          management services are sought
          by many customers, and Belomor-
          trans’ software products are exactly
          the tool to meet their need. With in-
          ternally developed software, proven
          processes and highly skilled profes-
          sionals, we boasted a strong competi-
          tive edge to last us for years.
             In 2016, we started an office in
          Ust-Kut, Irkutsk Oblast. This region
          owes its huge industrial logistics po-
          tential to a number of major mining
          projects run by Gazprom (Power of
          Siberia), Irkutsk Oil Company, and
          Rosneft. Here, the key transport ser-
          vice segments are winter roadways
          and ESPO oil pipeline.
             The next step in our develop-
          ment was marked by becoming the
          contractor general for Novatek’s
          Kola Shipyard construction project
          in Murmansk in 2018, to which we
          were providing forwarding servic-
          es. In that same year, we launched
          a rebranding campaign to enhance
          our logistics market communication
          policy based on our experience and
          specialization. Unlike our domestic
          partners and colleagues, the exter-
          nal contractors were unaware of our
          new specialization as a service pro-  tailored to industrial logistics mar-  from the employees and customers.
