“…Tackling this question of capacity-building requires understanding and dealing with systemic issues caused by colonialist legacies. Tabata [5] considers contributions of natural resource extraction, focusing on mining, oil and diamonds, to the economic development of the Sakha Republic, in Russia. Mustonen and Van Dam [6] observe that in Alaska dependencies on cash economies and firearms, as well as epidemics and the takeover of resources and cultural practices, contribute to the loss of self-governance.…”

“…The Tomtor deposit is expected to yield 200,000 tons of ore per year, with its ensuing transportation for processing [5,6]. Obviously, the implementation of this large-scale project in the Arctic will be fraught with numerous environmental and climate-related risks [7][8][9]. It will have an impact on the traditional lands and economy of indigenous peoples [10][11][12][13].…”

The article addresses the issues of route selection for minerals’ transportation based on social, economic, and environmental factors to ensure sustainability in the Arctic. The case of the Tomtor deposit of rare earth metals in Yakutia is considered in the paper. The authors analyze its impact on traditional lands and the environment. To ensure sustainability and to optimize the natural resources’ use for route selection for minerals’ transportation in the Arctic, a system of criteria is proposed. It covers not only the cost of transportation and the distance from the deposit to the processing point, but also the damage to traditional lands of indigenous peoples, and environmental and social risks. An algorithm for choosing the optimal solution for the conservation of natural resources and traditional lands during the transportation of minerals is proposed. It depends on the developed criteria. The proposed approaches can be used during industrial development and investment in the Arctic to optimize the routes of mineral resources’ transportation.

“…A number of authors point out that the assessment of the aggregate technical and economic potential of a field is a key condition for effective strategic management of the oil and gas complex when developing both onshore and offshore hydrocarbon fields in the Arctic [19][20][21]. A certain number of works by Russian scientists are devoted to the issues surrounding the strategic management of mineral extraction processes in the Arctic [22][23][24][25]. Foreign researchers also pay attention to this issue.…”

Sustainable development of the Arctic is the main priority of the state policy regarding regional development of the Russian Federation. The study of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation for the formation of principles, methods and strategies, as well as organizational and economic mechanisms for its sustainable development is topical at present. This article deals with one of the strategic decision-making tools used in the process of implementing the development program for the Russian Arctic, namely, the assessment of the technical and economic potential of the Arctic fields. The purpose of this assessment is to rank the fields according to the priority of their commissioning for a more optimal distribution of costs in the development of Arctic resources. This paper presents the results and methodology of technical and economic potential estimation in general, and the potential of the Arctic oil and gas fields in particular. An analysis of the conceptual apparatus in the field of the evaluation of various types of potential is carried out. The methodology for assessing the technical and economic potential of a field are investigated. The problems arising in the process of such an assessment are revealed. Recommendations for improving the methodology of assessing the technical and economic potential of oil and gas fields in the Arctic are given. The necessity of expanding the list of indicators for assessing the technical and economic potential of these fields, taking into account current trends, has been noted. A list of 10 technical and 26 economic indicators to assess the technical and economic potential of the development of offshore Arctic fields is proposed.
