About Danbjørn

HDMS Danbjørn (sometimes referred to as Danbjoern) was a Danish icebreaker built for breaking and reporting ice in the sea for Danish Ice Service in 1965. Originally operated by the Ministry of Industrial Affairs, it was incorporated into the Royal Danish Navy on January 1, 1996. Danbjørn was crewed by naval personnel throughout its history. The ship's mission was to assist shipping to and from Danish ports among these the most important supply and export ports, during ice conditions in the Danish waters within the Skaw. The shipping was assisted as close as possible to their port of destination where the remaining icebreaking is taken over by the port’s own icebreaking resources. Assistance is given according to the following priority: Ships in distress. Ships transporting live animals. Ships transporting passengers. Ships transporting cargoes of special importance. All ships in need.
