Vitaly Savelyev held a meeting of the government commission to coordinate work to eliminate the consequences of the emergency caused by the sinking of tankers in the Kerch Strait in December 2024
In Moscow, the next meeting of the government commission to coordinate work to eliminate the consequences of the emergency caused by the sinking of tankers in the Kerch Strait in December 2024 was held under the chairmanship of Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev.
At the commission meeting, the final version of the disposal of fuel oil from the sunken fragments of the tanker Volgoneft-239 and the tanker Volgoneft-212 was adopted.
“The final option for the disposal of fuel oil from sunken ships involves installing special engineering structures around them – cofferdams, which will isolate the fuel oil on the tankers, 3919 tons, and prevent its spillage in the Black Sea. When choosing the final option, we were guided mainly by issues of ensuring environmental safety in the emergency area. In the future, the fuel oil from the tankers will be pumped out through technological hatches in the cofferdams, and the cofferdams themselves will be disposed of together with the sunken parts of the ships. The implementation of this project will not interfere with shipping and will allow us to withstand storms at sea,” noted Vitaly Savelyev.
