DANISH shipping giant, Maersk Line, has announced that it has re-floated the 9,074-TEU Grete Maersk that was grounded near Vung Tau port in Vietnam on May 13, reported Vietnam's Thanhnien News.


The Grete Maersk, now sailing to Shenzhen-Yantian, China, was stranded "as a result of modifying its course to avoid a potential collision with another vessel in the ship channel" on May 10 while on the way from Tanjung Pelepas, Malaysia to Vung Tau, a port outside Ho Chi Minh City.
