Arkhangelsk companies not prepared for oil spills
Most Arkhangelsk companies responsible for liquidation of oil spills have not established respective subdivisions.
In May 2003 the Arkhangelsk regional administration presented a list of 27 companies, which are committed to develop oil spill preparedness mechanism.

Other companies, among them Krasnaya Kuznitsa, Northern River Shipping Company, and Rosneft’s Arktikreyd, do not observe oil spill preparedness regulations.
