In order to reduce the probability of dangerous impacts from ice cover and icebergs on offshore oil and gas production facilities, as well as to protect associated marine operations it is necessary to develop and implement so-called “Ice Management Systems” (IMS). The authors analyze the technologies and tools, used in practical ice management operations in various areas of the Arctic shelf, define the list of key technologies and consider the limitations of additional technologies. They assume that in real IM practice it is possible to abandon the technology of measuring the drift of ice formations using radio beacons in favor of measurements by vessel radars (“ice radars”). Based on open sources, the authors carry out a performance analysis of ice management (IM) operations to influence icebergs and drifting ice. Analysis of numerical simulation results allows them to select the most effective scheme for the operation of icebreakers when breaking the drifting ice.
