Selection of Oil Spill Response Equipment for Onshore Operations
Journal Title: Scientific Work - Year 2025, Vol 19, Issue 5
Abstract
The selection of appropriate oil spill response equipment is critical for effective containment, recovery, and remediation of spills occurring in onshore environments. Unlike offshore incidents, onshore oil spills often take place near sensitive ecosystems, industrial sites, or populated areas, requiring a rapid and well-coordinated response to minimize environmental and public health risks. This article explores key criteria for selecting response equipment tailored to onshore applications, including terrain conditions, spill volume, accessibility, and environmental sensitivity. The paper categorizes equipment into containment, recovery, storage, and cleaning technologies, and evaluates their suitability across various scenarios such as pipeline leaks, tank failures, and transport accidents. Additionally, the study highlights the importance of site-specific risk assessments and preparedness planning in guiding equipment selection. Emphasis is placed on the integration of innovative tools, such as sorbent materials, portable skimmers, vacuum systems, and bioremediation agents, as well as the role of training and drills in enhancing operational readiness. By providing a structured framework for equipment selection, this article aims to support environmental professionals, and emergency responders in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of onshore oil spill response strategies.
