On Saturday, 16 August 2025, the Swedish icebreaker Oden reached the North Pole for the eleventh time since its inaugural voyage in 1991.
Mobilisation for the Canada–Sweden Arctic Ocean 2025 expedition is underway in the port of Helsingborg, where the icebreaker Oden is being prepared and outfitted for the expedition.
During this year's Arctic expedition with the icebreaker Oden, the researchers want to document the transition between winter and summer. This goal requires flexible planning and, based on weather forecasts, being able to move Oden to places where warm air enters the Arctic.
It's time to welcome an artist to a research expedition with the icebreaker Oden! The visual artist Cecilia Cissi Hultman will participate in ArcOP 2022 to the Arctic Ocean. She received the news while in Berlin.
