UNIQUE PARALLEL UNLOADING OF VESSELS CARRIED OUT ON THE YENISSEI RIVER

Specialists of GlavSevmorput, together with FSUE Atomflot and shipowners, carried out an exceptional operation for the parallel unloading of vessels on the ice fast ice of the Yenisei River near Cape Tanalau. Cape Tanalau is a cape located on the right bank of the Yenissei river in Krasnoyarsk territory. The scheme of icebreaking assistance was developed and a safe approach of vessels to the place of unloading was ensured. Icebreaker assistance was provided by 2 nuclear-powered icebreakers Ural and Taimyr, as well as a diesel-powered icebreaker Admiral Makarov.
The uniqueness of the operation lies in the fact that in order to place the vessels for unloading on fast ice, it is necessary to prepare the ice platform in advance, by means of special cuts. Putting a ship on fast ice requires the filigree skill of the crews of the ships, since any wrong movement can lead to irreversible consequences.
As part of this operation, more than 4.5 thousand tons of cargo (caterpillar vehicles, car-houses, supports and pipes for the construction of the main oil pipeline) were unloaded from the ships Utrenny (2,800 tons of cargo) and Grigory Shelikhov (1,800 tons of cargo ). These cargoes are necessary for the construction of the main oil pipeline connecting the fields with the port of Sever Bay for the subsequent export of oil along the waters of the Northern Sea Route.
In the future, 16 new berths built on the Yenisei will be used to ensure uninterrupted support of the Vostok Oil large-scale project. In total, as part of the winter navigation along the Northern Sea Route, it is planned to bring over 300,000 tons of materials and equipment for the construction of Vostok Oil project facilities.
Vostok Oil includes oil and gas fields of the Vankor cluster (Vankorskoye, Suzunskoye, Lodochnoye, Tagulskoye, Ichemminskoye), Payakhskoye oil field, and West-Irkinsky site. The total inferred reserves of these fields are estimated at 2.6 billion tons of oil. According to project plans, all of them are set to produce up to 100 million tons of oil per year.
