Icebreaker assistance for vessels will begin in the Arkhangelsk seaport on December 1, 2025. This decision was made based on the ice formation forecast and is aimed at ensuring safe navigation.

Icebreaker escorts will begin in the Arkhangelsk seaport waters on December 1, 2025. The corresponding order was signed by Port Captain Sergey Nesterov. Only vessels with an ice class of at least Ice 1 will be permitted to navigate independently. Vessels without an ice class and tug-and-barge convoys may navigate only under escort by icebreakers or tugboats with an ice class of Ice 1, and only to designated long-term anchorages.
