Abstract

This paper introduces response scenarios used for spill training, planning, and real time oil spill response to be utilized for mitigation of spill accidents. A series of scenarios with the response guidelines and strategies are presented during accidents of crude oil and natural gas (NG) and natural gas liquids (NGL) pipelines.
