In the Arctic it is all about infrastructure!
Storage in Murmansk
9 Days to the Bering Strait!
ARCTIC RAILWAY ROVANIEMI-KIRKENES

Many projects whic should be coordinated
The Kola Peninsula and Northern Norway form an all-year ice free wedge into the Arctic – a natural platform for serving logistics in the Barents Sea and the
remaining Arctic
Several Arctics; geographical, climatical and demographical conditions vary widely – one
size does not fit all!
INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AS CATALYST:Kirkenes Industrial Logistics Area - KILA.
1.000.000 m² area and 600 m deep water quays.

Serving a wide variety of vessels and cargoes generating savings in time, cost and emissions; large tankers, bulkcarriers, LNG, reefer heavylift, multipurpose and offshore .
Turns a Freight Disadvantage into an Advantage
“China Begins Using Arctic Shipping Route That Could 'Change The Face Of World Trade‘
China is eyeing the Arctic for better access to resources.”
.What does it imply in practice? It means that we for the first time receive requests as the following:
3/ Furthermore, mv. Yong Sheng will be available to ship general Cargo from Baltic ports or a European ports to FarEast via Arctic Ocean with LayCan 25th Aug. to 5th Sep. 2015. Your company are welcome to book your Eastbound general Cargo with Cosfim Oy. The ocean freight rate could be discussed amicably
•Below pls find the info about shipping service by mv Yong Sheng. · •Flag: HONG KONG (CHINA) Build: 2002 Home port: HONG KONG Possible LAYCAN: 25TH AUG. TO 5TH Sep. 2015•Name: YONG SHENG•Type: GENERAL CARG Summer DWT: 19150 t Gross Tonnage: 14357 THIS IS GREAT NEWS!
Transport of oil, gas, minerals and equipment by:
• Specialised shuttle multipurpose vessels
• Shuttle tankers
• Shuttle LNG carriers
• Shuttle bulkers
• Purpose built offshore vessels
• Seasonal liner services
NP
In the medium term – regional destinational shipping serving the developments in Siberia and Alaska will be the most relevant activities. Suitable transshipment infrastructure is a pre-requisite.
WHERE RIVERS MEET OCEAN THERE IS NORMALLY A PORT
THIS PROBABLY REPRESENTS THE LARGEST FUTURE POTENTIAL FOR TRANSPORTATION ALONG THE NSR
Yamal LNG - LNG carrier new building orders
Export of gravel from Kirkenes to Sabetta on the Yamal Peninsula
500 000 tonsin 2014
Continuing in 2015
Ship to Ship
HonningsvågNorth Cape
Alaska?
Oil terminals and transshipment of oil
The same could be done on the Pacific side.
ADAK
Why?
Because Asian refineries buy European crude and there is a market in Europe for Asian refined products
We have seen this cross trade along the NSR and under the right market conditions it will continue.
The logistics principle remains the same; keep the specialized tonnagein the ice and transship as close to the ice border as you can.
Oil and Oil Products
Dutch Harbor
Frozen Fish
•100 000 tons of mackerel from Norway to the Far East
•100 000 tons of haddoc from Dutch Harbor, Alaska to the Continent
•17 days saved both directions. 34 days saved on a round voyage.
•Frozen fish going in both directions.
•Refrigerated storage in Nome in addition to Dutch Harbor???
Russian sanctions on import of fish creates a need for new markets
Frozen Fish
10 days
11days
Offshore
Korea –Bering Strait - Alaska 11 days
Kirkenes - Bering Strait 10 days
The North Sea is the second largest off-shore market in the world moving north towards the Barents Sea.
Russia starting in Kara Sea, Bay of Ob, moving towardsLaptev and Chukchi Sea. Not to forget Sakhalin and Okhotsk.
Alaska North Slope and Chukchi Sea.
The NSR will offer tremendous savings in moving equipment between the Alaskan, Russian and Norwegian markets
Offshore Rigs and Supply vessels
SHIPPING SUMMARY
There will be an increase in traffic for sure:
LNG and CondensateOil and Oil productsMinerals and metalsSupplies, equipment and structures related to the oil, gas and mining industriesFish
We do not believe in big volume container business.
Significant development: The launch of the COSCO NSR Line
The Arctic: Where Gas meets Ore
The Barents region – potential for industrial value creation
Alaska is in the same situation
Associated or “stranded” gas can be transported as CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) directly from the offshore installations to be used for low emission industrial processing of regional rawmaterials employing natural gas instead of coal eg. Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) production
This requires the offshore oil and gas and onshore mineral and metal producers to join forces with processing industries.
Political will is a prerequisite for incentivising the stakeholders into realising these joint opportunities.
Some potential gas and mineral and metal based processing potential
• Iron (Direct Reduced Iron)• Carbon Black (high purity carbon
materials)• Petrochemical industries• Quarts to silicon - potential for Direct
Reduction to solar grade quality• New refining and agglomeration methods
for quality upgrading

Vision
THOUGHTS ON EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND COOPERATION – JOINT NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURE
• The best safety measure against accidents is the Russian mandatory ice breaker escort and regulatory requirements.
• The Arctic Council agreement on developing a joint framework for SAR is important as these countries are the ones with an interest in developing the resources of the region while keeping potential negative effects at a minimum ie. sustainable development.
• The increased economic activity in the region will improve the general preparedness to respond to potential accidents due to higher availability of vessels, equipment and people provided necessary coordination is facilitated.
