World's Largest Container Ship Successfully Passes Through the Suez Canal | Datamarnews 9/3/21, 4:43 PM World's Largest Container Ship Successfully Passes Through the Suez Canal | DatamarNews About Contact Us Media Kit SHIPPING WORLD’S LARGEST CONTAINER SHIP SUCCESSFULLY PASSES THROUGH THE SUEZ CANAL Sep, 02, 2021 Posted by Sylvia Schandert Week 202135 On August 28, the Ever Ace container ship made waves and turned heads with its unusual appearance. This monstrous oating box was built by Samsung Heavy Industries for Evergreen Marine Corporation and has a capacity of 23,992 TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit), making it the largest such vessel in the world. It is the newest addition to Evergreen’s eet and was delivered by the builder this July. The Ever Ace measures 1,312 ft (400 meters) in length and weighs approximately 235,000 tons. Because of its large size, the Suez Canal Authority (SCA) followed its protocols and offered navigation support during the transit, ensuring a safe passage of the ship. It also welcomed the captain and the crew of the vessel. The SCA later shared the moment on social media. Earlier this month, the Ever Ace set sail from the Port of Taipei in Taiwan, beginning its maiden voyage. Its destination is the Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands, where the container ship is expected to arrive on September 4. Evergreen Marine Corporation also owns the Ever Given ship, which made the headlines this spring for blocking the Suez Canal and causing a major disruption in global trade. It took six days to reoat it and hundreds of vessels had to wait their turn to pass through the 120-mile (193 km) long canal. Fortunately though, the Ever Ace had no problems in transiting it, even though it is ve ft wider than the Ever Given. Both container ships have the same length though.

Ever Given, a Golden Class 20,000 TEU container ship, on the morning at about 0744 local time of 23 March. The 400-metre-long (1,300 ft) vessel was buffeted by strong winds, and ended up wedging itself across the waterway, bow and stern stuck in the canal bank, which prevented other vessels from passing through that part of the Suez Canal. . 3 The Suez Canal is one of the world's busiest trade routes, and the obstruction had a significant negative impact on trade between Europe and Asia and the Middle East. On 28 March, at least 369 ships were queuing to pass through the canal. This prevented an estimated $9.6 billion worth of trade.

  • Suez Canal Blockage: an Analysis of Legal Impact, Risks and Liabilities to the Global Supply Chain
    MATEC Web of Conferences 339, 01019 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/202133901019 ISTSML 2021 Suez Canal blockage: an analysis of legal impact, risks and liabilities to the global supply chain 1 1* Jade Man-yin Lee , and Eugene Yin-cheung Wong 1The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, School of Decision Sciences, 6/F, Lee Quo Wei Academic Building, Hang Shin Link, Siu Lek Yuen, Shatin, Hong Kong Abstract. The global supply chain currently thrown into chaos due to the Suez Canal incident. On 23 March 2021, the Suez Canal, one of the most heavily used shipping routes, was blocked by vast container ship – the Ever Given. Affecting over 400 vessels scheduled to pass through the Canal in the East-West and West-East directions. Such vessels experienced a dilemma of the use of routes and schedules. Other victims included vessels that were scheduled to arrive at/pass through the Canal, shippers, consignees, ship operators, ship owners, and container terminals. About USD$15 to 17 billion has been held up. This paper aims to reveal the potential damage caused to parties involved and examine the liability of parties involved. Specifically, the impact and legal consequences of the obstruction such as how the scope of general average applies as well as the possible solutions to minimise damage are discussed, followed by future developments. These results suggested that maritime transport support global supply chain linkages and economic growth, any disruption could bring huge impact and costs on various stakeholders along the supply chain. On this basis, the world should learn a lesson from this incident and the need for thoroughness prevention measure should be considered.

According to analysis from Allianz, the number of 20-foot containers that ships can carry has increased by 1,500% over the past 50 years. One of the most significant size upgrades came when Maersk introduced its E-series in 2006, which can carry around 15,000 containers—doubling the capacity of the previous largest container ships. In the 15 years since then, some 133 ships have been launched with a carrying capacity of between 18,000 and 24,000 containers. These are classed as ultra large container vessels—the biggest boats The Ever Given may have grounded after its containers in the world.
