TS Shipping wins icebreaking OSV contract

A public tender organized by the Estonian Transport Administration for the provision of icebreaking services and navigation in the Gulf of Finland has been won by TS Shipping, a subsidiary of Tallinna Sadam.

From December 2022 to April 2032, the contract will see TS Shipping deploy its 1998-built multipurpose offshore support vessel and icebreaker Botnica.

If the Botnica has to be phased out of the TS fleet, there is an additional condition for carrying a replacement vessel.

The estimated contract value is EUR54.2m ($65.2m).
