of Diesel-elektrokhod "Vasily Golovnin" finished works within the project of the Ministry of Defence of Argentina on providing with freights of research stations in Antarctica. The port of registry — Vladivostok, and the customer — Buenos Aires.
In Antarctica the Russian diesel electrocourse "Vasily Golovnin" performed operation on supply of the Argentina polar explorers by all necessary for work. In a route of a vessel of Far East Shipping Company there were eleven research stations. The Russian seamen worked in Antarctica more than a month. 8,5 thousand tons of freights were delivered to polar stations. Products, fuel, scientific equipment. Right after completion of the expedition "Vasily Golovnin" will go to the following flight — the western sector of the Arctic.
to receive all particulars of work of our fellow countrymen in Antarctica, from DVPM office in Vladivostok we contact the captain of an electrocourse "Vasily Golovnin" who left at this time the Argentina port Baya-Blanca. Iksan Yusupov, the captain the diesel electrocourse "Vasily Golovnin", tells: "We work any more the first year, the eighth year. Rate of work the very high! For 24 hours in work. This year were late a little. And it was necessary to work in more difficult conditions. And the wind went more strongly. And ice went. In this regard every day it is very expensive. It is impossible to relax! With Argentinians it is coped we work. While all turns out!"
you will not find p In Antarctica of convenient ports. Just like that not to moor to the coast. Freight transported by means of two helicopters and self-propelled barges. Worked even then when others assured: it cannot be made! Maxim Bagryanov, the chief of freight department of PAO DVMP, speaks: "That we in Russia are able to do, so it to work in extreme conditions! Where instructions do not work! When it seems that it is impossible! And our children do it. Let's tell, pilots Argentina: "I would not depart"! And ours departed. Or: "We would not go on a vessel, for us there it is scared", and ours do it! "
Took care not only of people, but also of ecology. In Antarctica recycling therefore "Vasily Golovnin" took out hundreds tons of garbage which accumulated at polar stations is forbidden.
