IN THE
ARCTIC

SEA TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
IN THE
ARCTIC
WHY – WHAT – HOW
Is situational awareness in
the Arctic vital?
Reducing the risk of collisions […]
requires a monitoring system that
provides continual and proactive
decision-making support for
navigators.
Mattias Rust, Maritime Officer at the
World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

Action:
…
• Analyse the Arctic operating
environment and security
arrangements from the perspective of
comprehensive concept of security,
and develop shared situation
awareness.

With more activities in the Arctic, there
is an increasing need to monitor and
understand how such activities affect
the security of Canada’s marine
transportation system. Situational
awareness is key to decision-making,
not only for security purposes but also
for safety, environmental and
economic reasons.

Development towards increased
shipping in Arctic waters involves a
greater risk for accidents… Greater
awareness of traffic at sea, in the air
and on land helps to reduce the risks
of accidents. Active efforts in terms of
preventive measures, surveillance and
rapid accident response can reduce
the risks…

In order to meet the greatest number
of requirement drivers and support
sustainable Arctic growth safely, the
CMTS recommends that the United
States make it a priority [to] support
maritime domain awareness, for
vessel monitoring and vessel
management schemes…

What is situational awareness?
•Traffic situation – who is where
What is situational awareness?
•Traffic situation – who is where
•Intentions
•Follow-up
Awareness needs to be
forward-looking!
And that’s Sea Traffic Management…
Sea Traffic Management – the movie:

Who needs this Arctic
forward-looking awareness?
•Cargo owners and passengers
•Shipping companies
•Insurance companies
•Maritime authorities…
…some captains…

…and these guys!

Does forward-looking
awareness in the Arctic
pose a challange?
•It’s remote
•It’s harsh
•Communications are unreliable and
expensive… (Or not. We’ll come back to that.)
Forward-looking awareness
- Early warnings
- Corrective action
- Breaking chains of events!
But only if we can do it
in real(ish)time!
By the way, what is real(ish)time?
Well, we went over the top:
•15 sec. – 3 min. update intervals
•3-5 sec. latency
•0,04 % downtime > 6 min.
Icebreaker Oden’s 28 day journey Sweden –
Greenland and back, August 2013.
The business case, today
•Leasing-price, all inclusive:
30-50 USD/day
(50 % of which is data traffic costs - Iridium)
The business case, tomorrow
•Substantial cost reduction potential
– Route exchange and messaging
standard in nav equipment
(MONALISA)
– Sharing of communication link
(LRIT and SSIS requirements)
The business case, future
•Satellite AIS
– Real(er) time monitoring
(today: no 24/7 satellite coverage)
– Shorter latency
(today: aiming at 30 minutes)
•Satellite VHF? Comms to the ship?
The business case, upside
The business case, upside
•LNG from Melkøya to Yokohama
•NSR instead of Suez
•Full roundvoyage - Spot market rate,
including NSR fees
•Savings USD 8 264 000

The business case, upside
In conclusion:
Savings: 8 million USD/round-trip
Minus 30 to 50 USD/day
(present onboard cost estimates, MICE)
= Still 8 million USD
But what about the § ?
Article 234 of UNCLOS, ice-covered areas:
In such areas, coastal states have the right
to adopt and enforce non-discriminatory
laws and regulations for the prevention,
reduction and control of marine pollution
from vessels within the limits of the
exclusive economic zone (EEZ).
So, let’s come together…
EEZ’s of the Arctic
coastal states
Take-away #1
WHY?
Arctic shipping must be
Safe and Environmental,
Efficient and Economical.
Take-away #2
HOW?
MICE brings forwardlooking awareness to
remote places. Today.
Take-away #3
THE COSTS?
Right on the money!
Thank
You!
