The petroleum industry holds long- and short-term environmental risks. Besides production fluids, all petroleum industry activities involve either use of fluids, which contain abundant substances, or waste generation, both associated with potential risk to the environment. The principal environmental risk associated with the petroleum industry is the risk of fluid spill/emission to the environment. Although in recent decades the risk analysis methodologies have matured, to date there is still no universally accepted methodology for environmental risk assessment in petroleum industry. In this chapter, the petroleum industry’s environmental incident history and statistics are presented. The environmental impact of the petroleum industry’s activities, its extent, and trends are analyzed. The overview of pollution sources with associated environmental risk is given along with the analysis of the causes and consequences of incidents in the petroleum industry.

ABSTRACT It has been pointed out that one of the pitfalls associated with using a combination of computerised oil spill planning tools is the general lack of integration between the different sub-tasks. Det Norske Veritas (DNV) has been developing and using the EMDROPS tool for Environmental Risk Analysis, Response Analysis, and Contingency Planning. EMDROPS employs the MIRA method for Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA), adopted by OLF, the Norwegian Oil Industry Association, thus the results from the ERA can be put directly into the Response Analysis/Response Planning, using the same oil spill and environmental data as used for the ERA. EMDROPS is integrated into a standard GIS (ArcView) which allows the different modules (Oil Spill Modelling, Vulnerable Resources, Environmental Risk Assessment, and Response Planning) to be used in a seamless manner. Some of the data available to the user is the Norwegian Marine Resources Database (MRDB) and an oil spill equipment database which is used by the Environmental Risk Analysis and response effectiveness analysis.
