Kvitebjørn condensate – Weathering properties and behaviour at sea - In relation to oil spill response

A weathering study has been conducted on the Kvitebjørn condensate. This study is based on a small-sea le laboratory testing at 13 °C. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) was used to predict the weathering properties of the Kvitebjørn condensate if spilled on the sea surface. The weathering properties were also discussed in relation to oil spill response.
