The Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences plans to raise the sunken research vessel "Ashamba". This was reported by the press service of the university.
The vessel was in winter lay-up in the port of Novorossiysk after completing the 2024 expedition season. From February 17, meteorological conditions significantly deteriorated. The north-easterly wind increased to storm levels, and the temperature dropped to -7°. R/V "Ashamba" sank as a result of icing on February 22 in the port of Novorossiysk.
There were no casualties. However, there were about 200 liters of diesel fuel on board. To prevent pollution of the water area, it is planned to install boom barriers.
It is worth noting that in November 2021, "Ashamba" was washed ashore in the Gelendzhik area due to a leak in the engine room.
The vessel was used for monitoring and polygon studies of the coastal shelf zone of the sea. It had restrictions on the navigation area in the 12-mile zone of territorial waters (the depth of the sea in this zone is up to 1700 m).
