In our port, pilots are in charge of berthing/unberthing, but if anything goes amiss, they are not responsible. I find this extremely unfair for the vessels, as pilotage is compulsory.

It's more like a monopoly, the Egyptian government is more like the mafia. The seizure of a ship & demanding $ for a situation their own employees are at fault for is completely criminal. It's also totally backwards The Suez canal authority should be having to pay the ships owners for all the lost revenue from that vessel.. rather than the owners of the vessel having to pay the canal authority for the costs associated with recovering the ship. If the ships captain was at fault, then yes.. but the captain has to cede control of the ship over to the canal authorities chosen pilots.

I'd say it would be much improved had the Brits been allowed to keep watch for a while longer... Instead the empires that constructed the golden egg laying goose basically gave it to a criminal regime in hopes of buying their loyalty in future geopolitical world building... I guess it kind of had that outcome in some regard, but mostly not 🤦‍♂️ I definitely don't agree with imperialism (Russia trying to take over Ukraine for instance) but sometimes letting other countries control infrastructure just works better... In such countries they usually just want money anyway, not the concept of keeping the global trade constantly improving, or power plants that are cleaner, more efficient, and safe. Road or rail that improves domestic and international delivery and quality of life... But on the flip side you end up with a CCP/Africa situation where they are basically getting scammed out of generational wealth sized resources for a promise of some half ass built infrastructure and plenty of cash payouts... Then again the resources were not likely to be domestically controlled and sold for atleast another century or more... 🤷‍♂️ It would just be interesting to see what an alternate history Suez Canal would look like in 2023 had it stayed under American or European control 🤔 I'm guessing it would be substantially enhanced and modernized over time... Or blown up in some terrorist attack or civil war... 😆 We really need to get those alternate reality time hopping machines working, so many questions to answer and curiosities to explore! 😂👍

@waterlinestories

Its a lot more complicated than that. When you ship something on a container ship, the law says you own a % of the ship which mean you are liable for any costs arising. One of the considerations was that companies like Lenovo, Nike and Ikea would have to pay the costs of clearing the blockage and any damages. Of course they have their own marine shipping insurance to cover those kinds of things. But their insurers will be underwritten by a larger insurer who will be underwritten by an even larger one and so the largest one or three end up with a large bill from all the smaller ones down stream.

No way you can just dump some containers (10,000 tons worth) into a lake, that would instantly become an environmental and marine traffic hazard, not to mention lawsuits from the owners of the cargo. But that big of a crane would've taken a week to arrive and they got the ship free before any of that.

Did it have bow thrusters? Just wondered

@tomhutchins7495

Жыл бұрын

Yes, but because the bow was impaled in the shore they wouldn't do much. The stern thrusters would have also been unable to shift the ship once aground, which is why it being sideways across the channel was such an issue. Thrusters are really just aids to manoeuvring, helping ships gently against docks and so on, and even a small tug has far more power than they do.

So let me get this straight: 1) Any ship passing the Suez canal must be PILOTED by the Suez canal authority team (which the shipping company pays a large of money) 2) These Suez canal pilots are in charge of the piloting of the ship when the ship is moved through the canal 3) These Suez canal pilots break their own speed limit rule from 8 mph to 30 (!) mph and still seek damages from the shipping company? Shouldn't the shipping company be asking for reimbursement from the Suez Canal Authority who were piloting the at the time of the accident

To make 15 X 1 minute videos would take us about 2 weeks maybe a little longer. We might actually get more views but that doesn't translate into ad revenue. As much as I'd love to produce videos with no financial incentive the reality is that they cost a fair amount to produce. If anything odd like to spend more and make better videos but shorts takes more time, costs more per minute of production and makes significantly less money which just doesn't make it viable at the moment. From what I can gather from larger channels use that shorts actually hurts their long form content too. For now I'm just going to concentrate on making the best videos I can in this format until I can grow enough to take a look at it again. Thanks for your encouragement.

To a layman it is the job of the pilots to plot the correct cause if there is a failure, then that is down to them unless there are exceptional circumstances but these two pilots were arguing with themselves, and with the captain, another point, one of the containers was due for a small British business and because of a huge amount of compensation that had to be paid. He had to pay increase fees for the shipment of his container even though he was not to blame in anyway.

Anyone who has worked in the Middle East will know that the locals react like this.

Pilots are supposed to be independent of any employer and are immediately answerable to the Captain of the ship, who in theory is paying the pilot and therefore his direct employer. The Captain delegates the navigational conduct of the vessel to the pilot, or pilots in this case. It's the Captain's responsibility is to ensure that the ship and crew are fit enough to conform with the pilot's advice regarding the navigation of the vessel. If the Captain thinks that that it's too dangerous for a certain manoeuvre or if the ship has any deficiency to its machinery, equipment or crew he must inform the pilot. He must also inform the pilot of the limitations of the ship and its machinery, equipment and crew. The pilots must ensure that the Captain understands the nature of the intended passage, what restrictions exist and what and why they have planned; they also communicate with the shore control, tugs and other vessels in the vicinity in the local language, such communications must be relayed to the Captain to give a full understanding of the passage. The Captain can intervene at any time if he thinks the pilot is doing something, not planned without good reason, that the ship can't do or to minimise the damage that may be caused by the action or inaction of a pilot, or any other suitable reason. It's a complicated arrangement but has worked well for hundreds of years.

Nothing on land is big enough to pull a ship that size, at least nothing that is sent (shipped...) there and assembled within a month... Perhaps a modified crane from the petroleum industry, but modifying it, loading it onto a ship, sailing it to Egypt, loading it onto trucks, driving to the location and assembling the thing would take a few months. Creating an anchor on shore that is large enough to pull a ship of that size would also be a few days if not weeks of digging, then pouring concrete and waiting a month for the concrete to harden... A salvage vessel like the large two that were used is specifically made for this.
