俄气用第二艘破冰船Andrey Vilkitsky加强其北极舰队

中国石化新闻网讯 据世界石油莫斯科12月24日消息,作为俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司(Gazprom Neft)“北极时代”项目的一部分,Andrey Vilkitsky破冰船已在圣彼得堡启动,Alexander Sannikov破冰船和六艘油轮已经投入运营。 这些先进的破冰船是为俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司在Ob湾(喀拉海的一部分)的Novoportovskoye油田北极终端附近作业而建造的,以确保该油田全年向全球市场供应石油。它们被设计用于执行作业活动,包括破冰船支持、系泊和装载作业、拖船、消防、溢油反应和救生作业。 这艘破冰船是以俄罗斯著名的地理学家、测量员和极地探险家安德烈·维尔基茨基的名字命名的。该船是在维堡船厂设计和建造的,在北极的淡水系统中运行,一年中有200天覆盖了2至2.5米的冰层。像Alexander Sannikov和Andrey Vilkitsky这样的破冰船对确保极地圈不间断的石油供应至关重要,它们可以开凿水道,让油轮安全无阻地通过水道,驶向北极门终端。 Andrey Vilkitsky独特的船体使其能够穿透并粉碎冰块,而不是像其他核破冰船那样简单地粉碎冰块,而其吃水浅和机动性确保了船舶的效率。Andrey Vilkitsky在开阔水域,可以加速到16节(每小时30公里),能在一分钟内完成一个整圈,推进力量22兆瓦,显示出与功率大得多的核破冰船相当的破冰能力。 破冰船于2017年下水,然后进行技术装备和完工。在成功通过系泊和运行测试以及冰试验之后,它现在准备被派往位于Ob海湾的新基地——北极门终端。 俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司的董事长Alexander Dyukov评论说:“这是第二个确保从Novoportovskoye油田不间断运输石油的高科技破冰船,将有助于提高我们在Ob海湾水域工作的效率。诺维港是该公司发展最快的资产之一。该领域的产量同比增长超过40%。物流在这里起着至关重要的作用,无论天气如何,都可以继续通过喀拉海运输和运输石油。因此,建造这些破冰船是进一步有效发展诺维港的必要前提。” 陈菲 摘译自 世界石油 原文如下: Gazprom Neft strengthens its own Arctic fleet with a second icebreaker, the Andrey Vilkitsky The Andrey Vilkitsky icebreaker, built as part of Gazprom Neft’s “Time of the Arctic” program, has been launched in St. Petersburg — the Alexander Sannikov icebreaker and six oil tankers having already been brought into operation. These cutting-edge icebreakers have been built to order for Gazprom Neft to operate around the Novoportovskoye field’s Arctic terminal in the Gulf of Ob (part of the Kara Sea), ensuring year-round supplies of Novy Port oil to the global market. They are designed to perform operational activities including icebreaking tanker support, mooring and loading operations, vessel towing, fire fighting, and oil-spill response and lifesaving operations. The icebreaker is named in honor of the famous Russian hydrographer, surveyor and polar explorer Andrey Vilkitsky. The vessel was designed and built at the Vyborg Shipyard to operate in freshwater systems in the Arctic, which are covered by up to two to 2.5 m of ice for 200 days of the year. Icebreaking vessels such as the Alexander Sannikov and the Andrey Vilkitsky are vital in ensuring uninterrupted oil supplies from the Polar Circle, carving water channels through which tankers can make their way, safely and unhindered, to the Arctic Gates terminal. The Andrey Vilkitsky’s unique hull allows it to cut through and break up the ice rather than simply crushing it like other nuclear icebreakers, while its shallow draught and maneuverability ensure the efficiency of the vessel. The Andrey Vilkitsky can accelerate up to 16 knots (30 km per hour) in open waters, can complete a full turn within a minute and, with propulsion power of 22 MW, demonstrates icebreaking capacity comparable with nuclear icebreakers of far greater power. The icebreaker was launched in 2017, before undergoing technical fitting-out and completion. Having successfully passed mooring and running tests, as well as ice trials, it is now ready to be dispatched to the Arctic Gates terminal, its new base in the Gulf of Ob. Alexander Dyukov, chairman of the Gazprom Neft Management Board, commented: “This is now the second high-tech icebreaker to be involved in ensuring uninterrupted oil shipments from the Novoportovskoye field, and will help improve efficiency in our work in the waters of the Gulf of Ob. Novy Port is one of the company’s fastest-developing assets. Production volumes at this field increased by more than 40% year-on-year. Logistics are playing the vital role here, making it possible to continue shipping and transporting oil through the Kara Sea, regardless of weather conditions. So building these icebreakers was an essential precondition to the further effective development of Novy Port.”
