The proposed study is to provide a description of the Alaskan Arctic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)meteorological/ oceanography (metocean) and operational conditions which, in the event of a loss-of-well-control situation, shall: preclude the safe deployment of Source Control and Containment Equipment (SCCE); preclude the operator from safely drilling a relief well; allow one method, but preclude the other and; provide historical statistical analysis of the Alaskan Arctic OCS drilling season, over the past 5 years, in which metocean additionally, provide the BSEE Alaska Region with a historical statistical analysis of the Alaskan Arctic OCS drilling season, over the past 5 years, in which metocean and operational conditions would support either or both methods.
