Ten people were injured in a berthing incident in Jebel Ali, when a vessel collided with a harbour wall late last week.
"A CMA CGM container vessel collided with the harbour wall striking the leg of a quay crane causing it to fall. A second crane was also shifted off its rails during the incident but remained upright and stable," DP World said in a statement.
The incident took place on Thursday, May 4 at Jebel Ali Port, Terminal 1, DP World said.
"Our first priority is the safety and wellbeing of our employees and all visitors to the port. DP World's terminal safety teams responded immediately to the incident and head office global safety teams joined them on site within five minutes. Working with external emergency response teams, the area was evacuated and an exclusion zone created. Safety drones were also deployed to survey the area, locate anyone in need of medical assistance and to ensure the safety of the responding crews," the statement said.
The incident resulted in one moderate and nine minor injuries. Medical treatment for all minor injuries was received at the DP World Medical Clinic at the terminal, while the individual with the moderate injury, a fractured arm and leg, was taken to hospital and is currently in a stable condition.
An investigation is currently under way to establish the cause of the incident. The collapsed quay crane will be removed following all necessary safety procedures once the investigation has been completed. The second crane is under assessment for structural integrity and not in use until further notice.
