THE BLACK SEA DANUBE STEAM NAVIGATION CO

AND

THE RUSSIAN DANUBE STEAM NAVIGATION CO. 1903 - 1920 .


by P. WARNECK (BNRA/Brussels).

In the frame work of her policy of expansion in the Balkans end towards Constantinople end also in order to liberate the Slav Christians of the Balkans from Ottoman rule Russia waged war against Turkey in I877-~8. By the Treaty of Berlin (1878) Russia recovered Bessarabia (which she had lost after the Crimean War) end the borders of Russia ware, once again, established on the Pruth end the Lower Danube~ rivers. Further, Rumania and Serbia (which had been autonomous Principalities for some 20 years) became independent states, thus breaking off all allegiance to the Porte, end Bulgaria obtained autonomous status but was in fact quasi independent.

In 1881 Prince Gagarin, established a service of steamers from Odessa to Ismail end the other Russian ports on the Lower Danube.

In 1883 the Russian Government decided to subsidize the line since it was an asset to Russian presence and influence in Bulgaria, Rumania end Serbia. One of the conditions set by the anthooties was the extension of the service to Sistovo (Bulgaria).

In 1886 the venture became a limited company, under the name of the BLACK SEA DANUBE Steamship Co. , with a capital of 1.200.000 rubbles (equiv. to $ 600.000) in 1880.

The development of the line was no easy task since its means ware rather limited and also because it encountered strong competition from Austro-Hungarian end Rumanian companies (also subsidized by their respective Government~.) as wall as from small Greek ship owners with low operating costs (the Danube had been declared an international waterway in 1856 end all countries whether riparian or not, enjoyed apral navigation rights).

To help the Company, the Russian Government bought up (in 1891) the new .shares, which corresponded to an extension of I million rubbles of the firm's capital, on the condition that a representative of the Ministry of Finance would henceforth have a seat on the board of directors.

However the Company's business remained far from prosperous end Government help had to be extended. In 1891 a special subsidy was given to acquire a ship, to establish a line across the Black See from Batum (Caucasus) to Galatz (Rumania). The purpose of this new line was to foster the export of petroleum from the Caucasian oilfields to Europe via the Danube.

In spite of increased Government help the Company kept on losing money end it even became apparent that it would have to be wound up.

For the practical reasons stated above, the Russian Government then decided take over the Company end to run the services itself. An Imperial Decree of .March 23rd. I9�3 set up the RUSSIAN DANUBE STEAr1 NAVIGATION Co. as e State concern. The ships end share establishments of the former Company ware taken over.

A period of expansion now set in :
-new units, better suited to service on the Danube end the Black Sea, were acquired.
- the shore establishments (warehouses) ware enlarged at the main ports of call out side Russia's; at Sistovo (Bulgaria) end Kladovo (Serbia) petrol storage tanks were built.
- a ship repairing and servicing yard was set up at Reni (situated at. the confluence of the Pruth end Danube Rivers).

-the number of lighters was considerably increased by having large iron units (of same 900 ton burthen) end tankers built.

In 1913 the Company ran the following regular services:
- Nikolaev to Odessa end Odessa to Galatz (with two modern passenger ships).
- Odessa to Sistovo with one passenger end cargo vessel ).
- Reni to Kledovo (with 4 paddle steamers towing trains of barges and lighter-tankers)
- Reni to Odessa (with trains of towed lighters-sometimes as many as 20 et a time. ~~
The main commodity transported on this line was wheat from Bessarabia which was sent to Odessa for export, mainly to Western Europe. This wheat was collected along the Pruth by smaIl barges (towed by small tugs and, at tirnss, by bullock teams).
- Akkerman (on the Dniestr) to Odessa (mainly with wheat) .
- A number of services between points on the Lower Danube
- A cargo service along the Southern coast of the Black Sea from Galatz to Batum,
via Bulgarian. and Turkish ports.

When Serbia was invaded by Austria-Hungary et the outbreak of the first World War
, she was isolated from the other Allies, having no land frontiers with any country of the Entente and as Rumania remained neutral (until August 1916), Russia could not send arms end supplies
over the Rumanian railway net. However the Danube international waterway, .remained open.

The R.D.S.N.'s ships end lighters were requisitioned and, together with a number of units from other Russian river flotillas, it became part of a military organisation known as "EON" under
the commend of Captain Veselago, Imperial Russian Navy, his assistant Ermakov had been the General manager of R.D.S.N. in peace time end he soon proved to be an excellent organizer..
Since the Austro-Hungarian Navy maintained a strong flotilla on the Danube monitors, gunboats, etc.) the Russian merchant ships end lighters were formed into convoys of same 2f.1 to 25 units escorted by armed steamers end two armoured motor launches. To allay the Rumanian protests against this infringement of their mentality, the armoured launches were fictitiously sold to the
R.D.S.N., the Russian Naval ensign being replaced by the Russian merchant flag.

During the closing months of 1914 five convoys ware run through bringing the beleaguered Serbian Army substantial assistance: same 115.000 rifles, ammunition, mines (to be used against Austrian Shipping on the Danube end the Sava), torpedo tubes end. torpedoes (together with specialized personnel from the Imperial Russian Navy ) and a battalion of Russian
Army engineers
.
These convoys came to an end when Bulgaria sided with the Central Powers (Oct. 1915). Serbia was then truly :isolated from her allies.

During 1916 and 19I7 the R.D.S.N. units ware most useful in tackling with the logistics problems of the Russian end (later) Rumanian troops operating on the Lower Danube.

After the withdrawal of the Russian troops from the region (a consequence of the Revolution end of the Treaty of Brest-Litowsk), the shore establishments end a number of the Company's vessels ware seized by the advancing Austro-Hungarian Army. After Austria-Hungary's collapse, in late 1918, these assets ware taken over by the Rumanians.

Same of the larger steamers served with the White Russian Army of Generals Denikin end Wrangel during the Civil War end assisted in the evacuation of Odessa end Sebastopol in 1920. These units were later sold abroad.
