CD-3 Airstrip (ICAO: AK20) is a small, remote airstrip located near Nuiqsut, Alaska, on the North Slope of Alaska in the United States. It primarily serves the oil and gas industry operating in the area, providing access to drilling and production facilities in one of the most remote regions of North America. The airstrip is situated in the Arctic tundra environment, where operations can be challenging due to extreme cold, high winds, and limited daylight during winter months. It is not a commercial passenger airport and lacks the infrastructure typical of public-use facilities. Nuiqsut itself is a small Inupiat Eskimo community, and the surrounding area has seen significant industrial activity related to petroleum extraction on Alaska's North Slope. The airstrip supports logistics for nearby oil field development in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A) region.
