He succeeds Vitaly Yusufov, who will preserve his links with the company as a member.
“I am extremely pleased that we have been able to gain the services of Dr Aly for the company. We now have one of the industry’s most well-respected shipbuilding experts on the board of Nordic Yards,” says Yusufov . “He will drive forward the development of the company and give fresh impetus to its transformation from a shipyard to an engineering services provider.”
The appointment of Dr.-Ing. Aly strengthens the top management of the Nordic Yards shipyard group and moves the focus specifically on to high-margin areas of business.
