Maersk, the worlds largest shipping company, says the Suez Canal blockage's economic fallout will continue into second half of May

    Fallout from the Ever Given's time lodged in the Suez Canal will “ripple” through the economy for the next few weeks or months, according to Maersk, the world's biggest shipping company.

    “We will see ripple effects continuing into the second half of May,” Lars Mikael Jensen, head of Maersk's Global Ocean Network, told The Financial Times.

    The Ever Given, which is among the world”s largest container ships, was lodged in the canal for six days, effectively closing one of the world”s most important trade routes.

    The Ever Given was operated by the  Taiwan- based shipping company Evergreen Group. The ship was freed on March 29.

    Maersk predicted knock-on effects from the blockage. In an updated press advisory posted on Thursday, the company said it was pleased to see that the queue waiting at the canal was rapidly diminishing.

    “For each day that passes we are getting a clearer picture of what this incident means for our customers,” the company said.

    Maersk said about 50 ships had been delayed for about a week because of the blockage. Some of those ships waited on either end of the canal, while others were redirected around the Cape of Good Hope.

    The effects of those delays will be felt in ports around the world, the company said. Its advisory warned that delays may vary by location. Busy ports and terminals may not have berths for ships arriving outside their originally scheduled windows. The company previously said shipping backlog may take months to unravel.

    “Even when the canal gets reopened, the ripple effects on global capacity and equipment are significant and the blockage has already triggered a series of further disruptions and backlog in global shipping that could take weeks, possibly months, to unravel,” Maersk said in a statement back when the Ever Given was still lodged in the canal.

What the Ever Given can tell us about mental health at sea

Captain Lee Clarke from Tapiit Live on one of the overlooked aspects stemming from last month's Suez blockage.

 

    Thirty days ago, a ship named Ever Given was sailing in relative anonymity. Twenty-nine days ago, that same ship found itself splashed across the front cover of every national newspaper from London to Lima.

    In a matter of hours, the ship and its 25 strong crew went from highly skilled seafarers to media targets. In the maelstrom of social media memes, newspaper cover stories and “special reports”, one major thing was forgotten, more likely ignored: the crew”s mental well-being.

    In a world of social media, everyone is an expert, and never has that been felt more in the maritime industry than now. A frenzy of blame erupted almost instantly with little or no merit or fact-checking, as evidenced by the naming of a female officer as the Ever Given's Captain, regardless of the fact she was over 200 miles away on another vessel.

    Being a seafarer is a stressful job, irrespective of a global incident, especially when you factor in being away from family for extended periods and working contract to contract with little job security. You also have to cope with fatigue, extreme weather conditions and intense time pressure placed upon the crew and its Master by multiple state and global agencies as well as the ship's own charter. So, add to that taking the “blame” for halting $9.6 billion of trade a day, understandably, stress levels rise astronomically.

    As an industry, mental health appears still to be very much a taboo topic. Seafarers are more likely to be signed off and dismissed for being deemed “unfit to serve” than they are to recerve any form of support. Whilst onboard, the mood will feel somewhat supportive with the crew banding together to keep the ship operating, internally, each and every seafarer, from deckhand to Master will be wortying about their reputation and thus, their employability.

    I- _________ my experience as a Captain, your crew is your first lne II- _________ defence III- _________ any major incident. As soon as something goes awry, they burst IV- _________ action, theyre trained to do so, it's instinctive. I have no doubt, everyone aboard the Ever Given did everything V- _________ their power to protect that ship and avoid a major incident, but some things are VI- _________ your control. In reality, they will never be praised for saving the ship, only criticised for grounding it.

    This crew is acutely aware of the issues the incident has caused and they are reminded of it every time they open their phone or computer to read the news or speak to their families, and I feel for every single one of them.

    They're now stuck in an Egyptian lake, further away from their families, without the ability to defend themselves with the threat of civil and criminal charges looming. This downward spiral will undoubtedly be taking its toll on their mental health and in the past, there hasn't been much of a support system in place to help.

    Based on my experience offshore, working for a company that provides mental well-being training, and from all of the feedback, Tapiit has gamered from its live-streamed mental health awareness courses, seafarers want and need this support. Yet, there's a deep-rooted fear that admitting they“re struggling and asking for help will be the end of their careers.

    Of course, the conversation has advanced significantly, however, it's still not where it should be. The harsh reality is, the Ever Given and its crew will be forgotten about in a month or two”s time, but this crew is hurting and will continue to struggle with the mental health issues caused by the Incident for years to come.
