suez canal work normally

The Ever Given freighter went off-line on the afternoon of the 29th and ended almost a week of stranded life on the Suez canal. It headed northward along the canal and sailed into the Great Bitter Lake in the middle of the canal for equipment inspection.

At 9:15 p.m. local time on March 29th, Egypt, the freighter “YM Wish” slowly sailed out of the southbound exit of the Canal and headed to its next stop, Saudi Arabia. The global nightmare finally ended.

It is the Suez Canal that has been waiting for a week.

The problem is not over yet

Rabie said at a press conference held on the evening of the 29th that it is estimated that it will take about three to three and a half days to clear the queue of ships. He had previously stated that once the rescue is successful, the Suez Canal will pass around the clock to make up for the waiting time of the stranded cargo ships.

He said that there are currently 422 ships waiting to pass through. He expects that 113 ships will pass through the Suez canal in the early morning of the 30th. This is similar to previous estimates by the World Shipping Council, which stated that under normal conditions, the Canal can pass 106 ships per day.

However, although the Suez Canal Authority believes that the clogging problem can be solved in a few days. But shipping companies and institutions are not so optimistic. Maersk, the world’s largest container transport group, said that the destructive effects of a week’s blockage of the Suez Canal on the global shipping industry may take weeks or even months to resolve.

Maersk said that now the company has three freighters blocked on the Suez Canal, and another 29 are waiting to enter. “From the current ship backlog, it may take six days or more for all teams to pass.” 15 of the company’s vessels have diverted to the Cape of Good Hope route, which will take approximately 14 days longer than the Suez Canal route.
