Центр компетенции по ликвидации аварийных разливов в Арктике The Oil Spill Response Competence Center in the Arctic Арктика обладает огромным природно-ресурс- ным, биологическим, топливно-энергетическим потенциалом, что приводит к росту хозяйствен- ной деятельности в Арктической зоне, а именно к развитию процессов разведки, разработки, добычи, транспортировки природных ресурсов и одновре- менно увеличивает экологические риски арктиче- ских проектов. Именно поэтому при Правлении Ас- социации «Мурманшельф» в июне 2013 года создана рабочая группа по вопросам обеспечения экологи- ческой безопасности и международному сотрудни- честву в области защиты окружающей среды при освоении арктического шельфа. Рабочая группа создана с целью объединения профессиональных и административных ресурсов арктической зоны в области охраны окружающей среды; максимально эффективного использования компетенции для ре- шения вопросов по обеспечению экологической безо- пасности при осуществлении деятельности на ар- ктическомшельфе, включая вопросы международно- го сотрудничества и совместных инициатив.

The Arctic region possesses great amount of natural, biological, fuel and energy resources; it causes two results: first of all, it leads to development of economic activity in the Arctic zone, particularly to development of such processes as prospecting, exploitation, exploration and transportation of the natural resources; then, it increases environmental risks of the Arctic projects. That was the reason for the Board of “Association “Murmanshelf” to create Environmental group for solving various issues on providing ecological safety and international cooperation in the sphere of environmental protection of the Arctic shelf development. Environmental group has been created to unite professional and administrative resources of the Arctic zone in the sphere of environmental protection; to use in the most effective way the competence for solving issues on providing ecological safety during different operations on the Arctic shelf, including international cooperation and common initiatives. Primary goals of Environmental group:  monitoring and harmonization of Russian and international normative legal base;  development and promotion of regional legislative initiative in the sphere of environmental protection in the Barents Euro- Arctic Region;  coordinating professional and administrative cooperation of regional resources initiative in the sphere of environmental protection;  development and support of regional, national and international projects focused on providing ecological safety on the Arctic shelf;  organization and coordination of practical cooperation with professional companies in countries-partners whose activity is directed to providing ecological safety on the Arctic shelf. In this article we want to present you the project initiated by Interdepartmental Environmental Group under the jurisdiction of the Board of “Association of suppliers for oil and gas industry “Murmanshelf” – the Oil Spill Response Competence Center in the Arctic. The aim to establish this center is gathering the information about the best experience how to minimalize the impact of the human factor in prospecting, exploitation, exploration and transportation of the natural resources of the continental shelf in order to prevent emergencies in the Arctic region as well as stimulation of international cooperation in the sphere of developing new technologies for oil spill response in severe Arctic conditions. Directions of the activities of the Center:  estimation of the technologies to collect and recycle oil taking into account such factors as water temperature and its analyses; chemical analyses of oil/ oil product; October 2014 № 2 (25) MurmanshelfInfo 15
