“…Antes de converger en el concepto de seguridad física de plataformas y unidades offshore, es conveniente revisar los conceptos asociados de Estado ribereño, seguridad energética, seguridad marítima y seguridad marítima integral. El Estado ribereño es aquel que puede ejercer su soberanía más allá de sus límites terrestres y aguas interiores, lo que le permite explotar sus recursos y a su vez efectuar actividades de control y vigilancia con el objetivo de proteger sus intereses, actividades y espacios marítimos (Virzo, 2015).…”

Este artículo analiza los riesgos de seguridad física de las plataformas y unidades móviles de exploración y explotación de hidrocarburos costa afuera (offshore) en el mar Caribe colombiano. Para ello, se hace una revisión conceptual, se estudia la literatura relevante y se analizan los riesgos resultantes. Una vez establecidos los criterios de clasificación y medición, se examina el impacto y la probabilidad de ocurrencia de eventos violentos que pudieran afectar estas plataformas y unidades. Como resultado, se concluye que la mayoría de riesgos son de tipo asimétrico, con un nivel de probabilidad baja y media de ocurrencia, entre los cuales se destacan el terrorismo y las acciones hostiles entre Estados por su potencial impacto. Se propone ejercer mejor control del territorio marítimo en pro de la seguridad marítima y energética.

INTRODUCTION. Climate change in the Arctic, caused by global warming, as well as the political processes taking place in the world associated with increased pressure from the countries of the collective West on the Russian Federation, again raise in Western doctrine the question of the validity of the Russian Federation establishing a national regime for navigation in the waters of the Northern Sea Route in accordance with Article 234 of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Doubts have been raised about our country’s compliance with the Convention’s requirement to maintain a balance between freedom of navigation and environmental protection. The purpose of this work is to analyze the validity of claims against the Russian Federation regarding its alleged abuse of the right to establish a national regime for navigation in the Arctic under the guise of environmental protection.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The problems raised in the work are structurally divided into three main groups. The ﬁrst of them is related to the analysis of the characteristics of shipping in the Arctic under conditions of a changing climate, as well as the determination of the need to establish a special legal regime for navigation in polar waters. The second is devoted to the systematic interpretation of Article 234 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, in its relationship with other norms of the Convention, identifying the criteria and restrictions established therein in relation to the rules of navigation adopted by the coastal state in ice-covered areas, as well as the legal content of the requirement of “due attention to navigation and protection and conservation of the marine environment.” The third part of the work is devoted to assessing the legislation of the Russian Federation on the regulation of navigation along the Northern Sea Route for its compliance with the requirements of Article 234 and maintaining the balance of freedom of navigation and protection of the marine environment in the Arctic.RESEARCH RESULTS. The legislation of the Russian Federation on the regulation of navigation in the waters of the Northern Sea Route fully meets the conditions and criteria established by Article 234 of the Convention, and is aimed at ensuring the functioning of a uniﬁed and centralized system for managing the safety of navigation in the particularly dangerous conditions of the Arctic, preventing accidents and environmental pollution environment. The restrictions established by Russian legislation are not discriminatory and are based on current and constantly updated scientiﬁc data.DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. Shipping in polar waters involves enormous risks to human life, valuable property and an extremely fragile and vulnerable environment. The eﬀects of global warming are only exacerbating these risks, leading to increased ice instability and worsening climate problems. In this regard, in ice-covered areas, a centralized navigation management system is objectively necessary, and the establishment of special, uniform legal regulation to ensure the uninterrupted functioning of such a system. A systematic interpretation of Article 234 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea allows us to conclude that the establishment by a coastal state within its EEZ of non-discriminatory laws and regulations aimed at preventing, reducing and keeping under control pollution of the marine environment from ships is not a privilege, but a duty of the state based on its more general obligation to protect the marine environment, established in articles 192 and 194 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. The rule of “due respect to navigation” in this regard should be interpreted to mean that the restrictions and requirements imposed by the laws and regulations of the coastal State must be primarily aimed at ensuring the safety and protection of the marine environment in harsh climatic conditions, without being at the same time discriminatory, unreasonable and excessive.
