It is anticipated that up to a maximum of 16 cargo sledges will be purchased for deployment in Antarctica over the duration of the contract. Due to the complexity of operations and the environmental challenges, the cargo sledges are required to be safe and highly reliable to operate in Antarctic conditions.
