Abstract: The thermal aspects of man-made ice structures for arctic offshore use are con­sidered. A two-dimensional ice model grounded in various depths of seawater is presented. Isotherm and time-temperature plots indicate that such a structure is thermally feasible for the geometry and climatic conditions considered. Possible areas of weakness are commented upon and recommendations for further areas of study are made.
