Troubled Maersk vessel risks

blocking the Suez Canal



Emma Maersk, one of the world's largest container ships, faced yesterday 2nd
February 2013 mechanical problems at the northern entrance of the Suez Canal
after water leaked inside its engines room, putting the ship at the risk of
drowning.

The 397-meter long vessel is owned by Denmark's Maersk Line, the world's
largest container shipping company.

Suez Canal tugboats shifted the vessel towards the Mediterranean to avoid
blocking the waterway should the ship sink.

The ship berthed at the Suez Canal Container Terminal (SCCT) at 0030 hrs on
2nd February 2013 for lighting up.

"The situation is under control and it was handled swiftly to avoid
complications," according to the Canal Authority.

All canal convoys have not been affected by the above incident.



Please be guided accordingly.
