Arctic represents the last frontier for conventional Oil & Gas exploration and may contain up to 1/5th of the worlds yet-to-find resources
In excess of 200 billion barrels (OE) already discovered:
- Majority of this in West Siberia & Alaska
- New access opportunities in West & East Greenland, Norwegian & Russian Barents
- Independent view of resource potential and oil/gas distribution proposed
Some key recent activity in the region:
- Cairn reported oil discovery off Disko Island (Sept 2010), West Greenland likely to increase interest
- Norway-Russia agreement to settle median line dispute in Barents Sea, Sept 2010
- Statoil announce significant new discoveries in Norwegian Barents
- East Greenland licence round 2012 & 2013
- ExxonMobil announce joint venture with Rosneft in the South Kara Sea (Aug 2011)
