Project MPSV06 salvage ship

One vessel based on the original Project MPSV06 design, Kerchenskiy Proliv, has been under construction at Amur Shipbuilding Plant in Russia since 2010 and is expected to enter service in 2024.

Two vessels based on a slightly modified Project MPSV06-NY design, Beringov Proliv and Murman, were built at Nordic Yards Wismar in Germany in 2015.

Two further vessels based on a modernized Project MPSV06M design, Pevek and Anadyr, are under construction at Yantar Shipyard in Kaliningrad with delivery scheduled for 2024.

[11] On 29 September 2024, the vessel left Komsomolsk-on-Amur under tow with pontoons attached to its hull to reduce draught during the voyage along the Amur River.

[12] On 19 December 2012, the German shipbuilder Nordic Yards based in Wismar was awarded a 150 million euro contract for the construction of the two further Project MPSV06 icebreaking multipurpose salvage ships.

[19][20] The fourth icebreaking multipurpose salvage vessel included in the federal budget was built to a different design by the Russian-owned Arctech Helsinki Shipyard in Finland in 2014.

The general layout of the vessel includes a helideck for Kamov Ka-32 forward, deckhouse amidships, and an open working deck with two 32-tonne cranes, 80-tonne A-frame, and other equipment aft.

[6] Kerchenskiy Proliv was originally provided with Rolls-Royce (today Kongsberg Maritime) Z-drive thrusters which may have become unserviceable while the vessel's construction was suspended.
