With over 100 years of icebreaking and ice management know-how, the company keeps the winter passage open to and from Finnish ports. In summer months, Arctia’s multipurpose icebreakers work Arctic waters to ensure safe operations in the offshore oil and gas fields. The company’s vessels provide icebreaking services (icebreaking, infrastructure services, oil spill response, time charter) and offshore services (underwater construction, support services, "ice management", ploughing, lifting, towing).</p>
