Yenisey River Shipping Company (ERSC, Krasnoyarsk) has projected building of new large barges in 2010, the shipping company press office reported citing the manager of cargo and commercial operations of ERSC Vladimir Klimenkov.
"We expect this year navigation to be at least on the same level as in 2009. Since there have been more demands of oil industry products, I believe that this navigation might be even better than the last year’s. We are planning to build lead ships of a new series - a 1.000-ton barge and 3.000-ton barge and a mostly needed 2.000-ton barge being under construction ", Mr. Klimenkov was quoted as saying.
The fleet build-up and repair project, the company said, is needed for participation in the major projects to be implemented in the region, such as the development of the Lower Angara area, the construction of Boguchansk HPP, development Yurubchen-Tokhomsk oilfield, commissioning of Vankor oilfield.
The Yenisey River Shipping Company has reportedly allocated for 2010 navigation over 375 million rubles for renovation of 485 ships of its fleet.
Yenisei River Shipping Company JSC completed the last year’s navigation in the second half of November. The report said the company ended up the year with 3.4 million tons of transshipped commodities. The shipping of Norilsk Nickel bulk cargo largely contributed to total volumes. Norilsk Nickel Group holds 43.92% shares in YRSC (51.91% of ordinary shares). Besides, the Federal Agency for Federal Property Management has 25.5% of shares (32.28%). In 9 months recent year the YRSC’ net profit (under RAS) totaled 517.91 million rubles, a year-over-year 20 percent gain.
