The icebreaker arrived at the edge of pack ice, about 200 miles from Syowa Station on December 31,1980.

The air transport started on January 3,and almost all cargos except fuel were transported to Syowa Station by January 15. The air transport of fuel was accomplished by January 28. The construction works of an information processing building, a MARISAT station, unmanned observatory at West Ongul Island, radio wave receiving antenna and so on were completed by February 3.
