OSRL participated in the Oil in Ice training program in Canada after two years due to COVID-19. The training, developed in collaboration with Eastern Canada Response Corporation (ECRC-SIMEC) and Alaska Clean Seas (ACS), allowed attendees to practice oil spill recovery techniques on and under the ice. Despite the extremely cold weather and harsh conditions, the training was a success, providing valuable experience for oil spill response in cold weather conditions.

ATSEA-2 and OSRL held their fourth and final webinar for 2022 on 28 November. The webinar covered Oiled Wildlife Response (OWR), Oil Spill Risk Assessment (OSRA), and a case study from Indonesia. Find out more about quarter-four activities and view all webinars.

ATSEA-2 and OSRL held a Regional Exchange Event in Singapore and the third webinar in the series for 2022. The webinar covered NEBA/SIMA and looked at a case study of a crude palm oil spill in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Find out more about quarter three activities. 

Hear from our new responders as they talk about their last few weeks of our offliners course.

The UK Responders continue their journey through the offliners course to prepare them for responding to oil spills globally. James Thompson, UK Responder, participating in the course talks about weeks 5 and 6 and having their first offshore experience.

The recent return to overseas training flights provided some local enthusiasts an opportunity to view the aircraft with the 2Excel crew; Flying in Ireland has published an article from the visit, written by author Gabriel Desmond.

OSRL's newest responders have continued their learnings in the last couple of weeks with response techniques covering aerial Surveillance, Fate of Oil, Environmental Considerations, Waste Management & Contingency Planning through insightful and informative presentations, followed in week four with some practical hands-on experience with response equipment.

The response team at our Singapore base recently run their very first shoreline exercise of 2022. This enabled the response team to refamiliarise and test themselves with response operations.

It is hard to believe we are already four weeks into the Bahrain offline programme.
