“…The chemical oil spill treatment options, as presented in Table 1, can be used as a basis to select appropriate location specific potential options. Several supportive tools in decision making have been developed (Reed et al 1995;Smit and Koops 2003;Wirtz and Liu 2006;Liu andWirtz 2007a, 2007b;Liu 2010;Helle et al 2011). One of them is the Net Environmental and Economic Benefit (NEEBA) program that could be applied to these options (Smit and Koops 2003).…”

Oil spills, for example those due to tanker collisions and groundings or platform accidents, can have huge adverse impacts on marine systems. The impact of an oil spill at sea depends on a number of factors, such as spill volume, type of oil spilled, weather conditions, and proximity to environmentally, economically, or socially sensitive areas. Oil spilled at sea threatens marine organisms, whole ecosystems, and economic resources in the immediate vicinity, such as fisheries, aquaculture, recreation, and tourism. Adequate response to any oil spill to minimize damage is therefore of great importance. The common response to an oil spill is to remove all visible oil from the water surface, either mechanically or by using chemicals to disperse the oil into the water column to biodegrade. This is not always the most suitable response to an oil spill, as the chemical application itself may also have adverse effects, or no response may be needed. In this article we discuss advantages and disadvantages of using chemical treatments to reduce the impact of an oil spill in relation to the conditions of the spill. The main characteristics of chemical treatment agents are discussed and presented within the context of a basic decision support scheme.

“…Many of them include Geographical Information System (GIS) as a component to create spatial decision support systems [69]. There are some models for oil risk assessment, such as the Fuzzy logic-based model (a quantitative approach) [70], multicriteria analysis [71], and scenario analysis [72]. Many existing models usually separately consider response operations and spilled oil's transport and weathering processes, but they have significant interactions [68].…”

Climate change has been observed worldwide in recent decades, posing challenges to the coastal and offshore oil and gas infrastructure. It is crucial to identify how climate change affects these infrastructures and the associated oil spill risk. This paper provides an analysis of the vulnerability of coastal and offshore oil and gas infrastructure in response to climate change. The paper examines oil spill incidents worldwide and addresses climate change’s possible influences on oil spill risk. Moreover, available oil spill modeling and decision support tools for oil spill response are reviewed considering climate change. The paper signals the need for emerging decision and modeling tools considering climate change effects, which can help decision-makers to evaluate the risk on time and provide early warnings to adapt or prevent the unforeseen impacts on the oil industry partially resulting from global warming, including oil spill accidents.

“…Hazard assessment for regional sea waters (Milena et al, 2010;Davide et al, 2013;Romero et al, 2013;Ciappa and Costabile, 2014), vulnerability assessment for coastal areas (Castanedo et al, 2009;Olita et al, 2012;Alves et al, 2014) and coastal zone management (Liu, 2010) for marine oil spill pollution accidents have also been discussed, but the theories and assessment approaches of marine oil spill risk are still in a development stage. Most of these approaches are ineffective and not widely used because of the incomplete index system and over-simplified model.…”
