NOFO Oil Spill Control Exercise 2003 Equipment: 400 m offshore oil boom,tot.height 3.5m 1 TransRec 350, cap. 350 m3/hr. 1 supply vessel 1 towing vessel
Weir skimmer is the simplest and most compact skimmer design with a high performance. This should be used if possible.

Oil property
Oil property
350.000 cSt
Oil property
- Bunker fuels for commercial vessels will normally; HFO 380 - Some refineries will also export HFO with higher viscosities; HFO 680
Oil property
When these bunker fuels form an emulsion, we will experience the extreme viscosities Weathering of HFO 680
Oil property
- Crude oils may change into high viscous oils as the oil weathers and start to form an emulsion. Lighter fractions of crudes evaporate - Weathering test of relevant crude oils should be performed
Property: Viscosity of Emulsion

HYDR.PRESSURE SETTING
Driverless offloading of sunken vessels Why do we need to empty sunken vessels? Oil will come to the surface sooner or later We must not leave the environment polluted It is possible to cleanup after our mistakes It is a question of attitude and priorities
How do we do this We will use the same tool, TransRec, as for the emergency offloading and oil skimming operation The umbilical will be connected to a ROLS unit, which will cut hole in the vessels tank and discharge the oil to the surface vessel The ROLS may also be used for injection of compressed air into tanks and for steam injection as well (heating)
Our target is to empty oil from sunken vessels in a safe and cost effective solution
1. 2. 3. 4. Survey of wreck Identify the potential For pollution Plan the discharging of oil
Survey of wreck
Identify damage of wreck How many tanks that may contain oil How to attack the tanks, plan of the wreck Meassure the thickness of the hull plates
Identify the volume of oil in the tanks Measure difference in pressure in tanks Take oil samples of oil Identify specific gravity Calculate ullage

CARGO
Spray capacity 900 l/ min Self filling from supply vessel tank Spray from helicopter do not stir the oil into the water when spraying Vessel bow waves disturbs the oil surface before applying chemicals
Dispersant This is for cleanup of small oil slicks drifting towards sensitive areas Limitations This is only effective within the first 24 to 48 hours The emulsion will become too viscous for the dispersant to mix
Conclusion
Technology today can recover oil from sea surface as long as there is oil on the sea surface, independent of weather and waves Skimmer tools are available for all viscosities All functions should be remotely Safety on deck, no people on deck
Conclusion
