Anapa (RUAAQ)

The port handles principally passenger vessels, coastal liners and cargo ships and is operated by Black Sea Speed Lines Ltd. Small pier's are located at Bolshoy Utrish, Dzhemete and Anapka that handle passengers.

Anapa is situated on the NE side of Anapa Bay on the Black Sea coast 160km W of Krasnodar and 52km NW of Novorossiysk.

Vessels may anchor within the harbour at anchorage N403, centred on 44°54'3'N 037°18.3'E and having a restricted area of radius 150m.

From N and W a stony bank extending from Mys Sredniy Anapskiy for a distance of 0.4nm is marked by two cardinal spar buoys. Four cardinal spar buoys mark from N, S, W and E a bank with a depth of 2.5m at a distance of 0.45nm NE of Mys Sredniy Anapskiy. Fairway starboard hand buoy (turning buoy) is established 0.3nm N of the berth "Pirs Nasypnoy" (Mys Severnyy Anapskiy). From seaward the recommended routes No 26 and No 29 lead to Anapa Bay. Vessels coming from seaward to enter the roadstead of Anapa should steer to Anapskiy alignment of light beacons leaving all spar buoys to starboard side. After having passed the fairway starboard hand buoy and when crossing the line of Anapskie Lights leading in the port vessels shall alter course southward and after covering a distance of 0.3nm they should moor to the berth "Pirs Nasypnoy". Vessels leaving the port are to proceed vice versa.

Mooring operations: Responsibility for preparation of berths for mooring operations and safety of mooring crews rest with the berth operator. Mooring operation in the port of Anapa is carried out 24 hours a day. Before mooring, the Pilot will advise the Master about berth conditions, approach space, depth at the berth and in the approaches, and give information with regard to staying at the berth in the local weather conditions. Mooring alongside another vessel staying at the berth is only carried out with agreement of both vessels' Masters and with written permission of the Harbour Master. Tankers which are not gas free are not allowed to enter the inner roads and moor to dry cargo berths in the port of Anapa. In case of stormy weather, after receiving a gale warning, the shift manager of the Port State Control Inspection will immediately transmit it to berthed vessels on VHF Ch 69. Vessels staying at Anapa must remember that the port is not a safe refuge from N'ly and W'ly winds.

Pilotage is compulsory in the harbour. Embarkation and disembarkation of a pilot is effected at the crossing point of Anapa Leading Line and meridian 037° 18.00'E. Exemption from pilotage is granted to: ..... 1. Small vessels, vessels permanently operating within the limits of the compulsory pilotage area, navigators with sufficient experience in command ranks who have tested their knowledge of the traffic rules in the Maritime Port Authority area and have appropriate pilotage exemption certificates. 2. Russian Naval, Coastguard and Customs vessels and vessels after presentation of the appropriate commander. Pilotage of vessels in the inner harbour of the port is considered to be port pilotage, and outside this area, sea pilotage is rendered. Pilotage of vessels in the harbour of the port, as well as shifting vessels, is carried out by licensed pilots of state enterprise ''Russeaport'' day and night, unless the Port Authorities or meteorological conditions set other restrictions. Dues for port pilotage are collected for each cubic metre of the vessels relative volume and each port operation. Port operations include berthing, unberthing, mooring to buoys, unmooring to buoys, anchoring, heaving up anchor, as well as pilotage in the inner harbour of the port, shifting alongside berth for a distance of less than the vessels length. Pilotage dues for sea pilotage are collected for every mile of pilotage in the fairway and every cubic metre of the vessels relative volume. If sea pilotage is rendered, port pilotage is counted as one operation, and shifting is counted as three operations. Requests for Pilot services shall be made by Masters as follows: ..... 1. Arriving at the port from sea - to the Harbour Master 24 hours before arrival at the pilot station, and confirmed via the vessel's agent 2 hours before the indicated time on VHF Ch 69, call sign ''Anapa-11'' 2. Staying in the port and intending to depart - to Port State Control Inspection via the vessel's agent not less than 2 hours before the ETD. Any cancellation of a request for a pilot must be made by the agent not less than 1.5 hours before the pre-arranged time.

The harbour of the port of Anapa lies S of 44°54.8'N and between 037°18.0'E and 037°18.8'E.

Anapskiy alignment of light beacons established at a distance of 0.96nm ENE of Mys Sredniy Anapskiy leads to the roadstead of Anapa. Anapskiy alignment of light beacons is equipped on Mys Severnyy Anapskiy (front light exhibited at the end of the berth "Pirs Nasypnoy"). Anapskiy Lighthouse, which has a radio beacon, stands on a steep shore at 0.3nm SSE of Mys Yuzhnyy Anapskiy.

In summer vessels of up to 114m long can enter the port. In autumn and winter vessels up to 93m long. The passage draught must not exceed 3.5m. Vessels are prohibited to stay at berths in the port of Anapa with a wind speed of more than 27kts and wave height of more than 1m.

Max range 0.1m. Along shore current runs in an anti-clockwise direction parallel to shore line with a velocity of 0.6-1.2kts.

All vessels of 200GT or more are subject to compulsory tug assistance. Berthing tug and harbour tug with capacity of 470hp and 150hp respectively are available in the port. Orders for tugs are given by the vessel's Master via his agent to the duty inspector of the Port State Control Inspection on VHF Ch 95, call sign ''Anapa11''. The number and power of tugs are determined by the vessel's Master and Pilot taking into consideration meteorological condition and berth particulars. Cancellation of towage orders must be given to the controller of the towage company not less than 1 hour before the pre arranged time. In case of delay in leaving berth or shifting the vessel for more than 30 minutes after the pre arranged time, the towage company controller has a right to call off the tugs and the Master must sign a bill for the tug passage from their station and time spent in waiting. Towage bills are drawn up after completion of the operations. The vessel's Master must sign and seal them with the vessel's stamp and pass them to the Tug Master or the Pilot.

In winter NE'ly, N'ly and E'ly winds prevail having an average velocity of 7.8-15.5kts, sometimes reaching 38.8-48.5kts. In summer NE'ly, E'ly and SW'ly winds blow with a velocity not exceeding 3.8-9.7kts Fog is rare, 8-10 days a year. Precipitation principally occurs from Nov through to Apr, on average 110 days a year. It rains 0-2 times through summer. SW'ly and W'ly winds cause heavy sea in Anapa Bay and at times they cause changes of water level known as "seiche". Seiche effects; a vessel may strike against jetty or another vessel or may be suddenly pushed off from the jetty causing breaking of its mooring lines. During strong winds from the SW and W directions for vessels lying alongside it is dangerous and in the inner roads impracticable. With even a very strong NE'ly wind a vessel may safely remain alongside berth.

Close watch should be kept on mooring lines and fenders; additional instructions from the Harbour Master with respect to ensuring safety of vessels in the port shall be followed. 7. Port of Anapa does not provide a sound refuge from NW'ly and W'ly winds. When heavy waves over force 4 and winds from these directions exceeding 27.2kts as well as upon receipt of a storm warning, vessels will not be accepted by the port station of Anapa. Under these weather conditions vessels lying alongside should leave for roadstead. 8. For the whole period of lying in the roadstead a vessel shall stand by to weigh anchor depending on the anchorage conditions, protection of the roads from sea and weather conditions and according to the weather forecast. Ship's position is to be regularly checked up, frequency of checks should be determined by Shipmaster or his substitute; weather observation is to be kept and meteorological information received. While staying in the roadstead upon increasing wind speed a vessel shall take the following measures: 1. Vessel's main engine is to be ready for immediate use. 2.

Wind velocity to be verified every 30 minutes. 6. In order to slacken jerking and tension on cable owing to gusts of wind, a vessel may use its engine, if necessary. 7. A vessel is to weigh up anchor and leave for open sea for the period of storm unless safe lying in the roads can be ensured. Should heaving on chain cable be impossible under the circumstances, the joining shackle should be disconnected and anchor together with chain cable and buoy left in the roadstead; any delay in weighing anchor can result in breaking of the cable and anchor loss.
