MV Yong Sheng 2012-4.jpg

The Yong Sheng is a Chinese bulk carrier that made an historic trip across Russia's Northern Sea Route in 2013.[1] She was the first Chinese vessel to use the Northern Sea Route.[2]

She left Dalian, heading to Rotterdam, across Russia, on August 8, 2013.[2] This route was expected to take 35 days, two weeks less time than going south, and through the Suez Canal. However, the vessel arrived on September 10, 2013, in 33 days.[3]

Nunatsiaq News pointed out that, unlike the entrance to the Red Sea, there is no risk of attack by pirates on Northern routes.[3]

The Yong Sheng displaces 19,000 tonnes.[2]

Ben Anderson, writing in the Alaska Dispatch, reminded readers that when fans of Northern shipping routes look forward to an "ice free" Arctic, it will only be ice free for a few months.[4]
