Am 4. September 2013 verunglückte der Küstentanker Nordvik in der Matisen-Straße (östliche Karasee) mit einer Eisscholle. Russische Medien berichteten, dass der Zusammenstoß ein Loch in einen der Ballasttanks des Einhüllentankers gerissen hat. Der Tanker hatte knapp 5000 Tonnen Dieselöl geladen. Die Nordvik hat eine Eisklasse für leichten Eisgang. Nach Medienberichten soll die Eisdrift zum Zeitpunkt des Unfalls aber als "medium" eingestuft worden sein.

A report by the Northern Sea Route Administration says that the Nordvik was sailing from Ob Bay to Khatanga with 4,944 tons of diesel fuel when it ran into ice in the Matisen Strait. The Nordvik sustained damage to one her ballast tanks and was taking on water, but the ingress was stopped after crews plugged the hole.
