Title: Construction Problems-Canadian Arctic Pipeline
Author: William Gant

Year Published: 1973
Abstract: The prolonged uncertainties and frustrations surrounding the Alyeska Pipeline Project-with which you are all familiar I am certain-provide ample evidence of the special engineering, environmental, ecological, and sociological considerations associated with an Arctic pipeline. I would like to discuss these and other practical problems facing those engaged to construct such a facility. Taken together, the problems of manpower availability and training, accommodation. equipment, financial resources, logistics. access, terrain, specialized design, climate, and government regulations, represent bv far the greatest challenge ever faced by the pipeline construciion industry: At the present lime, the pipeline proposed by the Canadian Arctic Gas Study Group to deliver gas from northern Canadian fields as well as Prudhoe Bay appears to be the most likely first project in northern Canada. However, because they have not yet finalized route or design parameters and because the problems I have mentioned will be die same no matter what the route, my comments are made without specific reference to any individual gas pipeline proposal.
