Winterization Guidelines for Vessels Operating in Arctic Waters
Marine transportation from the Arctic will pose new challenges to the design and operation of vessels. Many technology innovations are being studied and implemented to respond to these challenges, and extensive research and development is needed for managing risk associated with operating oil and ga...

Marine transportation from the Arctic will pose new challenges to the design and operation of vessels. Many technology innovations are being studied and implemented to respond to these challenges, and extensive research and development is needed for managing risk associated with operating oil and gas carriers in the Arctic. Year-round carriage by sea will place extreme challenges on the ships and their crews. This paper discusses those ship design and operation challenges for this trade. There are two related perspectives of this paper: • Winterization of vessels operating in the arctic environment • Implications for design, winterization, and operations due to the needs of humans operating under arctic conditions.
