(NSI News Source Info) SOCHI - September 21, 2008: Russian transportation group Fesco is bidding in a tender announced by U.S. oil major Exxon to build icebreakers worth a total of $300 million, Fesco's president said on Friday.
Yevgeny Ambrosov said Fesco, the largest operator of icebreakers in the Russian Far East, has filed a preliminary bid for the tender and plans to use borrowed funds to finance the project.
