Jubail Island gains ground as eco-friendly destination

Abdulla Saeed Al Shamsi, Operations Corporate Director of Jubail Island Investment Company said: “At Jubail Island, every day is World Environment Day as we continue to strengthen our position as a leading environmental destination in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.
