Abstract	The project focus was to explicitly study, through experimentation and data analysis, the effect of the hull-ice friction coefficient of a vessel shaped offshore production system, on measured pack ice forces. Experiments were conducted on three different hull-ice friction coefficients, ranging from a very smooth finish, representing a new low friction coating, to a very rough finish, representing an aged and deteriorated hull coating. A Froude Number based non-dimensional methodology was used in order to predict the pack ice forces created by the pack ice loading for the various friction coefficients.
