Narrative:
Briefed ILS approach runway 23 as per SOP's. Landing uneventful with touchdown 1000-1200 ft point, braking action good. Decelerated to slow taxi speed at which time tower advised us to use next link for runway exit. While exiting at link 5 and completing the turn on centerline, I encountered nil braking with aircraft slowly moving laterally off right edge of taxiway. We stopped very gently with nose slightly right of taxiway sideline. Notified tower that aircraft immobile and a tow would be necessary. Several items worth noting: 1) spray truck deiced link 5 in order for men and equipment to work in safety. 2) air carrier station manager advised me that, because of numerous ramp incidents, the airport authority/authorized planned to return to the use of vrea instead of present fluid. In this situation, we were first aircraft to land, no field condition provided and no txwys were deiced. Supplemental information from acn 260071: briefed ILS approach runway 23, including using L-7 for exiting runway. Before the men and equipment were able to reach the aircraft, it was necessary for them to deice L-5. It took 4 hours to move the aircraft back onto taxiway. Temperature was 1 degree C. It had rained earlier and was reported wet runway. Perhaps ice should have been suspected. Also, perhaps we should have questioned exiting L-5 but we did not.

Title: AN ACR WDB SLID OFF THE SIDE OF AN ICY TXWY.
Narrative: BRIEFED ILS APCH RWY 23 AS PER SOP'S. LNDG UNEVENTFUL WITH TOUCHDOWN 1000-1200 FT POINT, BRAKING ACTION GOOD. DECELERATED TO SLOW TAXI SPD AT WHICH TIME TWR ADVISED US TO USE NEXT LINK FOR RWY EXIT. WHILE EXITING AT LINK 5 AND COMPLETING THE TURN ON CTRLINE, I ENCOUNTERED NIL BRAKING WITH ACFT SLOWLY MOVING LATERALLY OFF R EDGE OF TXWY. WE STOPPED VERY GENTLY WITH NOSE SLIGHTLY R OF TXWY SIDELINE. NOTIFIED TWR THAT ACFT IMMOBILE AND A TOW WOULD BE NECESSARY. SEVERAL ITEMS WORTH NOTING: 1) SPRAY TRUCK DEICED LINK 5 IN ORDER FOR MEN AND EQUIP TO WORK IN SAFETY. 2) ACR STATION MGR ADVISED ME THAT, BECAUSE OF NUMEROUS RAMP INCIDENTS, THE ARPT AUTH PLANNED TO RETURN TO THE USE OF VREA INSTEAD OF PRESENT FLUID. IN THIS SIT, WE WERE FIRST ACFT TO LAND, NO FIELD CONDITION PROVIDED AND NO TXWYS WERE DEICED. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FROM ACN 260071: BRIEFED ILS APCH RWY 23, INCLUDING USING L-7 FOR EXITING RWY. BEFORE THE MEN AND EQUIP WERE ABLE TO REACH THE ACFT, IT WAS NECESSARY FOR THEM TO DEICE L-5. IT TOOK 4 HRS TO MOVE THE ACFT BACK ONTO TXWY. TEMP WAS 1 DEG C. IT HAD RAINED EARLIER AND WAS RPTED WET RWY. PERHAPS ICE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SUSPECTED. ALSO, PERHAPS WE SHOULD HAVE QUESTIONED EXITING L-5 BUT WE DID NOT.
