A review of existing knowledge regarding how to manage ice during offshore work in cold
waters has been carried out. The objective has been to contribute to increased safety and …

This paper presents field results and analysis of iceberg towing experiments performed in
the Barents and Kara seas in 2016–2017. Influence of oscillations during the towing process …

Iceberg drift forecasting is challenging. Large uncertainties in iceberg geometry and in
iceberg driving forces–current, wind and waves–make accurate forecasts difficult. In this …

The paper presents the results of experimental iceberg towing operations performed in ice
fields during the early stages of ice formation. Experiments were conducted in October 2017 …

Glacial ice features in the northern and central Barents Sea may threaten ships and offshore
structures. Particularly, small glacial ice features, which are difficult to detect and manage by …

Bohai is a typical marginal oil field in an ice region, where most of the oil and gas platforms
are economical. Sea ice is the main factor that affects the safety of oil and gas platforms in …

Short-term iceberg drift prediction is challenging. Large uncertainties in the driving forces–
current, wind and waves–usually prevent accurate forecasts. Recently several statistical …

This article continues a series of scientific publications on results of iceberg defense
research carried out by Rosneft Oil Company in 201Б-2017 in the seas of Russian Arctic …

An input estimation problem to distinguish between an oscillating and a non-oscillating input
is considered. This problem can be encountered in marine motion estimation problems. In …
