苏伊士运河因“长赐”号货轮搁浅被堵多日，货轮解困进展牵动全球目光。经过了长达一周的救援，当地时间3月29日搁浅货轮已经完全脱困，苏伊士运河恢复通航。
 
Salvage1 teams succeeded on Monday in freeing a massive container ship that had been stuck in the Suez canal for the past seven days, blocking billions of dollars' worth of cargo2 from crossing one of the world’s busiest marine3 waterways.
当地时间3月29日，救援队成功让搁浅在苏伊士运河长达一周的巨型货轮脱困。过去7天这艘搁浅货轮阻止了价值数十亿美元的货物通过苏伊士运河。苏伊士运河是世界上最繁忙的海运通道之一。
 
"We pulled it off!" said Peter Berdowski, the chief executive of the Dutch salvaging4 firm Boskalis, which was hired to assist in the process. I am excited to announce that our team of experts, working in close collaboration5 with the Suez Canal Authority, successfully refloated the Ever Given on 29 March at 15.05 local time, thereby6 making free passage through the Suez canal possible again."
受雇参与救援的荷兰宝斯卡利斯公司的总监皮特·伯尔道斯基说：“我们做到了！我激动地宣布，我们的专家队通过与苏伊士运河管理方密切合作，于当地时间3月29日15点05分成功让‘长赐’号重新漂浮，从而让苏伊士运河恢复通航。”
 
He said 30,000 cubic metres of sand had been dredged to help free the vessel7, which had been pulled free using 13 tugboats.
他表示，为了让货轮脱困，挖掘机挖走了3万立方米的泥沙，并动用了13艘拖船。
 
A full moon on Sunday gave the salvager8 an especially promising9 24-hour window to work in, with a few extra inches of tidal flow providing a vital assist.
上周日恰逢满月，让救援队获得了24小时的绝佳窗口期，涨潮时水位比平时升高了几英寸，提供了至关重要的助推力。
 
Then, just before dawn, the ship slowly regained10 buoyancy.
在即将破晓时，货轮慢慢地浮了起来。
 
Even with the vessel released, it could be several days before other ships can sail through the canal, said a Greek sea captain whose oil tanker11 is stuck behind the Ever Given. "According to the canal’s rules they have to remove it."
被困在现场的一艘希腊油轮的船长表示，就算“长赐”号脱困，也要几天以后才能让其他船只通过苏伊士运河。根据运河管理方的规定，他们需要先把被困的那艘货轮挪走。
