October: Despite the storm

As always, at the end of the month, Oboronlogistics summed up the results of the sea transportation carried out in October 2023:

1. The ferries "Oboronlogistics" "Maria" and "Lawrence", involved on the line "Crimea – Caucasus", despite a number of storm warnings, made 260 round trips, transported more than 14,000 vehicles and about 23,000 passengers. Due to the restoration of full-fledged passenger car traffic on the Crimean Bridge, the number of passengers is decreasing, but freight transport with perishable goods and essential goods continues to follow the ferry line.

This is less than last month, because due to the storms raging in the Baltic, as well as in connection with the repair of the Baltiysk ferry, ferries made fewer flights. The main nomenclature of goods, as usual, consisted of fuel and lubricants and construction materials, fertilizers, food.

In total, the vessels of the "Defense Logistics" "Sparta" and "Sparta II" involved in the line transported about 26,000 tons of cargo, including:

containers – 1,333 units (19,380 tons);
rolling equipment – 234 units . (6,040 tons);
