Shkval is the only Kola-based naval yard capable of accommodating and servicing all modern Russian submarines. Defuelling and refuelling is performed by the Project 326M ship stationed in Polyarny, which was joined in 2000 by the civilian nuclear support ship Imandra.

Shkval is capable of processing three or four nuclear submarines at the same time. The shipyard defuelled and likely dismantled the November class submarine K-5 in 1996. In 1999, the Echo II class submarine K-172 (also designated K-192) was defuelled and dismantled at Shkval. Some early classes of submarines were partly dismantled at Shkval and later towed to Sayda Bay for storage. Currently there are six submarines stationed at Shkval: two November class submarines, one Hotel class submarine, one Echo II class submarine, and the two Victor II class submarines defuelled by Imandra in 2000.
