Maersk says it's not over yet

The world's largest shipping company said it had about 45 ships that got delayed and that it will take a week before just over half of them can get through the canal due to the traffic jam that was caused. As a result, they already routed 15 around Africa. Maersk says we have not even started seeing the problems the EverGiven caused, and that it will take months for everything to stabilize.

Is somebody blocking Syrian oil?

Good grief. The giant ship has been freed at last.

I am a little puzzled, though. Is the ship's name "Ever Given" or "Evergreen"?

 Is the ship's name "Ever Given" or "Evergreen"?

The ship's name is Ever Given. Evergreen is the name of the company that operates the ship. Apparently a number of ships operated by Evergreen have names that start with Ever.

The massive container ship, the MV Ever Given, is owned by Shoei Kisen Co. based at Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan. But the ship is Panama-flagged and leased to Taiwan's Evergreen. So, the indemnity issue is expected to be very complex.
