| Description |
The objective was to assess the
current knowledge of ice buildup on offshore structures in Arctic and other cold regions;
determine the extent of the problem; review current technology for mitigating; and make
recommendations for new approaches and additional research. Using industry sources, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Cold
Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory's on-line data base searches and visits to
sites of known icing, the current knowledge of ice buildup on oil and gas operational
facilities will be determined. A report will be prepared detailing the findings, proposing
solutions, and recommending additional research, if applicable. |
