Most, interesting, though, are the belugas visible inside the pens.

A long pier with several zodiacs and small boats goes out in the water. Onshore are two office buildings and one larger hall for equipment or other gear. The pens in the bay, three with a diameter of 16 meters and two with a diameter of 20 meters, are protected from Arctic storms and waves by a headland. Visible on Google Earth’s satellite images here published by the Barents Observer (top photo) are six pens in the waters at Garyachie Ruchy, a small bay about 3,5 kilometers south of Polyarny in the Kola Bay north of Murmansk.

If he was not brought to the area by the Russians, why would he then swim all the way from the Kola Peninsula to Rolvsøya north of Hammerfest before contacting humans? There are many more fishermen villages and settlements in between Russia’s border to Norway and Western Finnmark. What kind of secret underwater installations do Norway have on the coast to the Barents- or Norwegian Seas in the area that could be of interest for Russia’s Main Directorate for Deep Sea Research? Photo: Jørgen Ree Wiig / Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries (Sea Surveillance Service) Spy mission?Ī key question, yet unanswered, is: Was ‘Whaledimir’ really swimming all by himself to the western coast of Finnmark in Norway, or was he brought there on board a submarine or another kind of vessel before he decided to escape from his employer? ‘Whaledimir’ - or Hvaldimir as he is named in Norwegian - can’t find food by himself. They were not visible on any satellite images from 2018 or 2017. The two pens in Olenya Guba have recently been moved there. The vessel on the same pier as the pens is « Yantar» an intelligence vessel that can carry two small submarines, officially said to be used for «deep-sea research and rescue operation». If ‘Whaledimir’ ever was trained for such spy-missions is not known, but the images by Covert Shores clearly link the Russian navy’s marine mammal program to operations of the top secret special purpose submarine unit in Olenya Bay. Last year, the Barents Observer published a longer story about the base and the fleet of spy-submarines, including several small nuclear-powered subs that can sit still on the seafloor. Olenya Bay is home to Russia’s secret special missions submarines, theĢ9th Special Submarine squadron, operated by the Main Directorate for Deep Sea Research, also nicknamed GUGI. Satellite image is courtesy of Covert Shores and shows two pens moored in Olenya Bay. Inside one of the pens is what looks like a beluga whale swimming. This weekend, H I Sutton, a leading expert on Russia’s submarine fleet and known for publishing analysis based on Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) revealed a satellite image on the portal Covert Shores from April this year showing the appearances of two pens moored at a pier in Olenya Guba (Bay) on the Kola Peninsula.

Maybe ‘Whaledimir’ was not at all on an alleged spy mission, but simply escaped from the pens from where he was trained? Petersburg importing from abroad and adjusting different kind of harness for sale. In latin letters, the label on the gear reads ‘Equipment St.

The equipment attached to the whale is now in PST’s possession. Obviously coming from Russia, even Norway’s Police Security Service (PST) started to look into the case, but has still not made any public conclusions about the whale’s origin and, maybe more interesting, which tasks the whale could have by swimming around in Norwegian waters.

Experts say the whale will likely not survive without being fed by humans.

Today the beluga is stripped free from the harness, but is refusing to leave his new life of freedom in Norway. Making big headlines in Norway and around the globe, the locals name him ‘Whaledimir’ (Hvaldimir in Norwegian) after national broadcaster NRK made a poll asking their audience to name the animal. The beluga whale wearing a harness with mounts for a GoPro camera that first was spotted by local fishermen on Norway’s Barents Sea coast in late April is still swimming around in the harbor of Hammerfest.
