Sammendrag
A study of the weathering properties of Gullfaks A blend and Gullfaks C blend crude oils, has been performed at 5°C and 13°C in laboratory scale. The data are used as input to SINTEF Oil Weathering Modell to predict the behaviour of the Gullfaks A and C blends in a spill situation at sea. The weathering properties are discussed in relation to oil spill response, mechanical recovery and chemical dispersion. Mechanical recovery:Formation of viscous emulsions reduces problems with boom leakage in a recovery operation. Boom leakage, due to low viscosity (
