Popis: Prospects for presence of gas production areas of the Taz Bay of the Gulf of Ob have been determined by the authors of the paper. Approaches to determining the optimal ice-resistant shape of the platform support base are considered. Scenarios of extreme ice impacts on structures operated in the Gulf of Ob have been determined. An assessment of global actions to occur during interaction of platforms with ice features was given, which directly affects the choice of the platform design and the way of securing it on the seabed. A calculation of global ice actions, determined by both domestic and foreign procedures, was performed. The obtained results of global ice actions, determined by use of several procedures prescribed by the main regulatory documents, were analyzed in various scenarios of the “platform/ice features” interaction. The prospects of further research were investigated.
