Maritime transportation of oil and gas in Arctic areas will increase in the future. Safe and reliable operation in cold climate will therefore become of vital importance, especially since this area is often classified as sensitive.

Through several R&D initiatives and support activities, we are now sharing this valuable knowledge and experience with our clients.
