Dear colleagues!
The ice situation in the waters of the Northern Sea Route this year is characterized by the early onset of ice formation due to the large amount of residual ice, especially in the eastern sector of the Arctic ( the Laptev Sea, the East Siberian Sea, the Chukchi Sea). For this reason, the end of summer-autumn navigation in areas 12-28 of the NSR water area will be due to earlier ship release dates from the NSR water area for the following types:
for vessels without an ice class, the sailing period is until 10/15/2024;
for all vessels with Ice1-Ice3 ice class, the sailing period is until 10/20/2024;
for vessels with bulbous and ice class Arc4-Arc5 until 10/31/2024.
The preliminary date of the start of the movement of the last caravan (according to ice classes) from the port of Pevek in an easterly direction:
- on October 10, a caravan of ships without an ice class to the eastern edge of the ice;
- on October 15, a caravan of ships with ice class Ice1-Ice3 to the eastern edge of the ice;
- on October 25, a caravan of ships with bulb m ice class Arc4-Arc5 to the eastern edge of the ice;
- on November 05, the withdrawal of a caravan of ships with the Arc4-Arc5 ice class to the eastern edge of the ice;
- on November 10, the departure from the port of Pevek in a westerly direction with the last caravan of vessels without bulba with ice class Arc4-Arc5 to the western edge of the ice.
