The Global and famous shipping company "Evergreen" has resumed transiting the Suez Canal after a hiatus of more than three years. This return follows a period during which many other companies ceased using the Red Sea route—even though another Taiwanese firm, Wan Hai, had previously continued its transits through the area without any issues. According to data from the Suez Canal Authority, the container ship "Ever Eon" has become the first vessel from the "Evergreen" fleet to transit the canal in three years. Previously, the company’s ships had been using the route around the Cape of Good Hope—a journey that took over 14 days longer, consumed more fuel, incurred higher operating costs, and resulted in greater carbon emissions, which negatively impact the climate. By transiting the Suez Canal, these drawbacks are now eliminated. The container ship is currently en route from Rotterdam back to East Asia; its outbound voyage—from Singapore to Rotterdam—had taken the route around the Cape of Good Hope, as shown on the map. Ever Aeon" is an Ultra-Large Container Vessel (ULCV) with a capacity of 16,500 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU), operating on the primary trade route between Asia and Northern Europe. Evergreen’s giant vessels are now set to begin transiting the Suez Canal; the next ship expected to pass through is the "Ever Edit," which has a capacity of 16,556 TEU. Evergreen has thus shifted its route from the Cape of Good Hope to the Suez Canal. The company also operates 14 other vessels vessels with a capacity of 24,000 TEU each, like ( Ever Act, Ever Ace, Ever Aim, Ever Alp, Ever Arm, Ever Art, Ever Aria, Ever Apex, Ever Atop, Ever Acme, Ever Aeon, Ever Ally, and the Ever Eon that is currently passing through red sea. All such mega ships cannot sail via the Easter North Sea Passage known as NSR. due to the large draft, and the severe risk it may encounter passing through the passage. — Ibrahim Gad/Gadco Egypt, Nov. 10, 2026.
