Last year the operated harbour terminals from the DP World group of Dubay have enlivened altogether a containerized trade pairs to 56,1 million container from 20 ' (teu), with a progression of 2.4% regarding 2011.

We remember that from such perimeter the Australian terminals of the Middle Eastern group have exited, with effect from on March 12, 2011, whose control is yielded to Citi Infrastructure Investors ( on 22 December 2010).
Altogether last year the terminals of the group in Asia and Oceania have enlivened 26,2 million teu, with an increment of 6.2% on the 2011 (consolidated traffic have been of 54, million teu, -3,2% on 2011), the terminals in Europe, Middle East and Africa has enlivened 23,0 million teu, with a decrease of 2.0% (consolidated: 19,2 million teu, +0.5%), and the terminals in the Americas and Australia 6,9 million teu, with an increase of 4.3% (consolidated: 2,5 million teu, -10,4%).
"After a positive beginning of the year - the managing director of DP World has commented, Mohammed Sharaf - we have had a difficult second half of the year. Thanks to our absolute attention to the quality of the costs and the revenues, we preview to record for 2012 an EBITDA online with the expectations. The profit before taxes will benefit of smaller financial burdens. 2013 - it has anticipated Sharaf - are for us a year exciting for the new ability that we have in program to activate Santos, in Brazil, to Jebel Ali, in the United Arab Emirates, and to London Gateway, in the United Kingdom. Even if permane mota uncertainty on the macroeconomics, we consider of being very positioned in order to complete ulterior progresses in 2013".
