The port of Murmansk remains ice-free year round due to the warm [[North Atlantic Current]] and is an important fishing and shipping destination. It is home port to [[Atomflot]], the world's only fleet of [[nuclear-powered icebreaker]]s.<ref>{{cite web |title=Atomflot – Bellona |url=http://www.bellona.org/english_import_area/international/russia/civilian_nuclear_vessels/radwaste/30138 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716181054/http://www.bellona.org/english_import_area/international/russia/civilian_nuclear_vessels/radwaste/30138 |archive-date=July 16, 2011 |access-date=2010-12-07 |publisher=Bellona |df=mdy-all}}</ref>

The [[Port of Murmansk]] is the headquarters of [[Northern Sea Route|Sevmorput]] (Northern Sea Route) and the administration of Russian Arctic maritime transport. In 2018, the Russian government transferred the main responsibility for the Northern Sea Route to [[Rosatom]] which through its ROSATOMFLOT subsidiary manages the Russian nuclear powered icebreaker fleet based in Murmansk.<ref>{{Cite news| url=https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/arctic/2018/07/vyasheslav-ruksha-will-lead-newly-established-northern-sea-route-directorate | title= Vyacheslav Ruksha will lead the newly established Northern Sea Route Directorate |first=Thomas |last=Nilsen | date=2018-07-18 | work=The Barents Observer | access-date=2020-12-17 | archive-date=2020-11-12 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201112023132/https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/arctic/2018/07/vyasheslav-ruksha-will-lead-newly-established-northern-sea-route-directorate}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://calrev.org/2019/07/18/cold-ambition-the-new-geopolitical-faultline/?v=7516fd43adaa|title=Cold Ambition: The New Geopolitical Faultline|last=Henderson|first=Isaiah|date=July 18, 2019|work=The California Review|access-date=December 17, 2020|archive-date=November 12, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201112224453/https://calrev.org/2019/07/18/cold-ambition-the-new-geopolitical-faultline/?v=7516fd43adaa}}</ref>

====Arctic Bridge====
Murmansk is set to be the Russian terminus of the [[Arctic Bridge]], a sea route linking it to the [[Canada|Canadian]] port of [[Churchill, Manitoba|Churchill]], [[Manitoba]]. Even though the passage has not been fully tested for commercial shipping yet, Russian interest in this project (along with the [[Northwest Passage]]) is substantial, as the bridge will serve as a major trade route between [[North America]], [[Europe]] and [[Asia]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2014-08-18 |title=Chinese goods may come to US via Murmansk |work=Barentsnova |url=http://barentsnova.com/business-overview/our-stories/1883-chinese-goods-may-come-to-us-via-murmansk/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140912114947/http://barentsnova.com/business%2Doverview/our%2Dstories/1883%2Dchinese%2Dgoods%2Dmay%2Dcome%2Dto%2Dus%2Dvia%2Dmurmansk/ |archive-date=2014-09-12}}</ref>
