go back to the 400 metre long container ship the ever given has wedged itself between the eastern and western banks blocking the canal completely the ship's owner evergreen says a 50 kilometer an hour gust of wind shoved the ship into the canal was bow and stern 420-0000 ton vessel is believed to have partially run aground now much smaller tug boats are trying to heave it free. so it's going to be very difficult to to pull her off maybe very careful owner off because again they've got all that weight in the center of the vessel and she's not borne it right now because she's hung up on the edge on the edge so she has a sagging motion to right now so be very careful about cracking the vessel in a catastrophic loss of the bessel which is the worst case scenario satellite pictures show you the ship's location marked here in blue you can see the top boats around it the consequence of the blockage an extraordinary traffic jam a giant freighter this according to bloomberg more than 100 ships are waiting to

get passed in either direction egyptian officials are hopeful that the f.a. given can be freed and sent on its way but they're predicting that it will take at least a couple of days. and more this i'm joined by lars greiner he's associate partner at homburg port consulting lars good to have you on the show what does this mean for global trade paths when the suez canal one of the most important there always is blocked. it it's a dire circumstance and the alternative this route around the whole good hope and that's just going to add you know tent $20.00 to $30.00 days when you add on the transit that means all the goods on the way on the way radio going already impacted will be delayed really it's it it's like blocking off an artery it's going to give us a mild heart attack. if you're one of the ships that's blocked and it's waiting there what's going through your mind right now. you know unfortunate is not really much choice at the moment you know that it's at the it's a case of right now opening and praying that they can find

a solution i know those who is for authorities are desperately trying to find a solution they're moving the what missiles they can around to be positioned so that they can have so that they can force a source through quickly once the things are resolved but realistically there's no quick quick fix here if the ship can be can be freed up and moved moved around we can then get good good flowing again the only real long realistic long term solution if the if this does turn to something long term really is to go around the cape and again that's going to add a significant delay to the to the good flowing. so it's right now it's really much a wait and see and hope that being said you know i think that i think everyone is doing everything they can at the moment looking at what's being done. the next thing i would be looking for is to see if they start like during the missile to start taking cargo off to make a list critically stable more buoyant and just to allow the tugs 2 to really do
