Abstract

In the Sea of Okhotsk, crude oil production had started in the summer of 1999, on the northeastern shelf of Sakhalin Island. And crude oil was exported by oil tanker from July to November because of ice foes in the winter season. However, it is planed to continue the production of crude oil through the year by sub sea pipelines. This development increases the risk of oil spill accident in the ice-covered waters.In this paper, experimental study is presented in order to investigate the behavior of crude oil spreading among pack ice. The experiments were carried out including model pack ice consist of the board of circular ice, and some cases of different discharge, volume conditions and ice concentrations.
