The Arctic contains a wealth of resources, and is believed to hold more than 20 percent of the world's undiscovered oil and gas. Canada encompasses a large share of arctic landmass and the longest coastline in the world, much of it in the arctic regions. There are vast resources, including oil, gas and metallic reserves in the northern areas. Canada has developed a Northern Strategy as a part of national policy. Promoting economic development, protecting the environment and assertion of sovereignty are important objectives. Development of Canada's north implies the economic exploitation of natural resources, including those offshore. The present application focuses on the development of technology to design facilities for safe offshore development, including structures and ships. Safety in this context refers to safety of human life and of the environment. The implication is that structural systems, the main focus of the present application, be designed with adequate resistance to loads and pressures imposed by ice.

北极蕴藏着丰富的资源，据信拥有世界上20%以上未被发现的石油和天然气。加拿大拥有世界上最长的海岸线，其中大部分位于北极地区。北方地区蕴藏着丰富的资源，包括石油、天然气和金属储量。加拿大制定了一项北方战略，作为国家政策的一部分。促进经济发展、保护环境和维护主权是重要目标。加拿大北部的发展意味着对自然资源，包括近海自然资源的经济开发。本申请集中于设计用于安全海上开发的设施（包括结构和船舶）的技术的开发。这里的安全是指人类生命和环境的安全。这意味着，作为本申请的主要焦点的结构系统被设计成具有对冰施加的载荷和压力的足够抵抗力。
