Turkish yard wins bid to build nuclear icebreaker dock
The value of the contract with the Turkish KuzeyStar Shipyard is 4,981 billion rubles (€55 million). The dock, whose construction had been discussed since 2015, will be built and brought to Murmansk within 29 months of the signation of the contract. The dock will be able to carry out repairs on nuclear-powered icebreakers, including the new “Arctic” series of Project 22220. Also, Atomflot’s nuclear service ships, like the Imandra and Serebryanka, can get hull service in the new dock.
