Houston, TX - ATC 2018 – Speakers and audience during morning technical sessions at the Arctic Technology Conference, an OTC event, at the Hilton Americas on Wednesday, 7 November 2018. Marine arctic operations greatly depend on knowledge of the environment; specifically ice conditions and metocean conditions. Both require accurate real-time information and reliable forecasting. Further developing the ice cover image technology, improving the models of sea ice dynamics and coupled models for ice and weather forecasting are critical for both ice operation and ice technology development. This new information and tools will contribute to efficiency and safety of Arctic shipping and offshore structure operations. New data on ice and ice formations properties, icing, materials for ice are important for new technology development and design optimization as well.
Session Chairpersons: Thomas Krzewinski, Golder Associates; Benny Poedjono, Schlumberger
