IAP Programme Structure
ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 3
The IAP Awareness Concept
Awareness Activities aim to: • Bring new customers to space-based services.
• Identify new types of space-based services.
• Improve the utilisation and exploitation of existing space assets.
• Strengthen the user-pull paradigm of IAP.
In principle, this will be performed by: Reaching out to stakeholders / users in order to understand, foster and organise their demands.
ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 4

ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 10
The Arctic Environment
• The Arctic region is a frontier environment for human activities, driven by global economic demand for resources and made possible in part by global warming.
• Pressure is growing on the Arctic as an arena for a multiple of activities, including oil and gas (with 13% of undiscovered oil and 30% of natural gas estimated to lie north of the Arctic Circle).
• There is already a considerable amount of maritime shipping in the Arctic, such as cruise ships and research ships, and the Northern Sea route and North-West passage are already starting to open up to commercial shipping.
• However, the Arctic has many severe challenges:
• Dangerous operating conditions: • Constant ice cover. • Drifting icebergs. • Frequently low visibility. • Low temperatures. • Winter darkness. • Polar Lows.
• Extremely sensitive environment: • Restrictions on HFO’s in the Arctic ?
• Remoteness: • No land-based medical facilities available. • Need to carry critical spare parts.
ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 11
Resources in the Arctic
• The Arctic may contain as much as one fifth of the future world’s oil and gas reserves.
• The main countries aiming at oil/gas exploitation in the region are Denmark, Norway, the US, Russia and Canada.
• More than half of the undiscovered oil resources are likely to occur in just three geologic provinces: Arctic Alaska (30 billion barrels), the Amerasia Basin (9.7 billion barrels) and the East Greenland Rift Basins (8.9 billion barrels).
• More than 70 per cent of the undiscovered natural gas is likely to be in three provinces: the West Siberian Basin, the East Barents Basins and Arctic Alaska.

What are the steps to prepare for an IAP activity? 1) The right content and set-up:
- A “good” user with a problem in demand of a solution. - A service-oriented mindset (not research or technology driven). - A strong team (strong leadership, right mix of partners). - Operational, technical, and commercial know-how. - Involvement of a potential service provider (indispensable for DEMO’s). … and, of course, more than 1 space asset to be integrated.
2) Submission of a proposal is the necessary process to apply to the ARTES 20 programme: - Either as an activity initiated by a consortium (co-funded) following the requirements of the continuously open call for ARTES 20 proposals in AO 6124 (Outline Proposal => Full Proposal); - Or answering to ESA-initiated ARTES 20 ITTs (fully funded).
ESA’s Integrated Applications Promotion Programme (ARTES 20)
ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 20
ESA initiated Feasibility Studies (Open Competition - Fully funded)
Dedicated ITTs will be published on EMITS including the typical set of tender documents (invitation letter, statement of work, special tender conditions, draft contract).
Consortia apply according to the ITT conditions and submit their proposals including letters of authorisation from their national delegations.
ESA selects the best proposal(s) for contract award.
ESA identifies stakeholder / users and collaborates with them in order to initiate open competitive tenders.
Special Tender Conditions: Defining the content of the bid to ESA
Invitation letter: Sets the scene
Statement of Work: Defining the tasks to be carried out
Draft Contract: Regulates obligations (e.g. payments, deliverables, IPR)
Process:
ESA IAP Arctic Workshop | 12/03/2011 | Slide 21
Process (1): Outline Proposal • Ruling document for Outline and Full Proposals is the continuous “Open
Call for Proposals for Feasibility Studies and Demonstration Projects”: http://emits.esa.int Open Invitations to Tender AO 6124
• Submission of an Outline Proposal to email address: [email protected] • Outline Proposal template available on IAP Portal. • ESA assessment and possible iteration with bidder on promising ideas
until selection criteria are fulfilled. • Clarification with national delegations if activity is expected to be
supported. • Approval by the JCB required at one of 4 meetings per year.
Partner/industry initiated Activities (co-funded) Feasibility Studies or Demonstration Projects
