The U.S. want to help the Russian Northern Fleet with securing of spent fuel from nuclear submarines. According to the U.S. vice-secretary of State Strobe Talbot, a new service vessel for transport of spent fuel to the Russian navy could be build in the U.S.

According to the Norwegian newspaper Nordlys the suggested project is not confirmed by Russia. The Norwegian company Kværner Maritime a.s. is also working on a service vessel project for transporting Russian naval fuel from the submarine bases at the Kola Peninsula.
