The planned replacement of the electric motor of the right propeller shaft was carried out on the lead universal nuclear icebreaker "Arktika" of project 22220. The icebreaker arrived at the Baltic Shipyard to complete the work. This was reported by the press service of the enterprise.
"Arktika" was in the dry dock of the "Kronstadt Marine Plant" for exactly one month, where the electric motor of the propeller shaft was replaced. To do this, the ship repairers had to cut out part of the outer skin. After completing all the necessary work, as well as servicing the icebreaker's hull, "Arktika" was taken out of the dock and, with the help of tugs, was transferred to St. Petersburg to the "Baltiyskiy Zavod".
At present, the vessel is at the berth of the Baltic Shipyard; the icebreaker will carry out a number of works on the final adjustment and adjustment of the systems. The icebreaker with an already serviceable right propeller shaft electric motor will be tested for testing in mid-October.
The lead icebreaker "Arktika" of project 22220 was laid down in November 2013, launched on June 16, 2016 and put into operation on October 21, 2020. At the same time, the transfer of the ship took place with an emergency electric motor with power limitations "under certain guarantees and obligations." The icebreaker received damage to the right propeller motor as a result of mooring tests in December 2019.
