A double acting ship

Yuriy Kuchiev is an icebreaking gas condensate tanker. The vessel utilizes the Finnish innovation of Double acting ship, designed to operate bow first in open water and mild ice conditions and stern first in heavy ice conditions. This allows the ship independent operation without icebreaker escort in demanding conditions in ice-covered seas. The ship can break almost 2-meter-thick ice independently.

Helmacab (Helkama Bica) was the main cable supplier producing and delivering over 250 km of cables on time and according to Archtech Helsinki Shipyard’s production schedule. Helmacab covered the full scope of low voltage power and instrumentation cabling needs for the project.
