In late 2015, OSRL began assisting Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) to conduct a capability review as the company formed an oil spill response management team. During the first half of 2016, OSRL continued to support KOC in the development of their oil spill response capability. Find out more through the case study. 

The MV Tasman Spirit, a single-hulled tanker carrying 67,535 tonnes of crude oil destined for the Pakistan National Shipping Corporation (PNSC), ran aground near Karachi port on 27th July 2003.

View the demo of our DECC Level 1 - On-Scene Commander e-learning course. The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) stipulates that all Offshore Installation Managers (OIM’s) and those responsible for activating the installation’s Oil Pollution Emergency Plan (OPEP) are trained to DECC Level 1 standard. The DECC 1 - On-Scene Commander course enables UK oil and gas operators to meet this requirement providing training on key aspects of oil spills such as UK regulation, reporting procedures and response strategies.

View the demo of our Oil Spill Awareness for Vessel Crews e-learning course, developed to give Standby Vessel Masters and Crews, or First Responders in an offshore response, the necessary knowledge to respond quickly and effectively to an offshore oil spill incident.

Through collaboration with OSRL, international oil and gas companies continue to work together through the Subsea Well Response Project (SWRP) to further improve subsea well control incident intervention capabilities.
