Abstract: Abstract Russia’s Northern regions are hugely rich in different mineral resources, but the development of the fields and related transportation of produced assets are extremely difficult. The three thousand nautical miles of the coast are absolutely void of automobile and rail roads. The only passage is the maritime way through the waters of the northern seas, along shores with almost no permanent population. In Russia, this way is called the Northern Sea Route (NSR), and it occupies a central position in the Arctic transportation system. Essentially, it is a 2200 miles long national transportation thoroughfare that runs from the Novaya Zemlya archipelago to the Bering Strait through the waters of the Arctic Ocean seas. The authors believe that NSR development is a national idea in Russia’s progress. In this work, they will try to show a real situation using the example of liquefied natural gas (LNG) transportation.
