ICE CONDITIONS
Alternative scenario cyclic character of changes. In the next 5-10 years air
temperature will remain elevated, with a gradual decrease of it to 2015-2020 years.
Lowering of the air temperature will last until mid 30's and 40's, then one should expect
the transition to the next warming. Beginning now a cooling will be similar to that which
was recorded in the 40-50 years of XX century. Increased area of ice cover and,
consequently, the prevalence of heavy ice conditions, is expected in the period from 20s
to 40s years. Sea ice extent will reach its maximum between 2030 to 2035.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
VIEW FROM INDUSTRY
The best safety measure against accidents is the 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.
WARNING the development of the shorter transportation (= reduced
emissions) via the NSR can be stopped in its infancy if too costly
regulations are imposed for example through the IMO Polar Code
requirements eg. Ban on HFO.

NATIONAL LEGISLATION
Article 234
Coastal States have the right to adopt and enforce nondiscriminatory laws and regulations for the prevention, reduction and
control of marine pollution from vessels in ice-covered areas within
the limits of the exclusive economic zone, where particularly severe
climatic conditions and the presence of ice covering such areas for
most of the year create obstructions or exceptional hazards to
navigation, and pollution of the marine environment could cause
major harm to or irreversible disturbance of the ecological balance.
Such laws and regulations shall have due regard to navigation and
the protection and preservation of the marine environment based on
the best available scientific evidence.

The official long-term ice forecast and subsequent updates are an essential aspect for the
organization of navigation on the NSR. Permission to sail through various sub-areas of the
NSR and the need for icebreaker support is determined on the basis of the ice conditions.

CONCLUSION
THE CURRENT FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR 4-5 MONTHS OF THE YEAR ARE NOT YET
SUFFICIENT FOR THE FORMATION OF NEW PERMANENT TRANSIT TRAFFIC FLOWS.
NO CONTAINER LINES WILL MAKE SHEDULES FOR 5 MONTHS OF THE YEAR AS THEY
WILL LOSE THE BIG PORTS LIKE SINGAPORE, INDIA, MIDDLE EAST AND
MEDITERRANEAN ON THEIR WAY TO EUROPE.
NSR WILL REMAIN A NICHE (ARCTIC) IN A SEGMENT (ICE) OF THE MARKET BUT AS
CALCULATIONS HAVE SHOWN IT CAN BE A VERY INTERESTING NICHE.
THE OBJECTIVE IS THAT THE NSR WILL BE CONSIDERED A SAFE AND PREDICTABLE
COMMERCIAL ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL ROUTES DURING THE ICE FREE SEASON.
