Tiksi Airport Arctic Aviation Fuel Station

Fuel Station

This isolated fuel station sits at Tiksi Airport, serving the tiny Arctic settlement of Tiksi on the Laptev Sea coast. The depot primarily handles aviation fuel but maintains diesel and gasoline for the few vehicles operating in this extreme northern outpost. Fuel availability can be sporadic during winter months when supply flights are grounded.

Access requires crossing the frozen Lena River delta or waiting for the brief summer barge season. The station operates irregularly — call ahead if possible. This is your last fuel for hundreds of miles if heading toward the New Siberian Islands research stations.
