RN-Vankor (part of the Rosneft oil and gas production complex) has begun delivering cargo via the Northern Sea Route and winter roads to the Vankor and Payakha clusters, which are located in the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Almost 1 million tonnes of cargo are expected to be transported this season.
Six sea vessels are involved in the deliveries via the Northern Sea Route during the winter navigation period. Two icebreakers provide icebreaking services. The main logistics hubs for receiving and unloading ships are the Taimyr production bases, the Bukhta Sever port terminals, and the Vorontsovo and Karaul ice berths.
The range of goods delivered includes metal structures, pipes, cables, reinforced concrete products, building materials, technological equipment, specialised machinery, and motor vehicles. These resources are essential for constructing and operating oil production and hydrocarbon transportation facilities.
Cargo is transported over land via winter roads and ice crossings over rivers, totalling over 2,000 km in length. Laying winter roads involves more than a thousand specialists and around 460 pieces of equipment. These motor routes connect the main production facilities in the Taimyr, Dolgan-Nenets and Turukhansk districts of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, as well as those in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District. These routes are used to transport cargo that arrived at material and technical resource bases during the summer navigation period to oil production facilities via winter roads, as well as cargo transported year-round via the Northern Sea Route. Over 2,000 pieces of freight equipment are involved in winter road operations, which will transport over 800,000 tonnes of materials and resources this year.
Winter roads serve both business and social purposes. They are a vital transport route for the indigenous people of Taimyr, enabling nomadic reindeer herders to maintain their traditional way of life. They also provide tundra settlements with food and essential supplies.
