    Uploaded by

    Vaishnavi Jayakumar
    This document outlines SJ Prasad's work on oil spill modeling and trajectory forecasting at the Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services. It discusses the types and sources of oil spills, environmental impacts of spills, and the need for an oil spill trajectory prediction system. It then describes INCOIS's oil spill modeling system, which uses the GNOME model, and provides a case study example of its use in advising response to an oil spill from a sinking ship in 2013.

    ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
    DUE TO OIL SPILLS
    NEED FOR OIL SPILL TRAJECTORY PREDICTION SYSTEM
    DISSEMINATION OF OIL SPILL ADVISORY SIGNIFICANCE OF OIL SPILL TRAJECTORY
    TO USERS PREDICTION
    In order to prevent the impact of oil
    spills on the marine environment an oil
    spill trajectory prediction system is
    required, to provide the trajectory of an
    oil spill thereby protecting the Marine
    habitats.
    In the event of oil spill, the direction
    and movement of the oil will be
    predicted in advance in our system
    and will be disseminated to the Users.
    The clean up and control measures
    will be planned and carried out
    accordingly.

    USES OF OIL SPILL MODELS


    1. Contingency planning - to protect the
    marine organisms

    2. Mock drills/ exercise - conducted by


    various offshore industries as a part of
    regulations

    3. Oil spill response operations - to issue


    the advisory in the event of oil spills.

    GNOME- (General NOAA Operational Modeling
    Environment)

    GNOME was developed by the Emergency Response Division of NOAA's

    Office of Response and Restoration.

    First release - March, 1999 ,Recent version - GNOME 1.3.9 - Sep 2014

    Predict how wind, currents and other processes might move and spread oil

    spilled on the water.

    It gives the best estimate (black color) and Minimum regret estimates (red

    color) of spill trajectories.

    CASE STUDY
    INCOIS ADVISORY DURING OIL SPILLS /MOCK DRILLS / SEARCH RESCUE OPERATION

    MV RAK CASE
    STUDY,AUGUST 2011
    MV BINGO SUNK ,OCTOBER 2013

    A cargo ship named MV Bingo sank on 12 October, 2013 in the vicinity of Sagar

    island in the northern Bay of Bengal in the wake of very severe cyclone Phailin.

    The Indian coast guard sought the help of INCOIS to locate personnel left the ship

    in a life raft on Sun, Oct 13, 2013 at 0917 hrs IST. Accordingly the trajectory from

    the last known position 21 13.9' N, 088 11.6' E (off sagar islands) of MV BINGO

    was generated using GNOME. Model was forced with forecasted ROMS currents

    and ECMWF winds. The predicted trajectory was found to be moving towards the

    coast. That information was sent to Indian coast guard. Finally, the Coast Guard

    found the beached life raft near Digga Mohan at 2138'20.1" N, 87 31'8.5" E within

    3.5 km of predicted location. The prediction of the likely path of the raft helped the

    Indian coast guard in finding the life raft, and in turn saving the 18 crew members.

    ONLINE OIL SPILL ADVISORY SYSTEM
    LAUNCH - EXPERIMENTAL SET UP OF OOSA,12.05.2014 OOSA BETA VERSION
    1. The Experimental set up of GNOME based Online
    Oil Spill Advisory system is launched for the Indian
    Coast guard, port authority, maritime boards and
    other agencies involved in clean up measures
    2. OOSA will generate the predicted trajectory after
    submitting the details of the spilled oil. The trajectory
    will be displayed in an open layers web map
    indicating the nearby locations with respect to
    time.
    3. Future upgradation includes the integration of
    Hydrodynamic outputs from flow model 21 flexible
    mesh (mike 21)
    4. Various officials from ICG, RIL, ONGC, PORTS have
    registered this product .
