FSUE "Rosmorport" announces the replenishment of the fleet of its Azov-Black Sea Basin Branch. These are the "Azot" and "Tolyattiazot" tugboats of Project 90600, which have been renamed "Bodry" and "Moshchny". The vessels have already arrived at their place of service.
According to the Azov-Black Sea Basin Branch of Rosmorport, the tugs became the 76th and 77th vessels in the organization's fleet. After overhaul in the scope of the next survey, they will begin to operate in the waters of the seaports located on the coast of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait.
Project 90600
Project 90600 tugs are being built at the Leningrad Shipyard "Pella". These are steel single-deck vessels with a midships location of the wheelhouse and an aft location of the engine room. They have ice reinforcements of the hull and propeller-rudder group, therefore they can even navigate in rarefied ice with a thickness of level ice up to 0.8 m.
Tugs of this project are designed for:
- performing towing and berthing operations in the port, at roadsteads and in coastal areas;
- refloating ships and vessels;
- fire fighting and oil spill response.
Also, according to the Ministry of Defense, vessels of Project 90600 can perform "other functions".

- length overall, m — 25.4;
- width overall, m — 8.8;
- draft, m — 3.9;
- bollard pull, t — at least 23;
- propulsion complex — 2 CRP with ducted propellers;
- main engine, kW — 2 x 735;
