New projects for the development… 17 UDC [911.3:33](98)(045) DOI: 10.37482/issn2221-2698.2020.38.21 New projects for the development of the Russian Arctic: space matters! © Aleksandr N. PILYASOV, Dr. Sci. (Geogr.), professor E-mail: [email protected] Lomonosov Moscow State University, Institute of Regional Consulting, Moscow, Russia © Elena S. PUTILOVA, expert E-mail: [email protected] Institute of Regional Consulting, Moscow, Russia Abstract. The article summarizes the results of the analysis of 23 recent projects for the development of Rus- sian Arctic resources in terms of the spatial effects they generate or rely on. It is proved to be the feature of the economic and geographical approach to the analysis of Arctic projects. The most critical change, com- pared with the realities of the late Soviet era, is the reliance on the sea logistics of most new projects for the development of Russian Arctic resources. Three main spatial effects of development projects are described in detail: the localization effect, the regional effect, and the corporate effect. The first one reflects the desire of companies to the utmost compactness and a sparsely populated production site, platform solutions using artificial intelligence, remote control, robotic mining, and processing schemes. The second effect revives the Soviet district effect within the contour of the resource corporation as their desire to provide cost savings on the “soft” infrastructure pairing of neighboring production facilities. The third effect characterizes the cooperation of usually competing companies in severe natural and economic conditions for the development of Arctic projects.
