Michael Borrell (SVp Continental Europe and Central asia, total E&p) the total adventure in the arctic Robert Blaauw (Senior advisor global arctic theme, Shell) 2012 a pivotal Year for arctic oil and gas Technical Sessions EEr, Emissions, Discharge and Safety Codes and Standards ice Surveys and Detection Panels: Flow Assurance Challenges and Arctic Production I & II Co-chairs: norman F. Carnahan and annie audibert-Hayet arctic temperatures are much colder than the deepest of deepwater projects. this poses special challenges insofar as fluids are concerned. these sessions will address some of the special fluidsrelated problems for development of oil and gas resources in the arctic region. Discussion will encompass challenges and issues related to the entire spectrum of reservoir development, fluid-solid phase behavior, rheology, hydrates, waxes, production system design and operation, production chemistry and additives, drilling fluids, transportation and storage of petroleum and related fluids exposed to extreme cold temperatures of the arctic.
