The MT ''Timofey Guzhenko'' ( rus, Тимофей Гуженко) is a Russian
double acting shuttle tanker operated by
Sovcomflot. An icebreaking oil tanker capable of operating independently in level ice, she carries oil from
Varandey Oil Terminal, an ice-strengthened loading tower located from the shore.
The ship is named after
Timofey Guzhenko (1918–2008), the USSR Minister of Merchant Marine in 1970–1986 and one of the founders of the Sovcomflot Group. He was also the leader of the first expedition to reach the
North Pole on board a surface ship, the
nuclear-powered icebreaker ''Arktika'', on 17 August 1977.
