“…The literature used for this paper includes articles of Dr. Fadeev [1] and Dr. Ilinsky [2] on sustainability, as well as more specific material cited for its environmental and social importance, such as the articles by Unguryeanu and Chaschin et al [3,4]. The holistic nature of our study means that besides theoretical principles of management we must examine environmental, biological and social data.…”

IAs conventional oil and gas sources become less productive, unconventional hydrocarbon sources become more attractive due to new technologies and become the target of expanded exploration. Oil and gas development in the Arctic is challenging but promising, the largest reserves of Oil and Gas in the Arctic are on the Arctic Shelf in Russia. Most Arctic communities, especially indigenous communities, depend on fishing, hunting, and gathering, this requires the preservation of environmental health. In this article we tried to delineate a strategy for large oil and gas companies to diversify risk by proposing a form of social entrepreneurship that works for environmentally vulnerable regions with low infrastructure or skilled labor. With this framework, large oil and gas companies could effectively and reliably support smaller-scale enterprises preserving environmental health and creating an innovative business ecosystem that promotes a Arctic. Our model could also lead to local and indigenous entrepreneurship and a more equitable distribution of wealth in the Arctic.

“…Russia, as a key player in the global energy market, has an important role in meeting both external and internal energy demand in the short and long terms; therefore, the Arctic continues to be one of the promising areas for providing Russia with hydrocarbons [11]. The development of rich mineral resources in the Arctic has been of global interest for several decades for both business and scientific communities around the world [12][13][14][15][16], including Russia, since 30% of the Russian budget depends on oil and gas revenues [17], and about 12% of oil and 83% of gas is produced in the Arctic [18].…”

According to the forecasts made by IEA, BP, and Total in early 2021, the demand for hydrocarbons will continue for decades, and their share in the global energy balance will remain significant. Russia, as a key player in the energy market, is interested in maintaining and increasing hydrocarbon production, so further exploitation of the Arctic energy resources is an urgent issue. A large number of onshore oil and gas projects have been successfully implemented in the Arctic since the 1930s, while recently, special attention has been paid to the offshore energy resources and implementation of natural gas liquefaction projects. However, the implementation of oil and gas projects in the Arctic is characterized by a negative impact on the environment, which leads to a violation of the ecological balance in the Arctic, and affects the stability of its ecosystem, which is one of the most vulnerable ecosystems on the planet. The main goal of the present study is to understand how the implementation of oil and gas projects in the Arctic affects the ecosystem, to assess the significance of this process, and to find out what the state and business could do to minimize it. In the article, the authors analyze energy trends, provide brief information about important oil and gas projects being implemented in the Arctic region of Russia, and investigate the challenges of the oil and gas projects’ development and its negative impacts on the Arctic environment. The main contributions of this paper are the identification of all possible environmental risks and processes accompanying oil and gas production, and its qualitative analysis and recommendations for the state and business to reduce the negative impact of oil and gas projects on the Arctic ecosystem. The research methodology includes desk studies, risk management tools (such as risk analysis, registers, and maps), brainstorming, the expert method, systematization, comparative analysis, generalization, and grouping.

“…In these conditions, further large-scale exploitation of Arctic oil and gas resources requires an assessment of not only projects' economic indicators [35] but also their multiplicative effect on the socio-economic development of the Arctic regions [29,36,37]. In this context, the geopolitical aspect is also relevant.…”

Exploitation of oil and gas resources in the Arctic offshore is one of Russia’s key priorities in such areas as science, economy, and technology. Global trends, harsh climate conditions, fragile ecosystems, conditions of the pandemic and post-pandemic periods, price volatility, and the growing importance of the environmental factor require that the process of developing the Arctic’s hydrocarbon resources should become strategically sustainable. The paper provides a deep literature review on sustainability issues, sustainable development, strategic sustainability, and project efficiency in the Arctic offshore oil and gas sector. The paper analyzes the trends and conditions that substantiate the need to transform the traditional sustainability concept to meet new challenges and comply with new policies. Based on the analysis, the authors propose a definition of and a conceptual framework for strategic sustainability of oil and gas offshore projects in the Arctic.
