Sheesh : The Last Refuge ! If a spill occurs here it'll be at least as catastrophic, not least cos burning fuel could help thaw permafrost and its storage of gases released. And the environment is not the cosy warmth of the Gulf. Trade in deep water and hurricanes for snow snow ice snow and blizzards where metals struggle, never mind personnel.....
