Dispersant Stockpiles February 13, 2019

Presquille, LA

Oil spill removal organizations (OSRO) maintain stockpiles of dispersants to use to mitigate the impact of an oil spill. In this photo, the chemical dispersants are stored in totes in a warehouse that are ready to load onto aircraft or vessels to support response operations. The use of dispersants is a response tactic that helps to mitigate the impact of a spill. When dispersants are applied to a slick, they break up the oil into lots of small droplets. These tiny droplets have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, making them easier for oil-eating microbes to break them down (through the process of biodegradation). Dispersant application strategies are listed in the Oil Spill Response Plans maintained by offshore facility owners and operators. BSEE Preparedness Analysts from the Oil Spill Preparedness Division (OSPD) regularly inspect these plans and dispersant stockpiles and application equipment to ensure compliance with regulations and to monitor the overall vigor of the oil spill preparedness and response community.
