MSV Nordica is a Finnish multipurpose icebreaker and offshore support vessel. Built in 1994 by Finnyards in Rauma, Finland, and operated by Arctia Offshore, she and her sister ship Fennica were the first Finnish icebreakers designed to be used as escort icebreakers in the Baltic Sea during the winter months and in offshore construction projects during the open water season.
When Botnica was sold to Port of Tallinn in 2012, Nordica became again the newest icebreaker in service in Finland until the delivery of the new icebreaker, Polaris, in 2016.
