Yes.

It's been like this for 5 days, 1 hour and 2 minutes.
It has cost us $47 billion, so far...

Japan's Shoei Kisen Kaisha Ltd among those listed as the ship's owner, declined to comment. About 42 vessels either in the northbound convoy or arriving to transit the canal in that direction were waiting for the Ever Given to be re-floated, Leth Agencies, one of the top providers of Suez Canal crossing services, said in a notice to clients.

Higaki also said the company had considered removing some of the thousands of containers from the vessel but realized this would be a complex operation that could take days. He said it remained an option if all other efforts fail.

Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM), the ship’s technical manager, said on Friday that an attempt to refloat the vessel had failed despite crews used a specialized suction dredger, which can shift 70,000 cubic feet of material every hour, the BBC reported.

The White House also offered to send help to the Suez Canal on Friday, including a team of US Navy experts.

“We’re tracking the situation very closely,” Psaki told reporters during a press conference. “We understand that Egyptian officials are working to remove the tanker as soon as possible and continue traffic.”

Meanwhile, the number of other vessels waiting to pass through the Suez Canal was “growing exponentially,” warned Joe Reynolds, the chief engineer of the 2006 container ship, Maersk Ohio, according to the BBC.

The blockage has caused a huge traffic jam of more than 200 ships in the Red Sea.

The Japanese owner of a large container ship that has been stuck sideways in Egypt's Suez Canal apologized for the incident on Friday.

"We sincerely apologize for causing great concern," said Yukito Higaki, president of Shoei Kisen Kaisha Ltd., which owns the stranded 220,000-ton Ever Given.
