UTC Offset: UTC +11 |
Sakhalin Time (SAKT) operates at UTC+11 year-round and is used across Sakhalin Oblast, Russia's largest island region located in the Far East. Sometimes called "Sakhalin Standard Time," SAKT does not observe daylight saving time and provides a stable and reliable time reference for the island's government, industry, and community life.
Importance and Global Use of SAKT
Sakhalin Time (SAKT) is essential for coordinating public administration, transport, energy production, and fishing operations across Sakhalin Island. With a consistent UTC+11 offset, it helps maintain smooth daily scheduling in a region known for its oil, gas, and maritime economy, ensuring reliable service delivery and infrastructure management.
On a global scale, SAKT supports international trade, shipping, and travel connections with neighboring countries like Japan and other parts of the Pacific Rim. Its alignment with other UTC+11 time zones simplifies cooperation, strengthens Sakhalin's role in regional commerce, and supports Russian Far East development strategies.
