Innovative Possibilities of Integrated Oil Spill Response within Marine Areas
Abstract
The technical possibilities of eliminating oil spills have been studied using the example of the December 2024 heating oil spill in the Anapa area. It has been established that important conditions for the effectiveness of the oil and oil product spill response method are not only localization, but also an increase in the speed of spill response. An innovative method for collecting and eliminating oil spills is proposed using the example of a part of the north-eastern Black Sea. An experimental installation made of polypropylene plates was tested in laboratory conditions, which allowed not only to achieve adhesion of oil and petroleum products from seawater, but also to identify a number of hydrometeorological parameters that maximize the quality of oil spill response. The possibility of testing this installation in real conditions was noted, which will allow it to be used to localize and eliminate the consequences of accidents during oil transportation within marine waters.
