TSAMTO, October 27. On the main slipway of the Baltic Plant (part of the USC), the operation of loading metal-water protection tanks (MVZ) on board the project 22220 Yakutia nuclear icebreaker under construction has been completed.

The technologically complex operation of loading the tanks of the MVZ was carried out with the help of a special mounted cargo portal. The specialists of the plant had to lift two 250-ton structures to a height of almost 20 m and install them on board the vessel. It took four days to load the starboard and port side tanks.

The MVZ tanks are manufactured by specialists of the Baltic Plant's special energy workshop. They are one of the components of the foundations for the reactor installations of the future vessel, remove heat from the equipment of the reactor installation, and also performs the functions of biological protection of the ship's crew.

The nuclear-powered universal icebreaker Yakutia was laid down on May 26, 2020. This is the fourth vessel in the line of project 22220, which is being built at the Baltic Plant. According to the plans, in 2022, the company's specialists should launch the icebreaker Yakutia into the water. The transfer of the vessel to the customer is scheduled for the end of 2024.

In addition to the nuclear icebreaker Yakutia, three more vessels of Project 22220 are currently in varying degrees of readiness at the Baltic Plant: the icebreakers Siberia, Ural and Chukotka.
