Sigyn condensate - properties and behaviour at sea - In relation to oil spill response - OC2017 A-137

A weathering study on Sigyn condensate has been performed at 13"C, in 5mall-scale laboratory. The obtained weathering data were used as input to the SINTEF's Oil Weathering mode! (OWM) to predict the Sigyn condensate behaviour at different weather conditions in a spill situation at sea. The weathering properties are discussed related to oil spill response; mechanical recovery, mechanical dispersion by water flushing, and chemical dispersion
