Navigability of the Northern Sea Route for Arc7 ice-class vessels during winter and spring sea-ice conditions
Sea ice hinders the navigability of the Arctic, especially in winter and spring. However, three Arc7 ice-class Liquefied Natural Gas carrying vessels safely transited the Northern Sea Route (NSR) without icebreaker assistance in January 2021. More and more Arc7 ice-class vessels are putting into the...
