Minimum sea ice extent and its implications


The changes
The North East Passage has been open since 2008 (a.k.a. Northern Sea Route) 34 ships went through the NE passage in 2011, over 70 expected in 2012 The North West Passages northern route has been open since 2010. 22 vessels passed through in 2011 compared to 69 in the first 100 years from 1906 to 2005. We can expect to see more commercial shipping in the NW passage in the next few years. All Arctic nations are now looking at improving emergency preparedness and search and rescue capacity.

Summary
The Arctic activity is increasing
Existing Gravity Based Structure (GBS) platform solutions can be used in up to 100 meters of water depth New re-floatable GBS platforms are being developed for exploration in heavy ice Floating options exist for mild ice conditions Subsea technology improvement allows 3 phase flow over 145 km to avoid floating production New technology is being developed to explore and produce in harsh ice conditions
