Novorossiysk (RUNVS)

The Port of Novorossiysk, a gateway to the Black Sea, stands as one of the largest and most vital ports in the region. Its strategic location along the coast not only enhances its significance in maritime trade but also makes it a bustling hub of economic activity. This port is divided into two main harbours: the Sheskharis Oil Harbour and the dry cargo port. Each harbour is designed to cater to a diverse range of cargo, ensuring that the port remains a vital player in global supply chains. The Sheskharis Oil Harbour is particularly noteworthy, specialising in the handling of crude oil, while the dry cargo port adeptly manages an array of goods, including grain, sugar, metal, scrap, mineral fertilizers, refrigeration units, containers, and timber. Adding to its significance, the Yuzhnaya Ozereyevka CPC-R Marine Terminal lies approximately 16km SW of the entrance to Novorossiysk Bay, about 2.6nm offshore. This terminal is equipped with three Single Point Moorings (SPMs), specifically designed for loading crude oil (CPC-Blend) into Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs). Within the confines of the Port of Novorossiysk, a naval terminal operates, enhancing the port's strategic importance.

Berthing and unberthing available day and night. Vessels arriving at Novorossiysk during NE storm wind (Bora) or caught by Bora in the inner or outer roads, along with vessels which have received a storm warning, should be aware that riding to an anchor in Novorossiyskaya Bay is dangerous. Therefore vessels should put to sea or stay anchored in Areas No 53 and 54 opposite Yuzhnaya Ozereyevka village, or in Area No 77, keeping engines at standby and keeping watch over anchor cable. Under such circumstances a vessel is recommended to be in continuous radio contact. Without permission of "Traffic Control" it is prohibited to launch vessel's life boats or to use them for access to the shore. For mooring, the vessel must proceed to pilot boarding area in position 44°37.7'N., 037°48.0'E and when the pilot embarks, he will explain his intended manoeuvres, tug signals and other relevant information, including depth of water at the berth, to the Master. With the exception of this, the Master remains responsible for the safe navigation and handling of the vessel. General berthing information: It is prohibited for vessels to anchor in the Inner Port without special permission from the Harbour Master. Entering the Inner Port and mooring in the Dry Cargo Harbour is prohibited for non gas free tankers. Vessels lying at anchor must maintain continuous watch on VHF Ch 16. For vessels lying at berths in the Dry Cargo Harbour and Sheskharis Oil Harbour, it is not permitted to conduct any onboard drills without the permission of the Harbour Master and the Fire Guard. In case of an anchor loss or drowning in the port limits, the vessel's Master must immediately inform the Port Control. A berthed vessel should be secured properly. A constant watch must be kept on mooring lines. Having received a storm warning, Master must take all measures to ensure his vessel has sufficient mooring lines out. When there is danger of a berthed vessel breaking adrift, the Master must order tugs in advance for holding back the vessel, while laying out additional mooring lines. Port tugs are not permitted to be used as a constant means to hold vessels at berths in stormy weather. Keeping tugs alongside over 2 hours is considered to be a salvage action. Vessels with dangerous cargo must keep engines in constant readiness. The number of crew members onboard the vessel must be sufficient to ensure an instant departure with the help of its own engine and tugs. The immobilisation of the main engine, steering or anchor gear, or the trimming of berthed vessels is possible with the Harbour Master's written consent. For carrying out these works permission is granted for no more than 3 vessels simultaneously. Vessels must provide rat guards on mooring ropes. The Sheskharis Oil Harbour: Berth Nos 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, mooring starboard side alongside, Berth No 7, port side alongside. .....

Berth Nos 1 and 2 of Stroykomplekt and all berths of Sheskharis Oil Harbour are required to maintain a min UKC of 0.6m. No restrictions on night entry into the inner roads. Mooring and/or unmooring, both in the Dry Cargo Harbour and the Sheskharis Oil Harbour cannot be effected during S'ly or NE winds over force 7. Vessels are prohibited to berth at Berths No 4, 9, 14, 17 with S'ly wind exceeding 27kts or when the forecast is unfavourable. Tankers, when not gas free, are prohibited from entering the inner harbour and from berthing at dry cargo piers. Vessels are not permitted to use their radar while in the inner harbour or alongside. Prohibited area: A wreck lies within a radius centred on 44°35.8'N., 037°52.8'E. ..... Speed Restrictions CPC-R Marine Terminal: Vessel 1000m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 3.0kts Vessel 800m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 2.7kts Vessel 500m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 2.5kts Vessel 300m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 1.5kts Vessel 100m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 0.8kts Vessel 50m from the SPM Speed should not exceed 0.3kts Note: In the event of difficult weather and sea conditions then when the vessel is 100m from the SPM the max speed must not exceed 1.2kts with an escort tug retaining the tanker at 20% power.

Range 0.6m. The tidal variation is insignificant and depends on the direction of the wind. N'ly winds: +0.15 to +0.25m CD. S'ly winds: +0.4 to +0.6m CD. CPC-R Marine Terminal Currents: The currents generally set NW'ly at rates rarely exceeding approx 1.5kts. Significant wave height is less than 1m for the majority of summer and then greater than 2-3m for a small portion of the winter months. Tides: Black Sea is non-tidal, however, abnormal water levels may occur due to wind surges and "seiches". The max range is 1.2m with a duration from a few mins to several hours.

Traffic regulation of vessels is carried out by Traffic Control Service (SUDS) through a Traffic Control Centre. The Vessel Travel Service Operation Zone is bounded by the following: ..... Lat Long 1. 44°32.2'N 038°04.6'E 2. 44°30.4'N 038°01.9'E 3. 44°36.7'N 037°34.0'E 4. 44°40.5'N 037°34.0'E Permission to enter the VTS Operation Zone should be requested 15 minutes prior to arrival. Should entry be delayed for more than 15 minutes, another request should be made. The initial request should contain the following information: ..... 1. Vessel's name, flag, callsign and type 2. MMSI No 3. ETA at the VTS area 4. Maximum speed while manoeuvringl 5. Port of destination and name of vessel's agent 6. Draught 7. Dangerous goods onboard 8. Number if crew members and passengers onboard 15. State of main engine, steering gear and radar station 16. Any limitations in vessel's operation A continuous listening watch should be maintained on VHF Ch 09 and 16 whilst within the VTS Operation Zone. An operational completion message (berthing, anchoring, weighing anchor etc) should be sent to the VTS Centre no less than 3-5 minutes in advance. When malfunctions affecting the safety of navigation occur or contact with the VTS Centre is lost, the vessel should notify the VTS Centre by any available means, leave the leading line, cast anchor or heave aback. To ensure passage it is necessary to notify the VTS Centre of the correction of the malfunctions and request permission for further navigation. Radar Pilotage: Compulsory for all vessels under conditions of low visibility (2nm and less) or rough sea and weather; for tankers and other vessels carrying dangerous goods or hazardous materials; for vessels whose ship board navigational aids are faulty and for any tow whose length exceeds 65m. Radar Pilotage is affected on VHF Ch 68, reserve VHF Ch 11. Vessels bound for the CPC-R Terminal must request permission from the CPC-R Port Control to enter Area No 670, 1nm in advance. The request should include vessel's name, callsign, last port of call and destination. Vessels should also report to CPC-R Port Control when leaving the area.

Compulsory for vessels of 200GT and above for berthing/unberthing and should be ordered 2 hours before commencing operations. Number and power of tugs required to be determined by Master and pilot. Tugs of between 600-5,000hp are available and 2 fire boats with foam equipment. Usually all tugs use vessel's ropes and work with long and short ropes on bollards. While manoeuvring at the Sheckharis Berths two or more tugs are required regardless of the vessel's size. CPC-R Marine Terminal: An escort tug will be provided to assist the tanker during an emergency situation.

The weather is announced by the Meteorological Bureau on Ch 09 every day at 0630 and 1300hrs. Ice: The harbour is ice free except in very severe winters when coastal ice may be formed. Fog: Visibility due to fog can pose a threat. It can sometimes lead to the cessation of cargo operations. Prevailing winds: Prevailing NW'ly. There are two types of weather in Novorossiysk Bay: Anticyclonic weather is distinguished by N'ly winds in summer and in wintertime the N-E'ly "Bora". The ''Bora'' can reach hurricane force, occur in late autumn or early spring and can last from a few hours to 15 days. It is impossible to enter the port when "Bora" blows, therefore, all vessels are recommended to leave Novorossiysk Bay for the open sea beforehand or lay at anchor in the Yuzhnaya Ozereika Roads, at a distance of 8.5nm westward of the entrance to the port of Novorossiysk or in Anchorage Area No 416, to the S of the Doob Point, until the weather improves. Cyclonic type of weather is distinguished by winds from S and W directions in summer with low cloud, medium highs and thunderstorms. In winter by heavy rain. Moorings: In winter, vessels lying at Berths No 5, 6, 10-12, 18, 19 and 27, during NE winds and after receiving a storm warning, must be secured to shore bollards by the necessary number of mooring lines with sufficient strength to keep them tight. While S, SE and SW winds blow, vessels lying at berths subject to sea swell, namely Berths No 5, 6, 8 and 10 must be secured to shore bollards by a sufficient number of mooring lines ensuring that all lines are tight and have equal pressure when vessels move on the berths under sea swell. Mooring to Berths No 4, 9 and 17 is prohibited while S winds blow with force over 16kts or in unfavourable weather forecast. Vessels lying at these berths, on receiving a storm warning or when the wind starts to blow or sea swell comes from the S, must immediately leave the port and sail for the roads or lie in Anchorages 408, 410 keeping a constant anchor watch. For urgent departures, there must be a Master or Chief Mate, Chief or First Engineer and sufficient number of crew members to keep the engine in constant readiness. Visibility is usually good throughout the year. Vessels to be moored must be pushed on to the berth by mooring ropes or tugs at lowest possible speed. The limitations for approach and mooring are dependent on wind force and wave conditions as follows: ..... Weather conditions Sheskharis Oil Harbour Berths No 1 No 2 No 3 No 4 No 5 No 6 No 7 No 8 South winds and waves: Wind (kts) 17 33 33 17 17 17 27 27 Waves (Ht in m) 1.3 2.0 2.0 - 1.3 1.3 1.3 1.3 North winds and waves: Wind (kts) 27 33 33 - 33 27 33 33 Waves (Ht in m) 1.3 - - - - 1.3 1.3 - Notes: 1. After storm warning of S winds, mooring and remaining is prohibited at berths of metal Piers No 1 and 5-8. Vessels staying there shall terminate cargo operations and leave for outer roads. 2. For NE winds rising to 27kts, a storm warning is given, making it dangerous for vessels to stay at Berths No 1 and 6. Vessels must disconnect hoses, stow gangway and make ready to leave berth. The following conditions must be observed when mooring tankers to deep Berth No 1: 1. Ballast onboard to be at least one third of cargo capacity. 2. At least 2 tugs with a total capacity of approx 8,000hp to be employed for approach manoeuvres and mooring. CPC-R Marine Terminal: It is known that there are three types of weather due to the frequent changes of anticyclone and cyclone circulation: NE type, SW type and Cyclone type. Prevailing winds: NW'ly (27-35% of the time) velocity of 5-8m/s which may rise as high as 15m/s. SW'ly (22-30%) 3-5m/s and NEly (28%). As previously mentioned, between Nov-Mar strong NE'ly winds known as "BORA" may occur. Ice: Ice-free year round, however ice on vessel's decks and superstructures may occur in winter during the strong NE'ly winds when BORA sets in. Tankers may be required to leave an SPM when the following weather conditions exist or are expected; ..... 1. If sea swell becomes greater than 4m 2. If floating hoses can be damaged 3. If wind speed exceed 44kts 4. If mooring hawser has a load of 100t or more.
