Part of: Dredging and Dredged Material Disposal

The use of dredges in the Canadian Arctic in connection with oil exploration programmes has lead to the adaptation of existing and adoption of new techniques. Further development is required if sufficient oil is found to warrant exploitation. The new techniques could also be used in more benign environments.
