Sea Traffic Management in the Arctic Why – What – How
Reducing the risk of collisions […] requires a monitoring system that provides continual and proactive decision-making support for navigators. MattiasRust, Maritime Officer at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). http://www.sjofartsverket.se/mice
Action: … • Analyse the Arctic operating environment and security arrangements from the perspective of comprehensive concept of security, and develop shared situation awareness. http://vnk.fi/julkaisukansio/2013/j-14-arktinen-15-arktiska-16-arctic-17-saame/PDF/en.pdf
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. http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/marinesecurity/initiatives-391.htm,
Development towards increased shipping in Arctic waters involves agreater 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… http://www.government.se/content/1/c6/16/78/59/3baa039d.pdf
In order to meet the greatest number of requirement drivers and supportsustainable 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… http://www.cmts.gov/downloads/CMTS_Arctic_MTS_Report_Narrative.pdf
Whatissituationalawareness? • Traffic situation – who is where
Whatissituationalawareness? • Traffic situation – who is where • Intentions • Follow-upAwareness needsto beforward-looking! And that’s Sea Traffic Management…

Whoneedsthis Arctic forward-lookingawareness? • Cargoowners and passengers • Shipping companies • Insurance companies • Maritimeauthorities…

Doesforward-lookingawarenessin the Arctic pose a challange? • It’sremote • It’sharsh • Communications areunreliable and expensive… (Or not. We’ll come back tothat.)
Forward-lookingawareness • Earlywarnings • Corrective action • Breakingchainsof events! Butonlyifwecan do itin real(ish)time!
By the way, what is real(ish)time? Well, wewent over the top: • 15 sec. – 3 min. update intervals • 3-5 sec. latency • 0,04 % downtime > 6 min. IcebreakerOden’s 28 dayjourney Sweden – Greenland and back, August 2013.
The business case, today • Leasing-price, all inclusive:30-50 USD/day(50 % ofwhich is data trafficcosts - Iridium)
The business case, tomorrow • Substantialcostreduction potential • Route exchange and messagingstandard in nav equipment (MONALISA) • Sharingofcommunicationlink (LRIT and SSIS requirements)
The business case, future • Satellite AIS • Real(er) timemonitoring(today: no 24/7 satellitecoverage) • Shorterlatency(today: aiming at 30 minutes) • Satellite VHF? Commsto the ship?
The business case, upside Example
The business case, upside • LNG from Melkøyato Yokohama • NSR instead of Suez • Full roundvoyage - Spot market rate, including NSR fees • Savings USD 8 264 000 Source: http://chnl.no/publish_files/Henrik_Falck.pdf
The business case, upside In conclusion: Savings: 8 million USD/round-trip Minus 30 to 50 USD/day(present onboardcostestimates, MICE) = Still 8 million USD
Butwhatabout 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’sof the Arctic coastalstates
Take-away #1 WHY? Arctic shipping must be Safe and Environmental, Efficient and Economical.
Take-away #2 HOW? MICE bringsforward-lookingawarenesstoremoteplaces. Today.
Take-away #3 THE COSTS? Right on the money!
