Caisson Structures in the Beaufort Sea
G.W. Timco and M.E. Johnston CHC-TR-003 Page 18
Significant oil and gas discoveries were made in the Beaufort Sea (see Figure 8),
including the Amauligak oil reservoir. To date, these reserves have not been developed.
Current discovered reserves for this region are 12 TCF gas, and 1.6 billion Bbls of oil.
During the drilling of the Amauligak well, 320,000 barrels of oil were shipped to Japan in
the tanker "Gulf Beaufort", making it the first major shipment of crude oil from the
Canadian Beaufort Sea.
