  • Abstract
    Increasing offshore oil exploration in Alaskan waters has created the need for a workboat, which is designed to meet the special demands of that service, in addition to the normal operational reqiurements of such vessels. This paper discusses the background to ice-worthy supply vessels and describes a particular design created to fullfill the operational requirements for Alaskan offshore service.
