Novorossiysk Commercial Sea Port
Novorossiysk Commercial Sea Port (NCSP) is the largest Russian port on the Black Sea coast, located in the city of Novorossiysk in Krasnodar Krai. It serves as a primary hub for exporting crude oil and petroleum products, as well as containerised and bulk cargoes. The controlling stake is held by a group of companies linked to Russian state structures and businessman Arkady Rotenberg. Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the port has been targeted repeatedly by Ukrainian drone strikes.
