The Evergreen Marine Corporation operates the ship Ever Given, but does not own it as an earlier version said. This article was amended on 18 April 2022. Crews have started the pain-staking process to lighten the load on the Ever Forward by removing containers from the stuck ship. The Associated Press contributed to this report Crews also continued dredging to a depth of 43ft (13 meters) around the vessel. The containers were placed onto barges and taken to Baltimore’s Seagirt Marine Terminal.Īfter two failed efforts to free the more than 1,000-ft (305-meter) vessel, salvage experts determined earlier this month that unloading some of the containers offered the best chance to refloat it. Salvage crews continued to offload containers from the Ever Forward until 10.30pm on Saturday. The ship became stuck outside the shipping channel and did not block marine navigation, unlike last year’s high-profile grounding in the Suez Canal of its sister vessel, the Ever Given. Mysterium is an asymmetric card game in which players take on one of two different. The last time something like this happened was last year a ship owned by the same company got stuck and blocked the Suez Canal in. The Coast Guard has not said what caused the Ever Forward to run aground. The Ever Forward ran aground 24 feet deep into mud on March 13. Officials have said the grounding did not result in reports of injuries, damage or pollution. The cargo ship, operated by Taiwan-based Evergreen Marine Corp, was traveling from Baltimore to Norfolk, Virginia, on 13 March, when it ran aground just north of the Chesapeake bay bridge. A tugboat pushes a barge full of containers away from the Ever Forward container ship in Pasadena, Maryland, on 11 April.
