The holding company "Roselectronics" of Rostec State Corporation will carry out work on the design of the infrastructure of the liquefied natural gas transshipment complex in the port of Murmansk. One of the key facilities will be an automated radio engineering post of the vessel traffic control system, which will ensure the safety of navigation in the waters of the port in the Bay of Ur.
The general developer of the project documentation for the first stage of the creation of the port infrastructure in the Barents Sea has been appointed a subsidiary of Roselectronics, the Neptune Research Institute. The investment project is being implemented by FSUE Rosmorport. During the first stage, the construction of an automated radio engineering post is planned. Vessel traffic control systems and communication equipment necessary to ensure radio navigation control in the waters of the Ura Bay will be installed at the facility.
The project was approved by the administration of the Murmansk region and received a positive conclusion of the environmental expertise of Rosprirodnadzor.
"Modernization of the coastal infrastructure of the port of Murmansk will have a positive impact on the development of the Northern Sea Route and the Arctic zone as a whole. An important element of the implementation of this project is to ensure the safety and compliance with environmental management measures in the Barents Sea. The work is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2022. The Neptune Research Institute has extensive experience in conducting research, developing and manufacturing automated communication systems and complexes for ships and coastal facilities in Russia," said Mikhail Vinokur, Director of the Neptune Research Institute.
As previously reported, the offshore LNG transshipment complex in the Murmansk region will become part of the territory of advanced development "Capital of the Arctic". According to local authorities, thanks to the facility, it will be possible to attract about 5.8 billion rubles to the region's economy.
