The settlement, the most northerly civilian in the world serves research staff. The company provides the necessary infrastructure, such as transport (including the airport Ny-Ålesund Airport, Hamnerabben), real estate, power and water supply, catering and other facilities. The company is also responsible for administering Bjørnøen AS, a government enterprise that owns the entire island of Bjørnøya. In the summer the company also handles cruise ships that arrive at Ny-Ålesund.[1][2] The company was founded in 1916 as Kings Bay Kull Company with the intention of operating a coal mine. It was later nationalized, and in 1962 the mine closed in the context of a political crisis in Norway known as the Kings Bay Affair (Kings Bay-saken). A research facility was subsequently set up in at Ny-Ålesund, to be run by the company.[3] From 1964 to 1974, through an agreement with the European Space Research Organisation (ESRO), the island housed a Norwegian satellite telemetry station. King's Bay resumed primary responsibility for facilities operations in 1974. In the 1990s, research activities expanded in Ny-Ålesund. In 1998 Kings Bay Kull Compani AS changed its name to Kings Bay AS, removing the final reference to coal.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://snl.no/Kings_Bay_AS|title= Kings Bay AS|publisher = Store norske leksikon|author= Rolf Bryhn|accessdate= October 1, 2016}} {{Portal|Norway|Energy}}{{commons category|Kongsfjorden}}{{Norgoventbox}}{{Svalbard}}{{Svalbard-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url= https://snl.no/Ny-%C3%85lesund|title= Ny-Ålesund|publisher =Store norske leksikon |author= Susan Barr|accessdate= October 1, 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url= https://www.stortinget.no/no/Stortinget-og-demokratiet/Historikk/Historisk-dokumentasjon/Kings-Bay-saken/|title= Kings Bay-saken|publisher = Stortinget|accessdate= October 1, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://kingsbay.no/ny_lesund/history/ |title=History |publisher=King's Bay AS |accessdate=25 September 2017}} 12 : Power companies of Norway|Airport operators|Government-owned companies of Norway|Companies based in Svalbard|Non-renewable resource companies established in 1916|1916 establishments in Norway|Coal companies of Norway|Mining in Svalbard|Ny-Ålesund|Non-renewable resource companies disestablished in 1962|Research institutes established in 1964|Public utilities established in 1964 |
