Far Eastern Shipping Company is one of the most significant shipping companies in Russia today. According to management, the company strives to become a leader in the transport industry on the territory of the Russian Federation.

Spreading

Far Eastern Shipping Company vessels operate all over the world.

The company's representative offices and agents are located both in Europe and throughout Asia. The official address of the Far Eastern Shipping Company is in Moscow, where you can communicate with senior management. And the main assets are located in Vladivostok.

Formation of the company

The Far Eastern Shipping Company traces its history back to 1880. Back in the days of the Russian Empire, a strategic decision was made to develop East Coast countries and shipping companies based on the port of Vladivostok. The Voluntary Fleet Agency company was created.

Well, the carrier company received its current name “Far Eastern Shipping Company” back in 1935.

Heading towards the distant shore was a steamship called "Moscow". It was with this voyage that the history of regular ship calls to the Vladivostok port began.

However, given climatic conditions this region, long time access by sea interrupted for the entire winter period due to the fact that the water area was covered with ice.

And only in 1894 the Voluntary Fleet Agency acquired a regular icebreaker. Throughout the winter of 1894-1895, the steamship “Strong” managed to ensure the continuous functioning of the port and prevent icing of the shipping canal.

During the Great Patriotic War

Vladivostok was the main Pacific outpost of the Soviet Union. The main danger then was the Japanese army.

By the beginning of 1941, the DMP merchant fleet already consisted of 70 steamships and 15 motor ships, among which there were also five tanker-type vessels.

In December 1941, the Land of the Rising Sun declared its rights to the Far Eastern Sangar and Korean, calling them “Japanese naval defense lines.” Although legally the rules for their passage were regulated by the principle of freedom open sea, in practice, enemy armed forces block the passage through the straits, including using weapons.

Border clashes have occurred before. After the official declaration of war, the city and port completely went into combat mode.

It so happened that during these years Vladivostok remained the last port of the USSR located outside the combat zone. There was a large flow of cargo through it for supply, defense and attack.

During the war years, the Far Eastern Shipping Company lost 25 of its own ships. The last ship torpedoed was the Transbalt, putting an end to this sad statistics.

In Russia

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russian Federation, which became the successor to the previous government, establishes Joint-Stock Company open type "Far Eastern Shipping Company".

IN new country With the existing fleet, the shipping company administration is directing great efforts to expand the geography of its work.

New shipping lines are opening between Australian and US ports.

Own agency companies begin their work in New Zealand, Hong Kong, and Canada.

The development of a new package of services begins, including forwarding with the possibility of providing ex-works services (door to door).

In 2003, with the opening of the FESCO Logistic company, whose office is located in Moscow, the Far Eastern Shipping Company focuses the service market on the European part of Russia. The development of railway transportation plays a significant role in this.

Fleet today

In 2006, the Far Eastern Shipping Company's fleet received six new container ships and one Ro-Ro vessel.

Today, FESCO operates twenty vessels of various years of construction.

The oldest ship in the fleet is the container ship Kapitan Krems, built back in 1980. Its deadweight is only 5805 registered tons. It is also one of the smallest ships in operation.

The newest vessel and at the same time the largest in the shipping company's operations is the container ship "Fesco Diomede", built in 2009, with a deadweight of 41,850 tons.

The icebreaking vessel Vasily Golovnin, which was built in 1988, is also still in operation.

"Captains"

The “captains” of the Far Eastern Shipping Company deserve special attention. Today, the fleet operates only four such vessels:

    "Captain Afanasyev";

    "Captain Maslov";

    "Captain Krems"

    "Captain Sergievsky."

All of them are single-deck motor ships designed for the transportation of general container cargo.

"Captain Afanasyev" and "Captain Maslov" were built in 1998 at the Polish shipyard in Szczecin. Vessels with a deadweight of more than 23 thousand registered tons sail under the flag of Cyprus.

"Captain Krems" and "Captain Sergievsky" are the oldest and most experienced ships in the fleet. Their story begins back in 1980, at the Vyborg shipyard and continues to this day.

Let's sum it up

Far Eastern Shipping Company today is a very important company in modern Russia, which strives to become a leader in the entire transport industry. Its history is wide and long. But she survived and not only does not lose her position, but she is developing and becoming more and more popular every day.
