Gas Carrier Dashes Across Arctic Ocean in Just 10 Days Delivering Russian LNG to Asia

The 172,846 cbm LNG carrier Georgiy Ushakov crossed the Arctic from Russia’s Yamal Peninsula to the Bering Strait in less than 10 days passing through extensive late-winter sea ice. The Arc7 ice-class gas tanker was accompanied by the nuclear icebreaker Yamal for part of the 2,500 nautical mile journey.
