In 1982, a mobile, bottom founded steel caisson drilling system, was conceived, constructed and installed on an underwater sand berm in 31 m of water, in the active shear zone of the Canadian Beaufort Sea. Discussed in this paper are the principal design criteria, the ice/structure/foundation interaction, the construction and installation, and the post set down stress analysis of the steel caisson.
