Ostrovnoy ( Russian: Островно́й), previously known as Murmansk-140 (Му́рманск-140), [6] is a closed town in Murmansk Oblast, Russia. As of the 2010 Census, its population was 2,171; [2] down from 5,032 recorded in the 2002 Census. [7]
The first naval base was established here in 1915.[ citation needed] There is no rail link to Ostrovnoy and the settlement is reachable by coastal ship, helicopter or small plane in winter.[ citation needed]
Until 1938, the town was known as Yokanga. Until 1981,[ citation needed] the town was known as Gremikha. [8]
The Gremikha Naval Base was one of the Northern Fleet's main facilities for servicing nuclear submarines. [9] [10]
Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, together with six rural localities, incorporated as the closed administrative-territorial formation of Ostrovnoy—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.
