CAIRO - Dredging and tugging aimed at freeing a mega vessel stuck in the Suez Canal failed on Friday to end a blockage that has lifted shipping rates for fuel tankers and scrambled global supply chains for everything from grains to baby clothes.

A U.S. official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the Navy was prepared to send a team of dredging experts to the canal, but was awaiting approval from local authorities. A Dutch rescue team had confirmed two additional tugs would arrive on March 28 to help dislodge the ship, BSM said. The SCA welcomed a U.S. offer to help. Turkey also said it can send a vessel to the canal, amid a push by Ankara to repair ties with Egypt after years of animosity.

Mohab Mamish, the Egyptian presidential adviser on Suez Canal projects and sea ports, told MBC Misr TV a floating crane should be used to transfer some of the Ever Given’s containers to another ship to lighten the vessel and enable it to float. Egypt’s SUMED pipeline operator approached crude traders to see whether they wanted to book space in the system but so far traders prefer to wait to avoid high additional costs.

What can be done to raise the water level in the canal. The bow appears to be stuck as if it were on a sand bar. Can floation devices be used to raise the bow? Can the ship be pulled off the canal bank somehow? Can a torque be applied to rotate the ship?

All this is a montage prepared to have a justification and raise the price of fuel that during the Titan era remained below $ 2.00

Dynamite will work

What would Elon do?

just hold a big magnet over it and lift it out! or dig a tunnel with a new canal beneath it underground! no one listens to me

Put an empty ship behind it, then unload cargo with helicopters.

I hope it tips over. Serves them right. Ridiculously big.

They need to simultaneously push and pull the back end away from the canal bank. The big bulb in front is embedded so a waste of time. Am I the only one to see this?

what a mess!

ربما يكون الحل في التالي: ١/ تفريغ الحمولة أو ٢/ تفريغ فقط الجزء الأمامي وزيارة الثقل من الخلف مع السحب تجاه المياة ٣/ نفخ بالونات تحت السفينة لتعويمها ٤/ الحفرة من احد الجانبين

Perhaps a canal dug in sans over 100 years ago should be wider , since for obvious reasons like behemoth ships ....

That's the story. Get that suction dredge under the front of it. Pull like buggery with the tugs.

Why not cut the ship in half using probably electric saws and then reassemble the two halves later by welding

AFP writes that blocking Suez is primarily beneficial to RU, which has been promoting its Northern Sea Route and now Putin is using the situation to actively impose his route The vaccine is bad, the Northern Sea Route is bad What's good, idiots? Pandemic and traffic jam in Suez?

Before they launched for Mars they had to think how can we protect the Suez Channel... It is a miracle that this kind of Incidents never happened before.. Tjere is only One Chanell which shortrns the sea traffic of 30 thousand kilometers !!If so, then you protect that.

I think they need a bigger boat.

It might be quicker to dig another canal

Just another distraction in the world people should wake up......

1 blockage and the world's fucked. Wow.

honestly just cut it in half or something, it'll be a lot less than losing around $7M a minute I think was the figure

Impressive

Why do i believe this was deliberately done, the original reporting of this story. But i could be wrong and everything said about this happened is legit, still i believe this was done on purpose.. Maybe

Today, confirmed 20+ Myanmar Citizens are brutally killed by Myanmar Junta. Death numbers may increase during this day. ANTIFASCIST REVOLUTION WhatsHappeningInMyanmar AntiFascistRevolution2021 Mar27Coup

Wouldn't it raise the ship if they remove some of that cargo. Looks like a lot of containers on it.

Maybe a second JCB? Don't worry, it's only 12% of the world economy we're talking about.

Bad luck. Egypt need to seriously think before trying to mess with Ethiopia. Border conflict with sudan then this incident and now a train crash. What will be next

Last article said they’d suspended efforts until Saturday?

My ps5 is on that ship
