When the petroleum industry takes on the Arctic, Daewoo breaks the ice.

When ARCO, operator of the eastern half of Alaska's

Prudhoe Bay field, found that a special offshore facility would be needed to increase the field recovery, it was cru- cial they find a company that could not only build it for them—but assure delivery by August. Any later, and the

Bering Strait would become impassable for another year.

That's when ARCO asked Daewoo to build them a

Seawater Treating Plant, a first-of-a-kind facility that could maintain enough pressure in Arctic waters to keep oil production at 1.5 million barrels daily. It was Daewoo's S.J. Lee. project director, who made sure the massive structure was out of the Okpo Shipyard on time, even though many extra steps had to be taken to prepare the plant for 20 years of work in sub-zero marine conditions.

S.J. Lee is just one example of the exceptional dedi- cation you'll find at Daewoo, and one of the reasons why we're becoming a favorite teammate of businesses around the world.
