A weathering study including dispersibility testing has been conducted on Skogul crude oil. The study comprised a standardized small-scale laboratory - and a meso-scale flume testing conducted at 13 °C. In addition, dispersants have been tested simulating subsea dispersant injection (SSDI) on a...

A high proportion of the total microplastic (MP) load in the marine environment has been identified as microfibers (MFs), with polyester (PET) and polyamide (PA) typically found in the highest abundance. The potential for negative environmental impacts from MPs may be dependent on their degree of...

Gas dissolution reduces the release of methane to the atmosphere from subsea sources. Being able to predict and assess the methane flux to the atmosphere requires knowledge on gas dissolution and mass transfer. This can be obtained by studying the size evolution of bubbles rising in water. New...
