Negotiations on the use of the Finnish icebreakers in the territorial waters of Russia are almost completed. After the corresponding state contract is signed, the Finnish icebreakers will be able to brake a way to St. Petersburg as well as to operate in arctic regions. For the first time, the Russian representatives involved the Finnish specialists in 2011, which was marked by severe winter resulted in that many ships got stuck in the ice in the territorial waters of Russia. Since then, they negotiate on the state contract allowing the Finnish icebreakers to break the ice in the territorial waters of Russia, and the Russian icebreakers to assist ships in the territorial waters of Finland.

In the port of Novorossiysk, Ro-Ro terminal was put into operation. It is a joint project of the Delo Group and Rolf SCS. In 2013, the stevedoring department, DELOPORTS, completed the project on increasing the capacity of the grain terminal of KSK Company up to 3.5 million tons. On completing the land use operations, in August this year a car handling terminal was put into operation at the KSK territory. For this purpose, a specialised Ro-Ro facility and storage platform capable of accomofating 1565 cars were built. The annual handling capacity of the new Ro-Ro terminal exceeds 50 000 cars.
Gazprom is going to order twelve new arctic tankers before 2020. The Deputy Chairman of the Board of the Company Valery Golubev said it at the RAO/CIS Offshore 2013 forum.
