The Ever Given, stuck in the Suez Canal for six days in March, finally berthed at the Port of Rotterdam on Thursday.
More than 3 months after getting stuck in Suez Canal, container ship, cargo and crew are moving again
The saga of the Ever Given moves to its next chapter as the container ship that captured the world’s attention when it became wedged between the banks of the Suez Canal in March is released from custody in Egypt to resume its voyage to the Netherlands.
An agreement reportedly has been reached that will allow the Ever Given to finally resume the voyage halted when the container ship became wedged between the Suez Canal banks in March.
Some importers are rethinking how to move their products due to the Ever Given’s “very sorry situation.”
‘We pulled it off!’ says salvage company Boskalis after freeing the container ship.
Digging and pulling haven’t freed the giant Ever Given vessel that has stopped traffic in the Suez Canal. The next step might be to lighten the vessel by removing cargo.
Additional dredgers have been brought in to help dig out the 20,000-TEU Evergreen Marine container ship.
