Abstract The article presents the author’s opinion on the development of Arctic territories in the circumstances of the 4th industrial revolution. The main tools of the new technological structure being introduced in the northern territories are reviewed. The leading role of oil and gas companies in the promotion of technologies and tools of the new industrial paradigm in a number of Arctic regions of the Russian Federation is remarked. The inevitability of changing the Arctic development perception from an ecological catastrophe to the careful and sustainable development of Arctic spaces using the modern achievements of the Technological Revolution 4.0 is indicated.
