Sammendrag
This paper describes a simulation-based approach towards the design of robust arctic maritime

transport systems that are adaptable to uncertain future ice conditions. It makes it possible to simulate the performance

of the transport system for various future ice scenarios and to compare various ice mitigation strategies

in terms of cost. A case study is carried out to demonstrate how the approach could be applied in practice.

The outcome from the case study indicates that the approach can provide valuable insights into the

economics of an arctic maritime transport system and that its components can easily be modified or replaced

for improved accuracy.
