E-mail corresponding author (Kim Senger): [email protected] The beginning of the Norwegian oil industry is often attributed to the first exploration drilling in the North Sea in 1966, the first discovery in 1967 and the discovery of the supergiant Ekofisk field in 1969. However, petroleum exploration already started onshore Svalbard in 1960 with three mapping groups from Caltex and exploration efforts by the Dutch company Bataaffse (Shell) and the Norwegian private company Norsk Polar Navigasjon AS (NPN). NPN was the first company to spud a well at Kvadehuken near Ny-Ålesund in 1961.

  • First Record of Vulgarogamasus Immanis (Acari, Mesostigmata) in Svalbard
    vol. 33, no. 1, pp. 35–39, 2012 doi: 10.2478/v10183−012−0001−8 First record of Vulgarogamasus immanis (Acari, Mesostigmata) in Svalbard Dariusz J. GWIAZDOWICZ 1, Torstein SOLHØY 2, Stephen J.

The gamasid mite community of Svalbard is amongst the best known of invertebrate groups of the archipelago due to recent revisions based on fresh sam− pling campaigns. Nonetheless, a hitherto unrecorded species of gamasid mite was recently found along the strandline in Barentsburg. This record brings the total gamasid mite inven− tory of Svalbard to 23 species. The current inventory of Svalbard is bedeviled with syn− onyms and misidentifications. Nevertheless, resolving these confusions and maintaining an accurate and updated species inventory is of prime importance in understanding the ecology of this region. Especially in a period of rapid environmental change. Key words: Arctic, Spitsbergen, Barentsburg, mite, Gamasida. Introduction Svalbard lies in the high Arctic between latitudes 74° N and 81° N and longi− tudes 10° E and 35° E, some 700 km north of the Norwegian mainland.

  • Appendix: Economic Geology: Exploration for Coal, Oil and Minerals

The view is from Trygghamna ('Safe Harbour') with CSE motorboats Salterella and Collenia by the shore, with good anchorage and easy access inland. Photo M. J. Hambrey, CSE (SP. 1561). Routine journeys to the fjords of north Spitsbergen and Nordaustlandet pass by the rocky coastline of northwest Spitsbergen. Here is a view of Smeerenburgbreen from Smeerenburgfjordenwhich affords some shelter being protected by outer islands. On one of these was Smeerenburg, the principal base for early whaling, hence the Dutch name for 'blubber town'. Photo N. I. Cox, CSE 1989.

Photo P. W. Web, CSE 1989. Access to cliffs and a glacier route (up Hannabreen) often necessitates crossing blocky talus (here Devonian in foreground) and then possibly a pleasanter route up the moraine on to hard glacier ice. Moraine generally affords a useful introduction to the rocks to be traversed along the glacial margin. The dots in the sky are geese training their young to fly in V formation for their migration back to the UK at the end of the summer.

  • Telenor Ninety Years on Spitsbergen
    Telenor ninety years on Spitsbergen This year, it will be ninety year since Telenor (at that time Telegrafvæsenet) established the first telephone link between Spitsbergen and the Norwegian mainland. With the exception of a few years during the second world war, Telenor has been present on Svalbard since 1911. This weekend, Telenor, one of Svalbard's pioneers, will be celebrating its continued active role in the island group through several arrangements. Spitsbergen Radio On May 3, 1911, the Norwegian parliament agreed that a radio telegraph station was to be built on Svalbard. The station was named Spitsbergen Radio and originally built at Green Harbour (now Grønfjorden). It was later moved to Finneset just south of Barentsburg. The station was established five years before Svalbard's first coal mine opened. The first telephone connection linking Svalbard to the mainland based on the technology of the time was made on November 22, 1911. A corresponding station was built on the mainland. In 1930, the station that had been named Svalbard Radio in 1925 was moved to Longyearbyen. Isfjord Radio In 1933, Isfjord Radio was established at Kapp Linne. The station was established to act as an intermediary for traffic between Svalbard Radio and ships in the waters around Svalbard. During the second world war, Isfjord Radio was decommissioned and destroyed by German occupying forces, but the station was rebuilt and set back into operation in 1946. Most of Isfjord Radio's operations were moved to Longyearbyen when the airport was opened in 1975. Today, Svalbard Radio operates from the airport's control tower, handling communication for both sea and air traffic.

I tillegg ble regjeringen i Dokument nr. 8:85 (1994–1995) bedt om å legge opp til en styringsmodell for Longyear- byen som gir befolkningen muligheter til demokratisk innflytelse i lokalsam- funnet i den helhetlige gjennomgangen av svalbardsamfunnet Stortinget har bedt om. I forbindelse med utarbeidelsen av stortingsmeldingen om Svalbard har det vært nedsatt en interdepartemental styringsgruppe bestående av repre- sentanter fra Finansdepartementet, Justisdepartementet, Kirke, utdannings- og forskningsdepartementet, Kommunal- og regionaldepartementet, Miljø- verndepartementet, Nærings- og handelsdepartementet og Utenriksdeparte- mentet. Som ledd i arbeidet med meldingen har det også vært nedsatt to arbeids- grupper, som har utredet spørsmålet om lokaldemokrati nærmere.
