Exploration and production concepts and projects for the Arctic offshore

The search for hydrocarbons in the Arctic offshore has increased substantially in the last 15 years. The presence of large ice features separates the systems required in the Arctic from those available for other offshore areas. The ice environment and the interaction between ice and proposed explora...
