A working exercise for the AI Analyst Intern role, built from DP World's own H1 2026 release. Every dotted figure opens the line it came from.

That is DP World's first half of 2026. I rebuilt the numbers to see where the money went. Drag the dot on the last bar to change the margin and watch the bridge rebalance. Hover any bar to see how it is built.

Source: DP World H1 2026 results release, 13 Aug 2026. Revenue effect is the change in revenue at the H1 2025 margin. Margin effect is H1 2026 revenue times the change in margin. Axis starts at zero.

What the role asks for, and where you can try it

Tried: 0 of 7

Seven things from the role description, each one something you can do on this page. The only DP World data used is its public H1 2026 release.

Identify tasks AI and automation could improve, with Finance, Legal, Commercial, Operations and Business DevelopmentA team map: a card per team with the task, a hypothesis, the data needed, a test and a measure
Help create and test automated workflowsA release goes in, figures come out, get checked against the source, then a draft is written
Improve financial reporting for speed and accuracyEdit any figure in a results brief and watch the check catch it. Click any dotted figure for its source line
Use Excel to organise and analyse dataAn EBITDA bridge you can drag, with the Excel formulas behind it
Find trends and insights in the dataVolumes fell 5.7%, or rose 5.4%? Switch Jebel Ali on and off, reported and like-for-like
Track accuracy and time saved, and present the impactA pilot log template for every team, empty on purpose, with no results claimed
Own a project from idea to implementation, test it, take feedbackA small container-terminal model: change the calls, break a crane, read the bottleneck

Where did Jebel Ali go?

H1 2025H1 2026

Gross throughput, million TEU, as reported. Jebel Ali alone is my subtraction: all ports minus the release's figure excluding Jebel Ali. Click a figure for its source.

What the release does not say

DP World gives adjusted EBITDA growth excluding Jebel Ali (+9.7%) but not Jebel Ali's own EBITDA. Pick a guess for its share of H1 2025 and see what the rest has to imply.

20% of H1 2025 EBITDA
Jebel Ali, H1 2025 (US$m)
Rest of network, H1 2025
Rest of network, H1 2026 (+9.7%)
Jebel Ali, H1 2026 (what is left of 2,863)

This assumes the 9.7% sits on the same basis as the group figures. That is my assumption, not DP World's.

A results brief, with receipts

This brief is built from the release, and a script checks every figure against it. Now you try: change any number and see whether the check catches it.

20 of 20figures match the release

In my blind test the script checked 28 figures (18 reported, 10 derived), all correct. When I changed one on purpose, it flagged it. Twenty of them are in this brief.

From release to checked draft

The workflow I would pilot with Finance, run here on the real H1 2026 release. Press Run, click a step, or change one figure yourself to see the check stop it.

A demonstration with public data. It is not a DP World system, and it saves no time yet: I would measure that in the pilot log below.

Where AI could help, team by team

Click a team. Each card gives the task, a hypothesis, the data I would need, how I would test it and what I would measure.

Each one is a hypothesis to test with the team. I claim no time or cost savings until a pilot measures them. Whatever the model drafts, a person reads it and signs it off.

The pilot log

Template, not resultsOne shared log with the same columns for every team. The cells are empty on purpose: I would fill them after real runs. Type into them to see how it would read.

A small terminal model I built

DP World has shown a live 3D digital twin of its vessels, yards and trucks. This is my small version: a toy container terminal that runs in your browser. Change the vessel calls and the trucks, break a crane, and watch where the flow jams. The numbers are not DP World data.

0Vessels waiting
0%Berth in use
0%Yard full
0Box moves per minute

The Jebel Ali button scales vessel calls by 0.405, the share left after the 59.5% drop I derived from DP World's H1 2026 release. The reading above is plain rules, not AI: the point is the model of the flow. Click a crane to break it.

My first four weeks

Week 1

Sit with one team and list their repeating reports.

Week 2

Pick the one with the clearest source data and build the draft-and-check workflow.

Week 3

Run it next to the current process and log the errors.

Week 4

Show the log to the vertical's leads and decide what to keep.
