills in a growing number of talented Emiratis, including Esam, who are now working in senior roles across our international portfolio of marine terminals.
"In his new role, Esam, together with his colleagues in Jebel Ali operations team, are raising the industry standards, transforming container handling and marine terminal operations with automation and technology driven operations," he said.
Mr Khoory joined the company in 1995. Before this appointment, he was director of the procurement and material management department in the UAE region.
Said Mr Khoory: "For 19 years, I have lived the development of terminal operations at Jebel Ali, but, with the state-of-the-art sophisticated equipment and fully automated procedures at Terminal 3, we are offering something totally new."
