ARCTIC R&D IN NEWFOUNDLAND

摘要

Arctic research and development (R&D) is fundamental to the safe and economic development of the region. Companies are allocating funds to expand international knowledge about arctic conditions, improve the understanding of material behavior, advance analytical techniques, promote wider acceptance of progressive design philosophies, and implement reliable arctic operational strategies that will enable additional offshore arctic prospects to be developed. With this backdrop, it is no surprise that research efforts are expanding in Newfoundland as the region works to enhance its reputation as a center of excellence for ocean technologies.
