Construction begins

On 15 September Roshydromet, citing TASS, reported the start of construction of the Naiba deep-water cargo terminal in Tiksi port. This is the start of an infrastructure project; the announcement does not mean the new facility already accepts commercial consignments.

Plan the complete supply chain

Editorial advice: combine cargo readiness, delivery to an operating terminal, transloading and the final leg to the consignee in one plan for a remote site. A future port belongs in long-term scenarios; the next supply movement needs confirmed operating facilities.

Define cargo acceptance deadlines for every stage and storage arrangements if departure is postponed. Confirm seasonality and actual schedules with each leg’s operator. Do not turn a corridor development plan into a promise of an exact delivery date.

Prepare cargo for transfers

For equipment, provide drawings, packed weight and dimensions, lifting points and moisture-protection requirements in advance. These details help assess compatibility between vehicle, terminal equipment and onward transport. Assign a responsible contact to every handover.

When comparing options, include storage, handling and receiving availability alongside the main transport leg. For a remote consignee, the ability to unload and receive cargo safely may matter more than a short distance on the map.

Frequently asked questions

Can Naiba already be treated as an operating terminal?

The reviewed announcement confirms a construction start. An operating route requires separate confirmation of cargo acceptance and handling.
