Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 30, 2003.

The arms show an oil rig for the oil found in the region. The seagull refers to the coastal area, the sun to the Eastern part of the country. The base shows a folk ornament of the Nivkhs - one of the Russian nationalities.

The arms are based on a design for the city of Okha from 1993, see there.
