STF80MK S05016The Nordtest methodology for Oil Spill Identification has over the past 15 years formed an important ""platform"" for solving oil spill identification in many countries worldwide. The recent revision of the Nordtest Methodology (presented e.g. at AMOP, 2002) has refined the Nordtest...

Objectives The main aim of this study was to assess the biological uptake of benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for subjects exposed to fresh crude oil released at sea. Methods: The study included 22 subjects participating in an ‘oil-on-water’ field trial in the North...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping healthcare through advancements in clinical decision support and diagnostic capabilities. While human expertise remains foundational to medical practice, AI-powered tools are increasingly matching or exceeding specialist-level performance across multiple...

This Project Recommendation is a guide for assistance in establishing operational oil spill response strategies for thin oil films of condensates and light crude oils. The Recommendations are based upon the results and findings from the TOF project. Here we describe a method for predicting the...

The main objective for this project was to develop a protocol for conducting bench-top effectiveness testing of subsea injection of dispersants.  The dispersant effectiveness is quantified as a shift in oil droplet size distribution for the chemically dispersed oil compared to the untreated oil...
