Ships blocked in Ukrainian ports during the war: The ports of the Mykolaiv region
The Monitoring Group of BlackSeaNews
and the Black Sea Institute of Strategic Studies
*) In the article, for convenience, the term "EU+" is used, which covers not only EU member states, but also the USA, the UK, Monaco, Norway, etc.
The Monitoring Group of the Black Sea Institute of Strategic Studies and BlackSeaNews continues a series of articles about the fate of the ships that were in Ukrainian ports on 24 February 2022, when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of many regions of Ukraine.
As of 24 February 2022, in the commercial sea ports of the Mykolaiv region (international port codes UA NLV MYKOLAIV, UA OCT OLVIA, UA NIKA TERA, UA DNB DNEPROBUGSKY), in addition to port fleet vessels permanently based there, there were 29 merchant ships (See Table 1). All of them have remained in port under blockade.
Most of the ships had arrived for loading in the ports just 1-2 days before the full-blown war started on 24 February 2022.
The breakdown of the vessels by country of shipowner registration:
-
Greece – 8
-
Norway – 2
-
Estonia – 1
-
United Kingdom – 1
-
Denmark – 1
-
Turkey – 7
-
Ukraine – 4
-
China – 2
-
Bangladesh – 1
-
Marshall Islands – 1
-
Singapore – 1
Thus, out of the 29 ships blocked in the seaports of the Mykolaiv region as a result of Russia’s war against Ukraine, 13 belong to shipowners from EU+ countries and 16 - to shipowners from other countries.
