Abstract

This in-depth qualitative comparative case study aims to explore how supply vessels participate in offshore logistics operations and facilitate the development of offshore oil/gas field projects in response to contextual influence. The study presents the development of two offshore field projects located in the Arctic context: the Southwest Barents Sea (Norway) and the Southeast Barents Sea (the Pechora Sea, Russia).
The analysis of two empirical cases reveals that supply vessels play a crucial role in the activities like monitoring the offshore operations and contextual conditions, improving coordination of the logistics process, developing a common understanding of the current situation, ensuring response operations to any emergencies, supporting training exercises, and others. Thus, supply vessels facilitate the anticipation of possible emergencies that might occur and changes in allocating transportation resources. Further, the findings reveal that anticipation is both a strong driver and great challenge for providing the resilience of offshore field development among uncertainties and complexities in Arctic waters.
The study provides an understanding of how multi-functionality of supply vessels enables value-creating activities of offshore logistics and resilience building processes. It is further shown that building resilience can have trade-offs for both the logistical planning and allocation of transportation resources.
