no 3rd Industry Seminar: Sea-Ice & Operational Conditions for Ships

1 Russian Icebreaking, Ice-Pilotage & Hydro- Meteorological Services on the NSR Dr. Bjørn Gunnarsson, Managing Director 3rd Industry Seminar: Sea-Ice & Operational Conditions for Ships on the NSR DNV GL Korea, Haeundae I-Park, Busan, South-Korea, Monday May 30, 2016

2 Russian Icebreaking Services Safe and reliable year-round maritime transportation of hydrocarbons from Arctic offshore and coastal sources is not possible without support of a fleet of powerful high ice-class icebreakers Russia by investing in the construction of new icebreakers is making a significant contribution to the protection of its national interests and influence in the Arctic region

8 Russia s New-Generation Diesel Icebreakers Diesel Icebreaker Project (LK-25): The Baltic Shipyard is constructing the world s biggest and most powerful diesel-engine icebreaker, the 25 MW Viktor Chernomyrdin for the state company Rosmorport designed for operations in Arctic waters. The icebreaker will be 146,8 meters long with deadweight of tons and will be able to break ice up to 2 meters thick. It will have a crew of 38 World s most powerful diesel-engine icebreaker Project (LK-25) Source:

Russia s New-Generation Diesel Icebreakers Diesel Icebreakers of Project 21900: Three diesel-engine icebreakers have been under construction at the Vyborg Yard (in cooperation with

8 m long and 27.5 m wide with max. icebreaking capacity is 1.5 m. Total power of four diesel generators is 27 MW.

9 Russia s New-Generation Diesel Icebreakers Diesel Icebreakers of Project 21900: Three diesel-engine icebreakers have been under construction at the Vyborg Yard (in cooperation with Arctech Helsinki Shipyard) and for Rosmorport of the Russian Ministry of Transport. They have been named Vladivostok, Murmansk and Novorossiysk. The icebreakers are m long and 27.5 m wide with max. icebreaking capacity is 1.5 m. Total power of four diesel generators is 27 MW. Propulsion power is about 16 MW consisting of two full-circle azimuth thrusters The multi-purpose icebreakers will be used for escort of large-tonnage cargo ships, for towing, fire fighting on floating objects, rescue missions and salvage, and for cargo transportation

5 m and able to break ice up to 1.5 m thick.

10 New Icebreakers for Arctic Port Operations Diesel-Engine Icebreaker to Atomflot for Sabetta Port: Vyborg Shipyard is to construct a 10 MW icebreaker to accompany tankers to and from the Sabetta Port; part of Rosatom s agreement with the Yamal LNG. The vessel will be 84 m long with water draft of 6.5 m and able to break ice up to 1.5 m thick. Ready for operations in 2018 Diesel-Engine Icebreaker to Gazprom Neft for Novy Port: Gazprom Neft has ordered two 22 MW icebreakers to be constructred at the Vyborg Shipyard for operations in the Ob Bay for the Novy Port project. The vessels are of ice class Icebreaker8 and break ice up to 2 m thick Source: vyborgshipyard.ru

16 Russian Ice Pilots (Ice Navigators)

17 The Services of Russia s Ice Pilots Russian organizations authorized to provide ice pilot services on the NSR: FSUE Atomflot OOO Ice Pilots Autonomous Nonprofit Org. Guild of Polar Pilots FSUE Rosmorport Arkhangelsk Branch FSUE Rosmorport Murmansk Branch Fee for the ice pilot assistance is based on the vessel s GRT, ice class, the distance of the escorting and the period of navigation Minimum requirement of an ice pilot is 3 years or more as ship master or chief mate on seagoing vessel of 3000 tons or more. At least 6 months of navigational experience in sea ice conditions

18 The Services of Russia s Ice Pilots Ice pilot gives the shipmaster recommendations regarding: Assessment of the sea ice conditions and possibility of safe navigation Selection of optimum sailing route Selection of speed and maneuvering of ship to avoid dangerous interaction of the hull and rudder propeller system with ice Safe speed and distance to icebreaker or ship ahead when moving in convoy Execution of instructions of the master of the icebreaker assisting the vessel

19 The Services of Russia s Ice Pilots Ice pilots receive from shipmaster information on structural and operational features of the vessel and current state of navigational instruments, engine installations, steering, thruster, anchor and other arrangements ensuring the ship s movement and maneuvering control Polar Code: New Safety Requirements Polar Code: Polar Ship Certificate Polar Code: Polar Water Operational Manual
