Abstract:
ABSTRACT The cost of offshore and coastal cleanup of spilled oil varies greatly from spill to spill but is of high interest in risk assessments, because cost is often used as the basis of comparison. We present data on the costs associated with mechanical offshore cleanup, shoreline cleanup, and offshore burning. A review of eight offshore recovery operations in North America indicates a mean offshore, on-water cleanup cost of approximately $2,500/bbl, with a range of $10 to $6,000/bbl. Smaller spills (1,000 to 2,000 bbl) have a higher per-unit recovery cost than large spills (≥10,000 bbl)—at

Abstract:
The global lifestyle of this modern world has become more dependent on petroleum-based products, whose applications are involved almost everywhere. Since a large quantity of oil is being used on a daily basis, the spilling of oil by various means during its storage and transportation has become inevitable. This work focuses on the spilling of oil in a marine environment, generally referred to as an offshore oil spill, in contrast to an onshore oil spill associated with a terrestrial environment. These oil spills not only devastate the natural resources and unsettle the economy, they also jeopa

Abstract:
River oil spills are generally more frequent and pose greater environmental and public health risk than coastal and offshore oil spills. However, the river oil spill research has received a negligible amount of academic attention in the past three decades, while at the same time the coastal and offshore oil spill research has expanded and evolved tremendously. This paper provides the state-of-the-art review of river oil spill modeling and summarizes the developments in the field from 1994 to present. The review has revealed that the majority of the gaps in knowledge still remain. Thus, there i

ABSTRACT The January 1994 spill off the coast of Puerto Rico may best be known for the oil it deposited on beaches of a prime resort area of this beautiful island during a peak tourism period. But we at the Marine Spill Response Corp. saw the spill as the first true field test, under reallife conditions, of one of our 16 specially designed, 208-foot oil spill recovery vessels. While deemed successful, the operations in the offshore environment—an area little covered by oil recovery manuals—highlighted a number of important considerations, which may be grouped into three areas: impact of physic

ABSTRACT An oil spill cleanup system was developed to operate offshore with minimal requirements for vessel and personnel coordination. This Vessel of Opportunity Skimming System (VOSS) consists of a skimming barrier towed alongside a single vessel with an outrigger. Suction hoses run to pumps on deck, which are powered by a diesel-hydraulic powerpack. Recovered fluid is pumped through an oil-water separator before being directed to storage. The first VOSS units were installed aboard the LOOP Vigilance, a shrimp boat modified for oil spill response by the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port (LOOP). Th

Frequently, offshore oil spills have a significant impact on the marine environment and fishery resources, resulting in huge economic losses. Due to a lot of projects are involved in oil spill and the process is complex, the injured party lacks the evidence to support the evaluation of the oil spill impact on the environment. Therefore, many oil spill claims event had not been properly resolved.

ABSTRACT On October 31, 1984, the vessel USS Puerto Rican exploded at sea off San Francisco. The disabled vessel was towed offshore and on November 3, 1984, the stern sank releasing, at least, an estimated 12,000 barrels of petroleum products. California experiences oil spills affecting natural resources every year. Rarely are these spills as large as the Puerto Rican spill, but natural resource protection minimized the losses of bird life as a result of this incident. Planning for oil spill cleanup helped prevent more losses to these natural resources. In addition, some bird cleaning and reha

Abstract:
AbstractERA Acute supports a variety of analyses, from simple screening studies based on oil spill statistics and potential impact areas to more in-depth impact and recovery calculations on species and habitats. The ERA Acute software tool has been built to enable and provide ease of use of the methodology and results. Visualizations of impact and risk areas can be made at several levels, from simulations and scenarios to whole cases. Results can have a monthly resolution to show variations throughout the year. This enables a wide range of decision-support from risk screening studies, impact assessments, risk quantification, risk management including effect of mitigating measures (NEBA/SIMA) evaluations to properly inform oil spill response planning. The methodology is suitable for global use and will be the recommended approach for oil spill risk assessments for offshore operators on the NCS.
