“Carriers collectively pushed up rates for April voyages and booking prices rose sharply,” said the NCFI …

HMM Nuri slated to transit Suez Canal on maiden voyage

The HMM Nuri, a newbuild with a carrying capacity of 16,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), is making its maiden voyage — a trip that includes two Suez Canal transits.

Although the 20,000-TEU Ever Given was freed from the Suez Canal on Monday, the backlog of ships waiting to transit will take time to clear. More than 320 vessels were reportedly at anchor waiting for the Ever Given, which had been stuck sideways since March 23, to be moved so they could make their way through the 119-mile...

Suez salvage operators consider removing cargo to lighten distressed vessel

Tug boats try to move a big green container ship stuck in the mud.

Efforts continued Sunday to dislodge a massive container ship that ran aground in the Suez Canal during a windstorm six days ago and is blocking hundreds of cargo vessels, but there is no immediate end in sight to the shipping crisis as the ripple effects pile up.

Two more large tug boats joined the operation to refloat the 20,000-TEU Ever Given, and there are reports that the vessel was moved about 95 feet so far with the help of dredging vessels and onshore diggers.  The next refloating effort...
