Arctic Directory: UIC thanks all involved in Stryker recovery effort

The Ukpeagvik Iñupiat Corp. said Oct. 5 that it wishes to express its gratitude to all entities involved in the recovery effort of the MV Stryker. On Sept. 14, the Stryker became grounded in the Beaufort Sea roughly three miles from shore. The vessel was successfully refloated and moved to Oliktok Point on Sept. 21. The operation was conducted in a manner that resulted in the safety of all vessel crew and response personnel. Throughout the recovery operation, all response personnel were focused on ensuring the safety of response personnel, controlling sources of potential releases, protecting the area’s wildlife and environment and successfully salvaging the Stryker. UIC extends a heartfelt thanks to Alaska Clean Seas, Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, BP Alaska, ConocoPhillips Alaska, Crowley Marine Services, Eni, Global Diving and Salvage, GBR Welding, Ice Services, Kuparuk Tool, North Slope Borough, The O’Brien’s Group, Peak Alaska, Pioneer Natural Resources and the U.S. Coast Guard.
