Offshore drilling for oil in the Beaufort Sea : a preliminary environmental assessment / A.R. Milne & B.D. Smiley.: En3-6/39E-PDF

"Drilling for oil using ice-strengthened drill ships is proposed for ice-free periods starting in the summer of 1976 at two sites. These sites, shown in Figure l, are inaccessible during the winter and spring to any existing drilling systems. The scale of activities for 1976 is small, therefore the only really major impact on the environment would result from oil discharged into the sea in the event of an underwater blowout. Although the possibility of a blowout occurring is remote, it cannot be ignored"--Introduction.
