The potential claim area can have a size of up to 150,000 km<sup>2</sup>. Assumptions made are that the Lomonosov Ridge is a natural prolongation of the Greenland landmass, that it constitutes a submarine elevation and that sufficient thick sediments can be mapped outside the Hedberg line (FOS + 60 nautical miles). FOS - Foot of the continental slope. The unofficial medianlines between the Arctic coastal states are shown as stippled black lines.
