Abstract
The paper is devoted to the problem of protecting the environment from accidental environmental pollution from oil spills. Protection against this type of pollution is provided by a set of organizational measures and technical means that are aimed at preventing the occurrence of an accidental spill, stopping the flow of oil into the environment, eliminating the spill and eliminating its consequences. The development basis for a complex of protective measures in the form of a system including organizational measures and technical means was determined. This complex includes an operational procedure, the implementation of which provides effective protection against accidental pollution. The environmental risk assessment algorithm for emergency pollution of the environment during oil spills includes forming technical device groups for each technical object intended for moving oil. For each group, the environmental risk assessment is carried out by determining possible damage and the probability of an accidental spill, the causes of accidental spills are analyzed as well.
Highlights
At the present time, inland waterway transport is actively used to deliver oil and petroleum products to consumers [1,2]
Analysis of above mentioned factors allows to develop a local planimetric map of the considered object. It is a direct information source allowing to form a complex of protective organizational measures and technical means
- assessing the possible damage from accidental pollution for each group of technical devices as part of the risk structure study;
Summary
Inland waterway transport is actively used to deliver oil and petroleum products to consumers [1,2]. The delivery process includes the temporary storage and transshipment of oil or petroleum products in ports, as well as their transportation by ships. Such a number of technological operations with oil and a large amount of oil transported determine a high level of environmental hazard, especially in cases of accidental oil spills. Accidental oil spills cause great environmental damage to the environment and, above all, water resources. Such cases are characterized by material damage associated with the loss of a commodity product – oil or petroleum products. The problem of preventing water pollutions during oil spills continues to be urgent [3,4,5]
