Russia's northern regions continue to lobby the Belkomur project, the Northern Latitudinal Railway and other ambitious projects for creation of a single Arctic Transportation Corridor. Sabetta is also supposed to be included in the agenda as a dry cargo port with an annual throughput of 70 million tonnes.
Russia is preparing for the coming winter navigation. Rosmorrechflot has already approved the dislocation of icebreakers for winter navigation of 2013-14.
Murmansk Region was looking to implementation of Shtokman project when Rosneft, instead of Gazprom, showed interest in the possibilities of Murmansk port. On the margins of the III International Forum “Arctic: present and future” Murmansk Region Governor Marina Kovtun tells IAA PortNews about the partnership with Rosneft.
Russia never stops discussing the ways for the development of domestic shipbuilding. There are certain doubts about the necessity to build new shipyards or ability to compete with South Korea and China as well as about powers which should be delegated to vertically integrated oil companies (VIOCs). The report of the Expert Board of the Governmental Military-Industrial Commission’s Chairman contains recommendations different from those set forth by the officials or United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC).
Being an exclave, the Kaliningrad region is one of Russia’s most sensitive districts in terms of transport. Lithuanian Government has recently threatened with blocking of that western region. Denis Moskalev, head of Kaliningrad Center for Corporate Transport Services of Russian Railways OJSC, tells IAA PortNews about the situation with cargo transportation in the region.
Having taken the post of Rosneft President, Igor Sechin, an influential ex-Deputy Chairman of RF Government, initiated a thrust at adjacent markets: stevedoring, bunkering and shipbuilding.
Russia renovates the fleet of icebreakers with parallel abolishment of obligatory icebreaking dues. The maintenance of nuclear icebreakers is supposed to be made up with new technologies improving their commercial efficiency and increased number of Arctic voyages.
Marine and river fleet requires permanent additional training and retraining of personnel. Admiral Makarov State Maritime Academy (SMA) and St.-Petersburg State University of Waterway Communications (SPSUWC), integrated into a single institution, have always been the leaders in this process. Aleksandr Yalovenko, Director of APE Center at Admiral Makarov State University of Maritime and Inland Shipping, tells IAA PortNews about this work today.
