Complexity and specifics of elimination of emergency spills of light hydrocarbons in offshore fields

Abstract

Abstract This paper describes the problem and complexity of elimination of gas condensate spill in non-shelf fields. The problems and specifics of emergency gas condensate spill managing are identified. They demonstrate a need for development of a special spill response strategy. The gas condensate spill simulation was performed using the PISCES II software. A summary table of results is presented, physical and chemical properties of gas condensate were analyzed. Relevant conclusions have been drawn.
