"ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE" An ice island for use in offshore operations in cold waters includes an operations pad and a surrounding containment barrier, the bases of which are grounded on the marine bottom. The island is constructed by accumulating ice in confined areas defined on a sheet of native ice until the mass of the accumu- lated ice causes the ice underlying and adjacent to the confined area to be depressed with respect to the main body of ice and be grounded on the marine bottom.
