中國石化新聞網訊 據世界石油莫斯科12月24日消息,作為俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司(Gazprom Neft)“北極時代”項目的一部分,Andrey Vilkitsky破冰船已在圣彼得堡啟動,Alexander Sannikov破冰船和六艘油輪已經投入運營。 這些先進的破冰船是為俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司在Ob灣(喀拉海的一部分)的Novoportovskoye油田北極終端附近作業而建造的,以確保該油田全年向全球市場供應石油。它們被設計用于執行作業活動,包括破冰船支持、系泊和裝載作業、拖船、消防、溢油反應和救生作業。 這艘破冰船是以俄羅斯著名的地理學家、測量員和極地探險家安德烈·維爾基茨基的名字命名的。該船是在維堡船廠設計和建造的,在北極的淡水系統中運行,一年中有200天覆蓋了2至2.5米的冰層。像Alexander Sannikov和Andrey Vilkitsky這樣的破冰船對確保極地圈不間斷的石油供應至關重要,它們可以開鑿水道,讓油輪安全無阻地通過水道,駛向北極門終端。 Andrey Vilkitsky獨特的船體使其能夠穿透并粉碎冰塊,而不是像其他核破冰船那樣簡單地粉碎冰塊,而其吃水淺和機動性確保了船舶的效率。Andrey Vilkitsky在開闊水域,可以加速到16節(每小時30公里),能在一分鐘內完成一個整圈,推進力量22兆瓦,顯示出與功率大得多的核破冰船相當的破冰能力。 破冰船于2017年下水,然后進行技術裝備和完工。在成功通過系泊和運行測試以及冰試驗之后,它現在準備被派往位于Ob海灣的新基地——北極門終端。 俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司的董事長Alexander Dyukov評論說:“這是第二個確保從Novoportovskoye油田不間斷運輸石油的高科技破冰船,將有助于提高我們在Ob海灣水域工作的效率。諾維港是該公司發展最快的資產之一。該領域的產量同比增長超過40%。物流在這里起著至關重要的作用,無論天氣如何,都可以繼續通過喀拉海運輸和運輸石油。因此,建造這些破冰船是進一步有效發展諾維港的必要前提?!?陳菲 摘譯自 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.” ?
