Asian Shipyards Respond to Arctic Opportunities
The Arctic sea ice has refrozen after a relatively longer summer this year compared with 2011. There are encouraging reports for the shipping industry and it is believed that similar navigation conditions can be expected in the future due to global warming and shrinking of the Arctic ice cap during...
