The operation to refloat and remove the Costa Concordia will be the biggest and costliest ever of its kind,
the cruise ship's operator said yesterday.
The project, due to get under way in the next few days, is set to cost £190m and will take up to a year
to complete, Costa Crociere said.
The operation starts more than four months after the liner struck rocks off the Italian island of Giglio and
turned on its side, leaving more than 30 people dead.
