迪拜海事管理局（DMCA），作为全方位的监管、协调和监督海事各部门的政府机构，在迪拜王储和执行委员会主席H.H. His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashed Al Maktoum的支持下，宣布已经开始准备第三版迪拜海事展。DMCA从2016年10月30日到11月3日开始，每两年作为特殊活动举行一次。本次活动是迪拜在作为世界级海上目的地，努力提升全球海事地位的一部分。
兼任港口的海关、自贸区及DMCA主席的H.E. Sultan bin Sulayem，表达了对H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum支持海事展的感谢。此次活动对于迪拜以提供最佳服务为期望引进先进人才，把迪拜变成世界级海事中心来说是非常重要性的一步。H.E.称赞H.H.对当地海事部门长久以来的大力支持，这些措施促进了国民经济的发展，成为推动和加强迪拜在地区乃至全球竞争力的关键支柱。
H.E. Sultan bin Sulayem强调迪拜海事展为来自世界各地的主要决策者和领导人创建一个集成平台，其在加强海事交流与合作方面所起到的举足轻重作用。他指出，该活动提供了一个以促进海事部门在地区、区域乃至全球寻找最新发展趋势和最佳做法的战略平台。他补充说明道："DMCA致力于组织活动来彰显其光明前途及独一无二的海事部门符合政府提高海事版图竞争力水平和到2021年海事计划的美好愿望。"
H.E. Bin Sulayem说："阿联酋和迪拜特别是在开发海事基础设施和促进部门直接GDP贡献的海事部门，反过来，支持这一举措降低了对石油依赖性。DMCA渴望与国际海事团体分享在海事部门所做出的突出的贡献以及为提高海事产业和激发文化创新、创造力和改善长期服务质量方面交流经验和知识。这些都符合阿联酋副总统兼总理、迪拜统治者H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum建立一个生机勃勃、包容、多样化的综合性海事部门的愿景和方向。"
2016年迪拜海事展将举行一系列世界级的活动，如"迪拜海事高峰论坛"，将第一次推出迪拜海事创新奖。新的奖项将重点突出当地海事部门全年主要的贡献和创新举措。主要活动包括为全球海事领导者准备的一系列专业研讨会，如举办"中东贸易展"和"DMCA伙伴鉴赏集"，以及其他相关的研讨会和研习会。
DMCA的行政总监Amer Ali说："在此之前两次活动取得巨大成功之后，今年迪拜海事展的推出，反映了迪拜作为首要国际航运目的地的重要地位，以及其作为全球主要论坛和活动的组织者和举办地良好的声誉。这一事件具有重要战略意义，因为它代表了一种综合平台衡量关键优势和迪拜酋长国促进其作为区域性、全球性海上目标据点的特点。"
2016年迪拜海事展预计将吸引高达350家代表来自世界各地的领先航运企业的参展商。接待包括来自阿联酋的7000多名游客，该地区和世界领先的海事专家和学者将聚集在这一平台，同迪拜海事部门一起讨论最新的发展情况、可行性解决方案及商机。
