Synthetic Evaluation

The decision method based on Fuzzy Synthetic Evaluation is presented to achieve skimmer selection in oil spill response. Firstly, the evaluation index system of skimmer is determined. Secondly, the fuzzy set theory is introduced to achieve quantification of skimmer qualitative indexes and the evaluation matrix of skimmer is established by expert investigation. Then the alternative skimmers are evaluated by the method of Fuzzy Synthetic Evaluation, and the optimal selection of skimmer can be obtained.

ABSTRACT The use of tracking buoys in oil spill response, planning, and training and criteria for the selection of these buoys were studied in conjunction with an experiment conducted in the Gulf of Mexico during March 1994 on the relative motions of several oil spill drifter buoys. For the test, wood chips and cottonseed hulls were used to simulate the motion of the oil. Six different types of buoys and three different positioning and tracking systems, in various combinations, were tested. The first day of the program was conducted in Galveston Bay, the second in the Gulf of Mexico off Galveston. Significant differences were noted in the movements of the various buoys. Analysis of the data from these experiments suggests that tracking of the buoys should occur for a longer time period than in the experiments in order to reduce the influence of positioning errors.

ABSTRACT This paper reviews the main conclusions and recommendations of Canada's 1990 Public Review Panel Report on Tanker Safety and Marine Spills Response Capability concerning oil spill response, as well as the subsequent assessment of various policy options leading to the selection of a government/industry partnership. The framework for marine spill response in Canada was established by legislation in amendments to the Canada Shipping Act. A variety of issues have been raised during consultations in relation to the areas of risk, the equipment needs for responding in a tiered fashion to a 10,000 metric ton spill, the personnel requirements and their training and exercise requirements, the management structure, the fee structures and the role of the advisory councils.

Sea-coastal vulnerability maps to oil included in oil spill response plans minimize damage from spills and response operations themselves. Russian and foreign existing methods for constructing maps are not completely correct, since they are based on calculations using ordinal values, which is unacceptable. There are some problems in case of refusal from ranks: selection of uniform units for measuring density of biota distribution; assessment of vulnerability coefficients for biota living in the water column or on its surface. Possible solutions of these and other problems are given. The adoption of a unified Russian method of vulnerability mapping is discussed.
