What Happens To Shipping Containers Lost At Sea?

  • Gold at sea, Is it a treasure that anyone can look for? Container Ship storm. Lost at sea. Even though there are hundreds of millions of shipping containers that travel the world's oceans each year, not all of them are able to arrive safely at their final destination. Perhaps this explains the loss of hundreds or perhaps thousands of cargo containers at sea. But then we are left with the question “What happens to the shipping containers lost at sea?”
    Cargo inside lost containers can continue washing up on coasts years after the initial occurrence. Huge waves collided with a ship that was transporting containers of Lego in 1997; to this day, hundreds of Lego bricks can be discovered washed up on the shores of Cornwall, England.
    It would surprise you to know that it is against the law to take any items that are found washed up on the beach especially when they are cargo from containers that have fallen into the sea in time past. If cargo from shipping containers that washed overboard is located, it needs to be reported since the contents still belong to the shipper or, if a claim was filed and resolved, the insurance.
    Containers that are lost at sea pose a threat to shipping and other aspects of ocean life. In many instances, containers are used to store chemicals or other potentially hazardous commodities, which can severely affect the surrounding environment. Containers may contain a variety of things in addition to chemicals that are worrisome from an environmental point of view.
    According to the World Shipping Council (WSC) report, an annual average of 1,382 shipping containers went missing while being transported by sea between 2018 and 2019. A second rise occurred between November 2020 and April 2021, when it was estimated that roughly 3,000 containers were lost in the North Pacific due to five distinct incidences, that's equivalent to having double the annual average. So, what exactly is going on here?
    Various factors might lead to containers being lost overboard from ships. Before the losses that occurred in 2020/21, the World Shipping Council published a report examining the issue's full breadth. There was not a single factor that caused the incidents, but rather that there may have been multiple causes. This includes things like inclement weather, the architecture of the ship, challenges with the propulsion, and how containers are lashed together. The deterioration of containers that causes metal fatigue is also a potential factor to consider.

    Would you go looking for treasure at sea or on the beach? It's bizarre if you would find anything, but it can be done! 😱😂

      Only for glass fishing floats. Some are placed on local beaches just to be found by searchers.

      They are more worried about the things they are trying to conceal from the public...body parts from certain humans that were in those containers.
      And historical things and remains of fossils and such.

      Won’t ever happen lol the US corporations would never pay the American people what they deserve and the American people will not take less than min wage. That’s why they’ll go to countries with weaker currencies and pay them it’s cheaper for them

      Then the corporations that keep this country afloat would go under tank the markets and issue in another depression. Which should happen because of the fragility of the world economy but politicians wouldn’t be able to keep their jobs. People would rather keep their jobs and pay rather than adjusting to a new reality. Even at their own long term detriment

      @@FDerron Very well put, FDerron. I tell folks all the time that this is how America stays on top. Not by it's military, but spreading his dollar bill. It's the language everyone speaks, except China and Russia who are poised to take over once this divided country is more vulnerable( tRUMP). They've been commercing with each other for a decade in theirv own currency while phasing out the dollar bill. I truly think it is Chinese and Russians posing online as tRUMPERS and republicans to keep the seed of hatred growing and distrust of our own government. I mean, we can't be that f00lish on our own, to let a conman, Putin puppet/lover, who turned the Presidency into a Game Show, lie fest, conspiracy fest, to run for president again, can we?.................Too late. We're doomed.

    English channel is the busiest shipping.lane in the world we regularly get containers in the sea and washing up on the south coast of England. We have over 500/1000 ships a day going through the region between UK and Europe.

    2:40 you're missing the most important factor of them all, greedy bosses threatening workers and not securing containers or overloading ships. They're well aware of the risk of containers going overboard. They don't care or are too stupid. They should be thrown in prison. Proportional to how much I would be fined for littering the sea with something small. Measure it by weight

    To answer the question some poor boat owner hits a container that was not properly loaded nor properly secured and everyone on the boat is killed. That's what happens to a container lost at sea.

    You know, if shipping container, companies are not going to be responsible for the retrieval of their containers for any damage caused by them to other vessels at sea. Maybe we should limit them to half the load that they are carrying now.

    The shipping disasters are cause by how the ship's hull is designed. The V shape Hull design is the number one factor of shipping disasters. If the ship were built wider like Noah' ark you would have less shipping tilting on its side in heavy seas. The new type of ship design is Dual hull or tri-hull designs.
