Ship adapted for drilling and/or production from an oil and/or gas well, which ship is adapted to have connection to at least one production riser that is connected to a turret connected to the ship or a drill riser string that extends through a turret connected to the ship. The ship between its bow and stern exhibits two longitudinal sides which along at least 50 % of their length are provided with an ice belt that exhibits an angle ± between the hull of the ship and the horizontal, which angle ± is between 45 and 80 degrees. The turret has a centre axis which is arranged in a position on the ship corresponding to 0,15 - 0,45 Lpp in front of the ship's half Lpp (length between perpendiculars).
