As of January 2024, _three_ Project 22220 icebreakers _Arktika_ , _Sibir_ and _Ural_ are in service, fourth (Yakutiya) has been launched, fifth and sixth (Chukotka and Leningrad) have been laid down at Baltic Shipyard in Saint Petersburg, and seventh (Stalingrad) is on order.

Realy I like this icebreaker

And that was from 2020...

👍👍👍

Only Russian oil and gas will go that via the artic. It's too cold for container cargoes - customers don't want their goods frozen.

Some of the goods like frozen meat, frozen fish, frozen vegetables have to be kept cold and now they use refrigerators to cool them down. That can be avoided and all the costs comming with it too. Steel, plasic and minerals don‘t need any protection. Shoes, sneakers, clothes, etc. could be put into styrofoam boxes to protect them a little bit if needed. Only electronic devices like phones, tablets, TV’s, etc. could be sent througn the Bosporus channel. However, I guess that some ships could install some heaters instead of refrigerators. Only battery packs and maybe some chips need a temperature of at least +10°C (Google: abowe +10°C, but ideal temperature +15°C to +20°C for a long time storage).

If you fly from Europe to the USA or to Australia, everything you take with you faces a temperature of -50°C for around 12-18 hours. In the north pole region this low temperature comes only in the winter for a few months. 8 months of the year this region is warmer then Mongolia or Kasachstan. The only two problems used to be the ice and the unpredictable changes of the surface on the bottom of the sea but the Russians have installed lots of satelites to monitor the changes. Now the only problem is the ice but according Rossneft around 30 new icebreakers are about to be build in the next decade or two. The Lider project is only one of the largest ones of them.

​@@neko1533 The trouble is humidity in the air becomes water on the surface of everything as the temperature drops in a confined space. At 0 centigrade it freezes. Both can do damage to goods. Both heating and cooling cost money. Chilled containers have their own chillers, ship just supplies power. So goods could be kept warm. Most container ships have some capacity to heat/cool cargo. Most container ships carry a variety of cargo allowing shipping companies to offer a liner service where goods can be sent overseas once a day, or every few days, etc. Going through the tropics, the sea moderates the wind temperature. If goods get 10 or 20 degree warmer in the container, the relative humidity of the air falls, keeping the goods from getting wet. So, I can't see the pattern of shipping changing just because Russia makes a northern route possible. 37MW reactors sounds like submarine reactors. 4 on a ship makes an expensive ship. Four 30MW motors and the gearbox and propellers are the cheap bit. I would be inclined to have a couple of LNG tanks, eight 20MW gas turbines and generators to provide heat and power to the icebreaker. A nuclear icebreaker is probably about maintaining capacity to build nuclear submarines.

​@@neko1533no it doesn't. Being in the plane's container space, the goods are protected from outside temperature by the plane's exterior coatings, the hull (more and more an insulating composite), the walls of the cargo space, and the cargo container. Hot air is bled from the engine compressors for both the cabin and cargo space. They are kept at the same temperature and pressure to minimise impact on the aircraft and passengers - don't want a cold floor for passengers feet.

Wait a minute! Algore told us that because "climate change" there wouldn't be any arctic ice by now! Those Russians ate wasting money on ice breakers! 😉

We'll be able to take a row boat to the north pole . Palm trees will flourish.

The project of this icebreaker has been stopped, there is no money, and there are no cargo ships that it should serve. They began to build it for 30 LNG gas carriers for the Novatek company, but USA sanctions were imposed on this company and all contracts with South Korea for the construction of gas carriers were canceled. At the moment, a small piece of the icebreaker is at the Zvezda shipyard. Russia decided to build two other icebreakers of a lower class instead.
