EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On the basis of the issued Terms of Reference (ToR) by Ministry of
Environment & Forest, Delhi and also in compliance to the Oil Industry Safety
Directorate (OISD), who has decided that all the Ports and Oil Companies
should create Tier-I facilities to combat the oil spill, AHPPL requested Environ
Software (P) Ltd, Bangalore, to carry out oil spill risk analysis and oil spill
contingency plan for the proposed Multi-Cargo Port by Adani Hazira Port Pvt.
Limited, Hazira. AHPPL proposes to arrange the oil fighting equipment/gears
based on the oil spill response plan and recommendations given by
ENVIRON and give the overall responsibility to Adani Hazira Port Authority for
maintenance and combating oil spills.
Objectives
Risk analysis for all operations with respect to oil spills in and around the Muti-Cargo Port.
Oil spill modeling for spillage in the vicinity of the south and north break waters.
Identification of all the potential oil spill scenarios from the Port.
Quantitative assessment of the impact of each scenario.
Various spill scenarios shall be ranked based on the probability and consequence.
Prediction of trajectories of the spills in marine environment under various meteorological and hydrological conditions in different spill scenarios.
Identification of probable impact areas and magnitude of sequence.
To prepare an appropriate contingency oil spill response plan to match the perceived risk.

Approach Study
Hydrodyn-OILSOFT has been validated successfully based on the available tide and current data.
The software has been run for various seasons to study the hydraulic behaviour of the Gulf of Khambhat, in and around Multi-cargo Port in particular.
Several computational runs have been made for predicting the fate and weathering processes of HSD, Crude and Fuel Oil spills at Port and approach channel area.
The spill quantity has been selected as per Tier–I specification Fuel oils have been considered to have more impact on the environment
rather than other refined products.
Study has been carried out for operational leakage at port during loading/unloading operations as well as for accidental spills.
The details of spill volume and time taken to reach the coast and losses during its movement for various seasons have been furnished in the report
The weathering processes of HSD, Crude and Fuel Oil at Port and approach channel for three seasons have been presented graphically.
Resources such as, marine sensitive areas, tidal flats, islands and coastal areas which are likely to be threatened from oil spills have been identified.
Oil spill contingency plan has been prepared as per IMO guidelines.
Strategy and Operational plans have been discussed in detail and formulated based on the risk analysis.

1. INTRODUCTION
The location of the proposed Multi-cargo Port (Fig.1.1), Hazira by Adani Hazira
Port Private Limited (AHPPL) is situated on the West Side of the Hazira
Peninsula at approximately Latitude: 21o 06’ North, Longitude: 72o 37’ East.
The LNG terminal is situated in the inter-tidal zone directly west of the forest
boundary line. A corridor of 30 m width between the LNG terminal and the actual
forest boundary line is reserved for a future Northern rail link. The port layout
aims at maximum operability and expansion potential. Sufficient clearance to the
existing surroundings has been maintained, including a minimum encroachment
into the greenbelt and adequate distance to populated areas. The layout of the
complex allows space for future extension, without compromising desired safety
separation distances within the complex or to adjacent port activities.

1.1.4 Sea Conditions The details on sea condition parameters are as follows;
1.2 Waves Predominant waves entering the Multi-cargo Port, Hazira have periods within a
range of 6 – 10 s. These arise mainly just before and during the monsoons and
their direction of approach is mainly south-west. Waves inside the harbour are
refracted and diffracted into a constant pattern as they progress up the harbour.
They are substantially attenuated by the time they reach Multi-cargo Port, Hazira.
1.2.1 Cyclones
These may occur in the period May/ June or October/November. The last severe
cyclonic storm was experienced in 1982. Occasionally, sudden high winds also
occur during the fine weather period from N. E.
‘Climatological Tables of Observatories in India (1931-1960)’, an India
Meteorological Department publication, provided historical data of the region.
Surat is the nearest observatory of the met office. The climate at Hazira is
tropical and characterized by annual recurring seasons, as mentioned below in
Table 1.6. The long-term analysis of micro-meteorological conditions based on
30 years data, was carried out for the post-monsoon, winter and summer

Currents
Due to the large vertical tidal ranges, appreciable tidal currents occur in the tidal
channels around the harbour location. The currents in this channel are directed
NNW during flood and SSE during ebb. During the Fugro Meta Ocean Survey in
2000/2001 the current velocities were measured at four locations

The observed maximum flood velocities are generally higher than the ebb
velocities. This flood domination is associated with the total tidal volume. The
smaller ebb volume still produces considerable velocities, as the cross section of
the channel is also smaller during ebb, which may result from the lower water
levels and drying of large areas.
Meteorological effects
Special attention must be paid to wind driven currents. Two different situations
with respect to this phenomenon may be distinguished: persistent circulation by
monsoon winds short duration effects from storms or cyclones.
Monsoon winds and circulation
From March to September, during the SW monsoon, a clockwise circulation
persists in the Arabian Sea, south of the Gulf of Khambhat, for which the Pilot
predicts average rates of 1 knot up to 2 knots in more extreme conditions (see
figure 1). Along the West Coast of India this current will have a southerly
direction and will therefore deflect towards SE by the time it reaches the Gulf of
Khambhat. It may therefore be assumed that the coastal area in front of Hazira is
hardly influenced by this current.
In early September the SW Monsoon starts to retreat towards the SE. In October
and November there is a transitional period with light variable winds with sea and
land breezes. Occasional tropical cyclones may be experienced.
From November to January, during the NE monsoon, the circulation is reversed;
the most common sets are to NW, usually at rates of less than 0.5 knots. But
there is considerable variability particularly during the NE monsoon.
Wind conditions
Wind velocities were concluded from measured wind speed and direction at site by HPPL The prevailing wind direction is from 2400. The wind rose diagram and wind class frequency diagram for year 2009 has been shown below.

1.3 Project Information:
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited has proposed to construct Multi Cargo berths
in the Hazira Basin for loading / unloading operations. AHPPL proposes to have
general cargo construct Multi cargo terminal as well as dedicated liquid cargo
terminal as a part of its overall project development plan. It is expected that the
cargo traffic will have potential risk involved during their movement. The oil spills
would be due to collision/ grounding of the vessels while approaching the port as
well as berthing at jetty, loading and unloading of POL products etc.
The extent of damage caused by an oil spill depends upon the quantity of the oil
spilled, type of oil involved in the spillage and the oceanographic and
meteorological conditions prevailing in the location where the spill has occurred.
When the oil spills in large quantity, it temporarily effects the air-sea interaction
thus prevailing entry of oxygen from the atmosphere. Oil spills can also have a
serious economic impact on coastal activities and on those who exploit the
resources of the sea. In most cases, such damage is temporary and is caused
primarily by the physical properties of oil creating nuisance and hazardous
condition. The impact on marine life is compounded by toxicity and tainting
effects resulting from the chemical composition of oil. Other amenities that are
affected include mangrove forests, coral reefs, and several marine resources
including tourism industry.
The only challenge before any oil industry/Government agency is to tackle the
spill very efficiently and quickly so that the impact can be minimized. This can be
achieved provided there is well drawn Contingency Plan and enough resources.
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited (AHPPL), decided to carryout modeling studies
for Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency planning for Adani Hazira Port,
predicting the oil weathering characteristics and spillage area at different time

at Adani Hazira Port. In this connection AHPPL requires modeling report
describing the feasibility study in general about the present status and overall
response of the environment to the port activities pertaining to the oil spill due to
various marine facilities. Various numerical experiments have to be carried out in
the prediction of oil spill fate and weathering characteristics, trajectory and area
under various meteorological and environmental conditions.
In the present study, Hydrodyn-OILSOFT is used for prediction of fate and
transport of instantaneous or continuous oil spills and the associated risk due to
various cargo handling activities at AHPPL, Hazira.

3. OIL CHARACTERISTICS AND WEATHERING PROCESSES
Oil is considered as a major pollutant of the ocean. It enters the marine
environment through numerous sources. The most conspicuous source of oil
pollution is, of course, accidental spills from tankers due to collision/grounding
or from offshore drilling and production platforms.
When oil is spilled at sea, it undergoes a number of physical and chemical
changes, some of which lead to its disappearance from the sea surface.
Although spilt oil is eventually assimilated by the marine environment, the time
involved depends upon such factors as the amount of oil spilled; its initial
physical and chemical characteristics; the prevailing climatic and sea
conditions and whether the oil remains at sea or is washed ashore.
A knowledge of the process involved, and how they interact to alter the nature
and composition of the oil with time is valuable in preparing and implementing
contingency and oil spill response plan. On occasions, it may prove
unnecessary to mount a clean-up response if it can be confidently predicted
that the oil will drift away from vulnerable areas or dissipate naturally before
reaching them. Often, however, an active response will be necessary, aimed
either at accelerating the natural processes through the use of dispersants, or
limiting spreading by means of containment methods.
3.1 Composition of Oil
Crude oil is an extremely complex mixture of hydrocarbons ranging in
molecular weight from 16 (methane) to possibly 100,000. In addition to
carbon and hydrogen, these hydrocarbons may also contain small quantities
of oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen and trace amounts of metals. The number of
individual compounds making up what is called petroleum is in the hundreds
of thousands, and may approach 1 million discrete compounds. These
materials cover a wide range of boiling points from volatile to waxy residues.

Page No: 14
In addition, composition varies widely from source to source. Even refined
products, such as gasoline or fuel oils, which are processed to obtain selected
portions of crude oil, are still complicated mixtures that have not been
completely defined.
The three principal classes of hydrocarbons found in crude oil are alkanes
(paraffins), cycloalkanes (naphthenes), and aromatics. Trace quantities of
alkenes (olefins), which are unsaturated chain compounds, may also be found
in crude oil. They are often found in refined products.
In general, the toxicity of crude oil increases along the hydrocarbon series;
alkanes are less toxic than cycloalkanes and alkenes, which are less toxic
than aromatics. Within each series of hydrocarbons, the smaller molecules
are more toxic than the larger
3.2 Properties of Oil
In considering the fate of spilled oil at sea, a distinction is frequently made
between non-persistent oils, which tend to disappear rapidly from the sea
surface, and persistent oils, which in contrast dissipate more slowly and
usually require a clean-up response. Non-persistent oils include gasoline,
naphtha, kerosene and diesel whereas most crude oils and heavy refined
products have varying degrees of persistence depending on their physical
properties and the size of the spill.
Crude oils of different origin have a wide range of physical and chemical
properties, whereas refined products have well-defined properties irrespective
of the crude oil from which they are derived.
The main physical properties which affect the behavior of oil spilt at sea are
specific gravity, distillation characteristics, viscosity and pour point. Typical
fractionation of a crude oil is given in table 3.1

3.3 Weathering Processes
The physical and chemical changes, which spilled oil undergo are sometimes
collectively known as weathering. Although, the individual processes which
bring about these changes act simultaneously, their relative importance during
the lifetime of an oil slick varies. The main processes are as follows:
Spreading
Evaporation
Dispersion
Emulsification
Dissolution
Oxidation
Sedimentation
Biodegradation
The processes of spreading, evaporation, dispersion, emulsification and
dissolution are most important during the early stages of a spill whilst
oxidation, sedimentation and biodegradation are long term processes which
determine the ultimate fate of oil. Fig.3.1 shows schematic diagram of
weathering processes with time.
It should be appreciated that throughout the lifetime of an oil slick it continues
to drift on the sea surface, independent of these processes. The actual
mechanisms governing movement are complex but experience shows that oil
drift can be predicted by taking into account wind-induced effects and surface
water currents. These can be calculated separately and then combined using
vector diagrams to determine the resulting oil movement. The wind induced
effect is normally taken as 3% of the wind velocity, and the current effect as
100% of the current velocity. Reliable prediction of slick movement is clearly
dependent upon the availability of good wind and current data. The later is
sometimes difficult to obtain. For some areas, it is presented on charts or

tidal stream atlases but for many other areas, only general information is
available.
An understanding of the way in which weathering processes interact is
important in forecasting their combined effect in changing the characteristics
of different oils and the lifetime of slicks at sea. In order to predict such
interactions, numerical models have been developed, based on theoretical or
empirical considerations, or a combination of both.
3.4 Effects of Marine Oil Spills
The extent of damage caused by an oil spill depends upon the quantity of oil
spilled, type of oil involved in the spillage and the oceanographic and
meteorological conditions prevailing in the location where the spill has
occurred. When the oil spills in large quantity, it temporarily affects the air-
sea interaction, thus preventing the entry of oxygen from the atmosphere. The
first sets of organisms affected are the primary producers like phytoplankton
which is the basis of the marine food chain. The other free-swimming
organisms such as fish larvae and fish eggs also get affected. Further, when
the oil sinks during the course of time, it affects the benthic organisms such as
clams and mussels. The other amenities that are affected include mangrove
forests, coral reefs and several marine resources.
Oil spills can also have a serious economic impact on coastal activities and
resources of the sea. In most cases, such damage is temporary and is
caused primarily by the physical properties of oil creating nuisance and
hazardous conditions. The impact on marine life is compounded by toxicity
and tainting effects resulting from the chemical composition of oil, as well as
by the diversity and variability of biological systems and their sensitivity to oil
pollution. Tables 3.2- 3.3 present effects of oil on marine populations and
communities and in major ecosystem.

4. OIL SPILL CONTINGENCY PLAN
Careful planning is an essential preparation for any successful operation,
especially an emergency one. There is often concern for the effects on the
environment, fisheries, industry and recreation as well as considerations of public
health and safety. There will inevitably be conflicting interests and the news
media are always quick to expose any indecision, weakness or disagreement.
Such situations are easier to resolve when a well-prepared and tested
contingency plan is available.
Response to accidental spillage of oil is a typical example. Many people may be
affected by an oil spill and many organizations have duties to perform apart from
the task of physical clean-up. For example, an incident involving lightening of
vessel and salvage activities, all of which may impinge upon any oil spill
response.
4.1. Scope and Content of Plans
Most oil spills are small and can be dealt with locally. Should the incident prove
beyond the local capability or affect a larger area, an enhanced but compatible
response will be required. The foundation of this tiered response is the local plan
for a specific facility such as a berth or for a length of coastline at risk from spills.
These local plans may form part of a larger district or national plan. National
plans may in turn be integrated into regional response arrangements covering
two or more neighbouring countries.
In general, contingency plans should follow a similar layout irrespective of
whether they are local, national or regional in scope though their length and
content will vary with the size of the area covered and degree of risk. Similarly in
layout will enable the plans to be easily understood, will assist compatibility and
ensure a smooth transition from one level to the next.

Contingency plans are best divided into two main parts: the first should be a
descriptive policy document outlining the overall Strategy while the second forms
the Operational Plan and should be concerned with procedures to be followed
when a spill occurs. The strategy segment of the plan should define the policy
responsibilities and rationale for the operational plan which is essentially an
action checklist with pointers to information sources. A plan should be reasonably
complete in itself and should not entail reference to a number of other
publications, which causes delay. A loose-leaf format facilitates regular updating
and there should be provision for listing and dating amendments.

5 Perceived Risks and Expected Quantities of Oil Spill
5.1 Introduction
Quantitative risk analysis studies of the accidental release of HSD / Crude / Fuel
oils require several physical, chemical and thermodynamic properties of the
same. Some of the data was provided by AHPPL and rest of the data were taken
from the available literature with Cell for Industrial and Safety and Risk Analysis
(CISRA), Central Leather Research Institute (CLRI) of Council of Scientific and
Industrial Research (CSIR), Chennai etc to find the chemical and physical
properties. When a particular product was the mixture of hydrocarbons, the
properties of the constituents were suitably analysed and averaged. These
properties are essential in estimating the consequences.
Additionally, meteorological information such as temperature, wind speed, wind
direction, humidity etc. are necessary to calculate evaporation, dispersion and
combustion.
Accident scenarios for quantitative risk assessment are created based on the
inputs from AHPPL past accident information and engineering judgment.
5.2 Overview of Historical Oil Spills
Accidents do occur owing to poor memories of personnel associated with the job,
directly or indirectly. Thus, there is a continuous need to review the causes and
consequences of past accidents, which provide invaluable information for better
designs and safe operations of the plants.
Several accidents involving petroleum products have been reported in the
literature. Past accidents involving Petro-products are shown in Table-5.1 to
Table-5.7. It is clear from the table that accidents occurred due to a wide variety
of causes viz., transportation, storage, filling, etc. The releases occur from
several sources such as pipelines, tank farms, reactor vessels, refinery or

separation units, etc. Past accident data related to major oil spills worldwide and
major oil spills in Indian water are presented Table –5.3.
The table (Table 5.1) gives a brief summary of 28 major oil spills since 1967. A
number of these incidents, despite their large size, caused little or no
environmental damage as the oil did not impact coastlines, hence some of the
names will be unfamiliar to the general public. The Exxon Valdez is included
because it is so well known although it is not the 21st largest spill but rather the
35th.

The incidence of large spills is relatively low and detailed statistical analysis is
rarely possible, consequently emphasis is placed on identifying trends. Thus, it is
apparent from the table below that the number of large spills (>700 tones) has
decreased significantly during the last thirty-eight years. The average number of
large spills per year during the 1990s was less than a third of that witnessed
during the 1970s. Figures further show that there has been a general decrease in
the number of spills over 7 tones and that there have been proportionally fewer
large spills (> 700 tones) than smaller ones.
The vast majority of spills are small (i.e. less than 7 tones) and data on numbers
and amounts is incomplete. However in most years it is probable that they make
a relatively small contribution to the total quantity of oil spilled into the marine
environment as a result of tanker accidents. Table 5.4 shows the data on spills 7
tones and above is held and the amounts of oil spilt during these incidents have
been added to give a series of annual estimates of the total quantity spilled for
the years 1970-2008.

It is notable from Table-5.5 that a few very large spills are responsible for a high
percentage of the oil spilt. For example, in the ten-year period 1990-1999 there
were 358 spills over 7 tones, totalling 1,138 thousand tones, but 830 thousand
tones (73%) were spilt in just 10 incidents (just under 3%). The figures for a
particular year may therefore be severely distorted by a single large incident.
This is clearly illustrated by 1979 (Atlantic Empress - 287,000 tones), 1983
(Castillo de Bellver - 252,000 tones) and 1991 (ABT Summer - 260,000t ones).
Approximately 5.65 million tones of oil were lost as a result of tanker incidents
from 1970 to 2008.
Table- 5.5: Number Quantity of Oil spilt
Table-5.6 gives the number of oil spills occurred along with quantity of oil spilled
and the operations associated during 1974 to 2008 It is found that, most spills
from tankers result from routine operations such as loading, discharging and
bunkering which normally occur in ports or at oil terminals, the majority of these
operational spills are small, with some 91% involving quantities of less than 7
tons and accidents involving collisions and groundings generally give rise to
much larger spills, with at least 84% involving quantities in excess of 700 tons.

It is apparent from the Table 5.7 that:
Most spills from tankers result from routine operations such as loading, discharging and bunkering which normally occur in ports or at oil terminals;
The majority of these operational spills are small, with some 91% involving quantities of less than 7 tones;
Accidental causes such as collisions and groundings generally give rise to much larger spills, with at least 84% of incidents involving quantities in excess of 700 tones being attributed to such factors.
5.3 Failure frequency of pipeline transfer and storage tank
The reliability data of pipelines and atmospheric storage tanks are presented here from the international database and hence these can be taken as indicative
The probabilities of pipe ruptures are presented below: d 50 mm 1 x 10-10/m hr. 50 < d 150 mm 3 x 10-11/m hr. d > 150 mm or greater 1 x 10-11/m hr. Underground pipeline failure 6.1 x 10-12/m hr.
Where‘d’ is the diameter of pipe
The probability of hose failures are presented below: Loading arm failure 3 x 10-8/hr. Flexible hose pipe failure 4 x 10-5/hr.
Storage tank failure rate 3 x 10-4/yr
Based on the above failure frequency, it is apparent that the failure rate of the
flexible hose pipe ranks higher. The failure rate of above ground pipeline
depends on the pipe size and its length. As the pipe diameter increases, the
failure rate decreases and as the length increases, the failure rate increases.
The failure rate of underground pipeline is relatively much lesser compared to
that of above ground pipeline. The underground pipelines are well designed to
take care of corrosion etc.

The failure rate of loading arm is extremely low because of the sophisticated
safety systems incorporated in the design. Accidental release of any chemical
due to catastrophic rupture of tanks and ship collision are also relatively very low.
The impact due to failure of storage tanks and ship collisions on environment are
very high because of the large quantity released when compared to the pipe
failure.
5.4 Meteorological Data
Atmospheric stability is an important factor for predicting the dispersion
characteristics of spilled oil into the surrounding environment. Change in
atmospheric stability is a direct consequence of the vertical temperature
structure. The stability effects are mathematically represented through Pasquill
parameters. The following stability classification is employed:
Stability Class Atmospheric Condition A Very Unstable B Unstable C Slightly Unstable D Neutral E Stable F Very Stable
Condition of atmospheric stability is estimated by a suitable method that uses
dispersion parameters viz., vertical temperature gradient, wind profile and
roughness factor.
The following meteorological information has been taken in the calculations for the Hazira port area (GMB 2009):
Average ambient temperature 30oC Average wind speed 3 m/s
Stability condition F (Very Stable)
5.5 Expected Quantities of Oil Spill
Oil spill may vary from a few litres of oil due accidental spill to several thousands
of tons of oil during unexpected situations. No company can afford to prepare

itself for mitigating all the possible accident scenarios due to prohibitive costs
associated with the oil spill combat. In line with the standard industry practice
and being a good corporate citizen, AHPPL is planning to procure oil spill
combating equipments in case of any spills from vessel operations (<Tier-1) at
AHPPL berths, while oil spill situations of higher magnitude are to be dealt with
the assistances of Indian Coast Guard, other neighbouring industries, ports etc.
However, it is required to have a fair understanding of the risks and probability of
spills arising out of its vessel operations and their consequences due to
movement and landing along the coast.
The following scenarios are identified for probable oil spills in the vessel operations at AHPPL’s berths:
(i) FO/HSD leakage from fuel tank compartments due to collision/grounding (ii) Leakage due to Loading / unloading operations at Berths (iii) Spills due to Collision in the vessel route and in and around the port
The exact quantity from each incident is difficult to predict due to the variations in
operating conditions and the length of risk exposure. The maximum risks
associated with the events may be considered while devising the oil spill
contingency plan. The worst spill scenario is spillage on the water surface. For
the purpose of simulation, the following scenario is taken into account
considering the above spill risks
5.6 FO / HSD leakage from fuel tank compartments due to collision/ grounding
Vessels are expected to call at the berth frequently for loading and unloading
operations of vessel. These vessels may meet accidents like collision with other
vessels or grounding in the vicinity of the berth. In case of such accidents the
spillage may vary depending on the size of the vessel fuel tank, the extent of
damage and number of vessel fuel compartments ruptured. In the present study
the probable quantity of spills at the berth considered for modelling is about 100
tons and 700 tons, since the large size of vessel has 800 tons to 2000 tons of
fuel tank capacity.

As can be seen above the spill scenarios mentioned above range from extremely
negligible quantities to enormous quantities in rare catastrophic events. The
simulation of oil spills does not vary significantly in various scenarios except the
magnitude of impact zone and the quantity involved in such impacts. The
hypothetical simulations are made in this report considering the worst-case
scenarios.
5.7. Spills due to Collision in vessel route
In the present scenario, collision of a vessel enroute with another vessel can
cause partial damage to the vessel’s Cargo / fuel tanks leading to a maximum oil
spill of about 100 tons to 700 tons of FO / HSD. Hence, in the present study the
probable quantities of oil spills due collision in the vessel route is considered as
100 tons and 700 tons
5.8 Spill due to transfer of POL products at berths
Probability of loading arm failure during operations is extremely low. The loading
arms at berths are provided with Powered Emergency Release Coupling (PERC)
and Emergency Shut Down (ESD) unit. In the event of unusual tension on the
arm the PERC gets activated stopping the cargo operations automatically and
separating the arm from the vessel without draining the arm, thereby preventing
the spill of product under transfer. When PERC is activated only a few tons of oil
may spill. Normally not more than 10 t of oil may spill in such a situation.

6 Oil Spill Modelling Studies
The prediction of fate and transport of oil spill is playing major role in the
analysis of risks due to oil spills. Hence, it is computed based on the surface
resulting forces of surface water currents and wind speed. The following
sections are described about the numerical modeling of hydrodynamics for
surface water flow and Lagrangian Particle discrete model for the fate and
transport of oil spills.
6.1 Modelling of Hydrodynamic Processes
Modelling the hydrodynamic processes is an integral part of modelling of fate
and transport of oil spills. The basic oil-spill model which was used earlier
(NIO, 1999,2000,2001,2002,2008) to track the oil-spill trajectories has been
further modified and improved for use in the present work to estimate risks
due to oil spills for various weathering and meteorological conditions. In this
chapter, hydrodynamic part of the model (flow) and Oil spill model have been
described.
Khambhat is a typical semi-enclosed basin where the tidal forcing interacts
with the open ocean waters of the sea across its southern open boundary,
Valsad. The currents of the region are tidal-driven and the water column is
vertically well mixed. These features make the numerical modelling task
easier, as a 2-D hydrodynamical model is sufficient to accurately reproduce
the tides and currents of the Gulf of Khambhat at Hazira.
6.1.1 Model description
A dedicated software Hydrodyn-OILSOFT for fate and transport of oil spills in
the rivers, seas and estuaries is developed by Environ Software (P) Ltd,
Bangalore, based on the solving the hydrodynamic and oil spill equations
numerically through coupled way using the present state-of-art of technology.

The basic governing equations of flow and oil spill transport is described in the
following sections.
6.1.2 Basic governing equations
Simulation of tides and currents has been carried out by solving the two
dimensional shallow water equations of continuity and momentum. These
equations describing the flow field of the estuary are based on incompressible
flow and vertically integrated hydrostatic distribution. Hence, the vertical
acceleration of the flow is assumed to be much smaller than the pressure
gradient. After applying these conditions, the governing equations of mass
and momentum can be written in the conservation form as follows:
Continuity equation:
0yv
xu
Momentum equations:
where, t = time; x, y are cartesian co-ordinates; u, v are depth averaged
velocity components in x, y directions, respectively; f = Coriolis parameter;
g = acceleration due to gravity; Kx, Ky = diffusion coefficients in x, y
directions, respectively; h= water elevation with respect to mean water level.
6.1.3 Model diffusion coefficients The horizontal diffusion coefficients Kx and Ky are calculated as follows:

where x and y are the diffusion factors in x and y directions and C is the
Chezy coefficient.
6.1.4 Numerical solution algorithm
The transformed governing equations of flow have been discretized on a
staggered grid and solved using Leapfrog trapezoidal scheme through a
predictor and corrector step method. The scheme is fully centered in space
and time and can obtain 2nd order accuracy. The scheme consists of two
level computations predictor and corrector steps within the time step t.
F(Kn)=(K* - Kn-1)/(2 t)
F(Kn)+F(K*)=2(Kn+1 – Kn)/( t)
where, K* = predicted variable level.
Since the range of the co-ordinates in the computational plane is completely
arbitrary, the mesh increments are specified as unity for convenience.
Consequently, the geometric variables are defined on a finite difference mesh
with cell increments of 0.5. The computations have been carried out for the
next time step through predictor and corrector schemes using the above finite
difference quotients.
6.2 Gulf of Khambhat
The model domain of longitudes of 71°06’ E and 72 54E and the latitudes of
19 57’ N and 22 03’’N is selected for carrying out sensitivity analysis and
predicting the fate and transport of oil slick at AHPPL berths.

6.3 Bottom bed-roughness
The bottom roughness in the Gulf of Khambhat varies due to the variation of
bed sediment grain sizes. The bed consists of various sizes of clay, sand, silt
and rocky soils. In the present study a uniform Manning’s roughness
coefficient has been used for numerical runs of hydrodynamic processes. The
same roughness coefficient has been used to predict tides and tidal velocities
in the Gulf area for prediction of oil spill trajectory
6.4 Initial and boundary conditions
The initial conditions for the model are selected based on still water
conditions. The vertical density gradients due to salinity variation have been
neglected since the water column is well mixed and there is no sufficient
inflow into the Gulf. The BFC grid has been adopted to handle the sharp
coastal shape and make fine mesh near the coastline.
Along the northern and southern open boundaries, the boundary conditions
selected are as follows. (i) The predicted tide (using the tide cal software) at
Navabundar and Dahanu for the year 2008 and 2009 (interpolated all along
the southern boundary) (ii) no flux across the eastern and western boundary
of Gulf of Khambhat (iii) free flow across northern open boundary. In this
model, diffusion coefficients for horizontal exchange of momentum vary with
the space.

A series of simulation runs have been made to obtain an insight into the basic
hydrodynamic behavior of the Gulf of Khambhat to tidal forces.
6.6 Modelling of tides and tidal currents
The computational runs in order to obtain better accuracy in the prediction of
oil spill trajectory and weathering processes, a finer mesh is adopted to
represent the study area for modeling purpose. The study domain is between
Latitude 21o 2' 59.028" N - 21 o 8' 41.039" N and Longitude 72 o 34' 30.864" N
- 72 o 38' 23.354" N shown in Fig. A.1.1. The domain is divided into 155 x 90
grids in “x” and “y” directions respectively, shown in Fig. A.1.2. Computational
runs have been made for quantitative spill at locations, to predict the spill
trajectory for a period of 15 days. Fig.A.1.3 shows the interpolated
bathymetric depths. The runs considering various seasons i.e. post-monsoon
(December 2008), Pre-monsoon(March 2009) and Monsoon(June 2009) have
been made and results are presented graphically.
The model clearly reproduces the tidal variation at various locations all along
the Gulf of Khambhat at Hazira. The typical variations of currents during LLW,
peak flood, HHW and peak ebb conditions of spring and neap tides during
post-monsoon (December 2008), Pre-monsoon(March 2009) and
Monsoon(June 2009) are shown in Figs A.1.4 - A.1.12, A.2.1-A.2.8, A.3.1-
A.3.8 respectively.
6.7 Numerical Modelling of Fate and Movement of Oil SpillsThe surface or subsurface oil spill manifests in slick floating on the water
surface, which partially dissolves in the water and partially evaporates into the
atmosphere. There is a continuous exchange between the suspended and
surface oil (floating oil). The assumption made in deriving the governing
equations is that the thickness of the oil layer is negligible in comparison with
the water depth.
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan

Oil spill modeling studiesRevision No: 1
Page No: 46
In addition to the location, size, and physico-chemical properties of the spill,
and other major factors affect the fate of the oil slick which are governed by
complex interrelated transport and weathering processes. The spilled oil
spreads and moves by the forces of winds and currents. A small portions of
hydrocarbons begin to go into solution in the underlying water column, but
most of the oil is lost through evaporation into the atmosphere. In the present
model, all these processes are considered in the transport of Oil Slick.
In most of the oil spill models, drift factor approach has been used. This is
considered to be the most practical method for predicting the advection of oil
slicks. In this method, the mean drift velocity of the surface oil is considered to
be a weighted sum of the wind velocity and depth-averaged current.
ccww vvv
where, vw= the wind velocity at 10 m above the water surface, vc= the depth
averaged velocity, w= the wind drift factor, c=current drift factor. Normally,
wind-induced surface currents have been reported to vary between 1% and
6% of the wind speed, with 3% being the most widely used drift factor in oil
slick models. A value of about 1.1 is generally used for c, assuming that the
velocity distribution over the depth of flow is logarithmic.
The advective velocity of each oil parcel can be a sum of the mean and
turbulent fluctuation components of the drift velocity. The turbulent fluctuation
components are included in the simulation of horizontal diffusion.
6.7.1 Horizontal turbulent diffusion
The horizontal turbulent diffusion due to turbulent fluctuations of the drift
velocity is computed based on random walk analysis.

6.7.2 Mechanical spreading
The spreading of an oil slick is one of the most important processes in the
early stage of the oil slick transformation. The spreading of an oil slick is
determined by the balance between gravitational, viscous and surface tension
forces. The spreading of an oil slick passes through the following three
phases: (i) in the beginning phase, the gravity and inertia forces are balanced,
(ii) in the intermediate phase, the gravity force is balanced by the viscous
force and (iii) in the final phase, the surface tension force is balanced by
viscous force.
6.7.3 Evaporation
Evaporation accounts for the largest loss in oil volume during the early stages
of the slick transformation. It is a function of wind speed at 10 m above the
water surface, spill area, surface temperature of oil and initial vapor pressure
of oil among other parameters. In the present study, the following formulation
is used to calculate the rate of oil evaporated:

where, To is the initial boiling point in degrees Kelvin. The constant, C can be
determined by the relationship TEC =const. The values C and the initial boiling
point To are calculated at TE=283 degrees Kelvin for various types of oils.
For crude oils of different American Petroleum Institute (API) index values, C
and To at TE=283 degrees Kelvin can be calculated by the following
relationships obtained through curve fitting.

6.7.4 Dissolution
Dissolution is an important process to be considered for the possible
biological degradation, although it only accounts for a negligible fraction of the
mass balance of the oil. It is a function of oil slick area, dissolution mass
transferability and oil solubility in water.
In the present study the method of Cohen et al. (1980) is used. In this method,
the total dissolution rate N (gm/h) of the slick is calculated by
N=KAsS

Monasero (1982) calculated the solubility for a typical oil as teSS 0
where, S0 is the solubility for fresh oil, is the decay constant and t is the
time after the spill.
6.7.5 Emulsification
Some quantity of the petroleum hydrocarbons entrains with water particles
increase its total volume due to turbulent fluctuations. It reaches the water
surface due to lighter in density. Emulsified oil is 7% of rate of oil evaporation.

The oil slick will reach the shoreline sometime after a spill occurs. Based on
the half-life formulation, the volume of oil remaining on the beach can be
related to its original volume by

6.8 Simulation of Scenario - Details
In the present study, an extreme scenario has been considered for the model
study. It is assumed that oil leakages can occur in and around AHPPL Port
due to collision / grounding of cargo and spills due to loading and unloading of
POL at berths. Accordingly, the spill locations were considered at berth,
turning circle, approach channel and port entrance as shown in Fig. A.1.1. An
accidental leakage of 100 tons and 700 tons Fuel Oil, HSD and Crude oil
spills were considered for modeling.

6.8.1 Computation Domain and Input data After successful validation of the hydrodynamic model, the same was coupled
with the oil spill model to compute the oil spill trajectories of operational/
accidental/disaster spillage’s. The oil characteristics, bathymetry,
oceanographic parameters such as sea surface temperature, tides and
currents, meteorological parameters such as wind speed and direction, etc.
are given as inputs to the model. The computational grid and bathymetry
depth contours of model domain are shown in Fig. A.1.2 and Fig. A.1.3
respectively.
The meteorological data for the Hazira region for different seasons were used.
The oil characteristics, bathymetry, oceanographic parameters, etc. were
given as an input to the model. It was presumed that FO and HSD would be
as a fuel oil for Cargo Vessel. Though the oil spill undergoes different
physical and chemical changes, dissolution is the main factor to be
considered for assessing the carrying capacity of coastal waters with respect
to petroleum hydrocarbons. The modelling was carried out by coupling the oil
spill model with the hydrodynamic model. Several runs have been made and
results were stored at every hour. The computational runs were carried for the
following scenario discussed in the following sections.

6.9 Results of Scenario
Knowledge of probable movement of an oil slick gives a distinct advantage
while planning response strategies. Thus for instance, no major clean-up
operation is necessary if the modelling results indicate that the spilled oil
would remain at sea thereby sparing the shore ecology. On the contrary, if
modelling results are suggestive of shoreward drift and predict that particular
ecologically sensitive or important areas would be hit, effective counter
measures such as deployment of deflection booms, containment and recovery
of oil etc can be effectively taken.

used for prediction of oil spill scenarios at AHPPL’s berthing activities for
various meteorological and hydrological conditions. The results of various
numerical runs are discussed in the following sections.
6.9.1 Post-monsoon (December 2008)
In the initial period of this season, the resultant of surface currents and wind
currents are towards north and south. The magnitude of resultant forces of
wind and surface currents is varies from 0.0 - 2.00 m/sec depending on tidal
current and wind. The slick moves towards north or south direction based on
the wind and current forcing. The effect of wind forcing is less than surface
current drift. The spills at berths would reach the north break water within 5
hours in early December and some times the spill moves out of the port basin
depending on the tide phase. The spills at turning circle observed to be within
the turning circle for longer duration. The spills at approach channel and at the
entrance of the port move northern and southern directions based on tide
phase. The spill spread and the trajectory are influenced by the wind and
currents differently for enclosed (berths), semi-enclosed (turning circle,
entrance of the port) and open coast (approach channel). The behavior of
slick movement is more or less similar in various scenarios irrespective of
quantities of oil spilled. The area of oil spread differs depending on the
source quantities.
Figs. A.4.1 – A4.36 show the spill trajectories of 100 tons, 700 tons of Fuel oil,
HSD and Crude oil spills in the vicinity of berth, turning circle, vessel route
respectively and operational leakages of 2200 m3/hr at berths. The trajectory
of continuous leakage of FO and HSD oil spill of 100 tons and 700 tons for
three days are shown in Fig. A4.37 to A4.44. The details of spill losses during
its movement and time taken to reach the coast or crosses the model
boundary from all locations have been furnished in Table 6.1. From the table,
it can be concluded that nearly 7%-20% of oil volume has been lost due to
evaporation depending on the type of the oil.

6.9.2 Pre-monsoon(March 2009)
In the initial period of this season, the resultant of surface currents and wind
currents are towards north and south. The magnitude of resultant forces of
wind and surface currents is varies from 0.0 - 2.00 m/sec depending on tidal
current and wind. The slick moves towards north or south direction based on
the wind and current forcing. The effect of wind forcing is less than surface
current drift. The spills at berths would reach the north break water within 4 to
5 hours in early December and some times the spill moves out of the port
basin depending on the tide phase. The spills at turning circle observed to be
within the turning circle for longer duration and moves out of the port domain
depending on tidal condition. The spills at approach channel and at the
entrance of the port move southern directions based on tide phase. The spill
spread and the trajectory are influenced by the wind and currents differently
for enclosed (berths), semi-enclosed (turning circle, entrance of the port) and
open coast (approach channel). The behavior of slick movement is more or
less similar in various scenarios irrespective of quantities of oil spilled. The
area of oil spread differs depending on the source quantities.
Figs. A.5.1 – A5.36 show the spill trajectories of 100 tons, 700 tons of Fuel oil,
HSD and Crude oil spills in the vicinity of berth, turning circle, vessel route
respectively and operational leakages of 2200 m3/hr at berths. The trajectory
of continuous leakage of FO and HSD oil spill of 100 tons and 700 tons for
three days are shown in Fig. A5.37 to A5.44. The details of spill losses during
its movement and time taken to reach the coast or crosses the model
boundary from all locations have been furnished in Table 6.1. From the table,
it can be concluded that nearly 7%-20% of oil volume has been lost due to
evaporation depending on the type of the oil.
6.9.3 Monsoon(June 2009)
In the initial period of this season, the resultant of surface currents and wind
currents are towards North in outside of the port basin. The magnitude of the

resultant of wind and surface currents are about from 0.0- 1.7 m/sec
depending on tidal phase. The slick moves towards north and south direction
based on the wind and currents forcing. The effect of current forcing is
significantly higher than surface wind drift in open coast (approach channel).
The spills at berth inside the port would reach the eastern side of the quay
within 2.0 hours in early June. The behavior of slick movement is more or less
similar in various scenarios irrespective of quantities of oil spilled. The area of
oil spread differs depending on the source quantities. Fig.A.6.1 – Fig.A.6.36
show the spill trajectory of 100 tons & 700 tons leakage of Fuel oil, HSD and
Crude oil spills at Berths, Turning circle, entrance of the port and approach
channel respectively.
Figs. A.6.31– A.6.36 show the spill trajectory of 39 tons (2200 m3/hr for 1
minute spill) operation leakage of Crude oil spill at Berths. Figs. A.6.37–
A.6.44 show the spill trajectory of 100 tons and 700 tons continuous leakage
of FO and HSD for 3 days at entrance of the Port and at approach channel
respectively. The details of spill losses during its movement and time taken to
reach the coast from all locations have been furnished in Table 6.1. From the
table, it can be concluded that nearly 7% - 20% of oil volume has been lost
due to evaporation.
6.10 Shore Landing and Spill Impact Areas
The spills at different locations may reach the coast / shore / break waters
depending on the trajectory followed by the spill. Hydrodyn-OILSOFT predicts
the landing location and likely impacted stretch
6.10.1 Post-monsoon (December 2008) During this period Oil spills of approximately 80%-90% of spilled oil at berth
moves within the quay area within 1-2 hours of the spill. The details of volume
of spill are furnished in table 6.1.

6.10.2 Pre-monsoon(March 2009)
During this period Oil spills of approximately 70%-80% of spilled oil at berth
moves within the quay area within 6-7 hours of the spill. The details of volume
of spill are furnished in table 6.1.
6.10.3 Monsoon(June 2009) During this period Oil spills of approximately 78%-90% spilled oil at berth
moves within the quay area within 3-4 hours of the spill. The details of volume
of spill are furnished in table 6.1
6.11 Fate and Effects
The spilled FO, HSD and Crude oil undergoes a number of physical and
chemical changes (weathering). The major weathering processes are
spreading, evaporation, dispersion, emulsification, dissolution, oxidation,
sedimentation and biodegradation. The last three processes are long-term
processes, which determine the ultimate fate of the Fuel oil and HSD. The
remaining processes are the most important during early stages of the spill,
especially in coastal and inshore areas. Fig.A.7.1 - Fig.A.7.10 show the
variation of oil volume, spill radius, oil density and volumes of evaporated,
dissolved and emulsified oil (FO, HSD and Crude oil spill of 100 tons and 700
tons) at AHPPL Berth during December 2008. Fig.A.8.1-Fig.A.8.10 show the
variation of oil volume, spill radius, oil density and volumes of evaporated,
dissolved and emulsified oil (FO, HSD and Crude oil spill of 100 tons) at
AHPPL Berth during March 2009. Fig.A.9.1-Fig.A.9.10 show the variation of oil
volume, spill radius, oil density and volumes of evaporated, dissolved and
emulsified oil (FO, HSD and Crude oil spill of 100 tons and 700 tons) at
AHPPL Berth, during June 2009.
6.11.1 Evaporation The rate and extent of evaporation depends primarily on the volatility of the
oil. In general terms, the oil components with a boiling point below 200o C
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited, Hazira
Oil spill modeling studiesRevision No: 1
Page No: 57
evaporate within 5 to 6 hrs under tropical conditions. Spills of refined
products such as kerosene and gasoline evaporate completely and light crude
volume within a few hours. In contrast, Fuel oils undergo very little
evaporation. The fate and weathering processes of oil spills during various
seasons for various quantities are shown in from Figs A.7.1-A.7.10, A.8.1-
A.8.10 and A9.1 to A.9.10 for the three seasons respectively. From these
figures, it can be seen that nearly 10%-20% volume of oil will be evaporated
during its movement.
6.11.2 Emulsification Several oils have tendency to absorb water to form water-in-oil emulsions
thereby increasing the volume of the emulsified mass by a factor of 3 to 4.
Oils with asphaltene contents greater than 0.5% tend to form stable emulsions
often referred to as ‘Chocolate mousse’ while those with less asphaltene
disperse faster. The rate at which an oil is emulsified is largely a function of
sea state though viscous oils absorb water slowly. In turbulent sea conditions
low viscosity oils can incorporate as high as 80% water by volume within 2 to
3 hrs. Figs A.7.1-A.7.10, A.8.1-A.8.10 and A9.1 to A.9.10 for the three
seasons respectively show the emulsification processes of oil spill for various
spill volumes during various seasons.
6.11.3. Dissolution
The heavy components of FO are virtually insoluble in seawater while lighter
compounds, particularly aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene and toluene are
slightly soluble. Hence levels of dissolved petroleum hydrocarbons rarely
exceed 1 ppm following a spill. Evidently, dissolution does not make a
significant contribution to the removal of oil from the sea surface. Figs A.7.1-
A.7.10, A.8.1-A.8.10 and A9.1 to A.9.10 show the dissolution during the three
seasons respectively

Clean-up StrategyRevision No: 1

7 CLEAN-UP STRATEGY
There are a number of techniques to remove the oil floating on the sea. The
clean-up strategy should be determined in relation to the assessment of the
risk of spills and to the defense of agreed priorities for protection. The
limitations of spill control techniques must be appreciated and the most
suitable equipment must be chosen for the anticipated range of weather
conditions and oil types. Various methods for clean-up of oil spills are: use of
booms, skimmers, absorbents, chemical dispersants and burning.
7.1 Booms
Booms are used for oil collection, deflection, containment/concentration and
protection.
Boom selection for a given situation must take into account the following
considerations:
The circumstances under which the boom will operate, i.e whether conditions,
wave heights, open or enclosed water, current speeds etc.
Logistic requirements, i.e. are they to be used at a fixed site, or will they need
to be easily transported?
Availability of man power and equipment to deploy the boom.
The necessity of making different types of booms, compatible to each other.
Booms can be deployed either:
(i). in the event of an oil spill
(ii). during the transfer operations
(iii). permanent deployment
Booms should be suitable for the operation in relatively shallow waters,
where high currents and choppy waves can be expected.
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited,Hazira
Clean-up StrategyRevision No: 1
Page No: 62
Booms also should have adequate reserve buoyancy to operate under
the above conditions.
Booms should have longer shelf life (> 5 years).
Booms should have easy handling facilities and compact storage
system.
Floating barriers should have good stability, buoyancy and corrosion
resistance for the oil spill containment solution.
7.2 Skimmers
A skimmer is a mechanical device designed to recover the oil or oily water
mixtures from the surface of the water, particularly where it has concentrated
in thicker layers against a boom or other obstacles. The efficiency of a
skimmer will depend on several parameters such as :
Operator skill
Oil thickness
Oil viscosity or degree of emulsification
Debris handling capability
Drag in action
Sea state
Storage capabilities
People deploying skimmers should be aware of three important points:
They must be selective in their choice of skimmer type
No skimmer will be 100% effective
Any skimmer will generally recover a mixture of oil and water. An oil
and water separator will be necessary
The main application for skimmers is in sheltered waters. Some can be used
in open seas but it is generally considered that when waves are higher than 2
meters (6 feet), the efficiency is very low. Skimmers should be used in
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan

Clean-up StrategyRevision No: 1

conjunction with containment booms to maximise recovery efficiency,
because they increase slick thickness.
7.3 Sorbents
Sorbents are defined as any material that recovers oil through either
absorption, in which the oil penetrates into the pores of the sorbent material,
or adsorption, in which the oil is attracted to the sorbent surface and then
adheres to it. Sorbents are generally marketed as sheets, rolls, pillows, and
booms, or in particulate form. The sorbent material can consist of natural
products such as peat or straw, mineral compounds such as ash, vermiculite,
or perlite, and most commonly, synthetic products such as polythylene,
polypropylene, or polyurethane foam. Sorbents are not used as the primary
method of cleanup in a large spill; rather they are usually used in the final
cleanup stages to remove small amounts of remaining oil, especially along the
shoreline. In addition, they are used to remove oil from areas inaccessible to
skimmers and other recovery equipment. Perhaps the greatest use of
sorbents is the cleanup of small operational spills in facilities, such as
refineries and plants.
The capacity of an adsorbent material depends on the amount of surface area
to which the oil can adhere. The adsorptive capacity of sorbent increases as
the surface area increases. In contrast, absorbent materials depend on
capillary action for their sorptive ability. Therefore, as the porosity of the
material increases, so does its ability to absorb oil into its capillaries. The
absorptive capacity of a material also depends on the specific gravity and
viscosity of the spilled oil. Absorbents will usually take up more light oil than
heavy oil because the light oil will be pulled farther up into the capillary
system.
Some of the sorbents are treated with oleophilic or hydrophobic agents to
increase their recovery capacity. Oleophilic agents attract oil, whereas
hydrophobic agents repel water. Both types of agents make it more likely that
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited,Hazira
Clean-up StrategyRevision No: 1
Page No: 64
the sorbent will pick up oil, rather than water. Treatment with oleophilic
agents would not only tend to increase the amount of oil sorbed but also
increase the amount of oil retained when the material is removed from the
water. Without treatment by hydrophobic agents, many sorbents, especially
natural sorbents such as peat moss, would sink after they had soaked up the
oil and then become water-saturated.
7.4 Dispersants
Chemical dispersants are used to combat oil pollution by breaking up oil slicks
into very small droplets. These become suspended in the water and are
rapidly diluted by the turbulent motion of the sea. Dispersion of oil into the
water prevents the formation of persistent water–in-oil emulsions and residues
are difficult to clean-up. In dispersed form, the oil is available for degradation
by microorganisms which occur naturally in the sea.
Dispersants consist of two components : a blend of surfactants which consists
of emulsifiers and wetting agents and a solvent system which acts as a carrier
for the surfactants.
Dispersants are designed to emulsify the oil into the water column in the form
of oil droplets, small enough for them to remain below the surface and not
reform as a slick. Natural water movement then ensures that the oil is diluted
in the sea, to levels which cause no environmental problem.
7.4.1 Advantages
Dispersants can be used under a wide range of weather and sea
conditions.
The use of dispersants is often the quickest response for combating
large oil spillages.
Oil Spill Risk Assessment and Contingency Plan
Adani Hazira Port Private Limited,Hazira
Clean-up StrategyRevision No: 1
Page No: 65
Sea-dispersion of floating oil reduces or removes risk of shoreline
contamination and potential fire hazard.
Dispersion of floating oil reduces the possible oil contamination of birds
and sea-mammals.
Dispersion potentially improves biodegradation by increasing oil droplet
surface area to a form more accessible for bacterial attack.
The timely use of dispersants may inhibit formation of “chocolate
mousse”
In general costs of treatment at sea are lower than costs of dealing with
oil on the shoreline.
7.4.2 Disadvantages
Dispersed oil may adversely affect marine ecology especially
sedentary species, fish forms, salt marshes and areas of low water
exchange.
Oil is not removed but dispersed into the water column.
Dispersed oil goes to areas where it would normally not go.
Oil viscosity is a limiting factor to the efficiency of dispersants. The oils
with a viscosity above 2000 and 3000 mpa are not amicable to
dispersants.
7.4.3 Areas where dispersants are not recommended to be used:
Near the water in takes to power stations, de-salination plants and processing
plants.
Salt marshes
Coral reefs
Shellfish beds
Fish hatchery
In any stagnant waters without good dilution factor.

7.11 Resources Required for Combating Oil Spill
Based on the oil spill modeling study, it has been observed that an oil spill of
Fuel Oil of 100 t will spread over an area having radius of around 170 m within
2 hours. Accordingly, the minimum resources required are estimated as
follows:
Resources required Equipment Quantity Pressure inflatable boom 200m Boom storage reel 1 Accessories Inflation blowers Towing bridles Boom repair kit
1
Hydraulic power unit 1 Temporary storage tanks (capacity) 5000 lit 1 Nos
Resources will be finalized in consultation with officials of Indian Coast Guard & AHPPL.
Resources may be upgraded as and when the expansion of the operational activity takes place.

9 TEMPORARY STORAGE FACILITIES AND DISPOSAL OF OIL AND DEBRIS
Most oil spill clean-up operations, particularly those on shore, result in the
collection of substantial quantities of oil and oily debris, which must eventually
be dealt with. Manual collection has wide application and can be used on any
type coastline but is particularly for sensitive and inaccessible areas. It is
more selective than techniques involving heavy machinery although
productivity is low.
The consideration and selection of appropriate treatment methods, either to
recycle the oil or render the collected material suitable for disposal, are
important aspects of any contingency plan. Ideally as much of the collected oil
as possible should be processed through a refinery or oil recycling plant.
Unfortunately, this is rarely possible due to weathering of the oil and
contamination with debris and so some form of disposal is usually required.
This includes direct dumping; stabilization for use in land reclamation or road
foundations; and destruction through biological processes or burning. The
disposal option chosen will depend upon the amount and type of oil and
debris, the location of the spill, environmental and legal considerations, and
likely costs involved. In the case of large spills, it may be necessary to store
collected material for some time before it can all be dealt with.
9.1 Storage Facilities
Flexible open topped tank – Suitable for initial storage to allow operation to
start. Not movable when full. Primary use with low capacity skimmers up to 10
t/hr.

mousse once inside tank. Primary use with low capacity skimmers up to 10
t/hr.
Flexible pillow tanks – with support on pallets – Suitable for initial storage
to start operation. Can be moved provided suitable lifting equipment available.
May be difficult to remove heavy mousse from tank. Suitable for low capacity
skimmers up to 10 t/hr.
Dracones – buoyant rubber storage tanks – Suitable for initial storage for
operations at sea. May be problems in removing mousse from them. Suitable
for low to medium capacity skimming operations up to 50 t/hr. depending on
size of dracones
Mobile road tanks – Well suited for operations close to the shore, especially
when quays are available when they allow easy transportation of recovered oil
to disposal points. They are also used to recover oil from primary storage
vessels, dracones, barges, pillow tanks, etc.
Barges – Normally suitable for both small and large capacity skimmers not
only because of their capacity, but also because they can provide a stable
working platform off which skimmers can be operated.
Oil tankers – Suitable for very large spills – normally best used to collect oil
already recovered in barges etc. If recovery systems with very large capacity
(500 t/hr) are used, small coastal tankers will need to be used as primary
storages.
Ships tanks – It is rare that masters will permit the use of their spare tankage
for the reception of recovered oil. However, in a number of areas where boats
have been previously identified as oil recovery vessels, some tankage is set
aside for handling recovered oil.

Movable open top tanks – Suitable at first storage in separating heavily oiled
solids from bulk of oil by use of coarse sieves of wire mesh.
Plastic bags (heavy duty) – Ideally suited when clearing beaches by hand.
They can be manhandled when full and moved well away from the high water
line for eventual collection. However, they lead to problems at the disposal
end.
Open topped barrels – Providing some lifting facilities are available they can
be suitable for collecting debris form beaches, transporting full plastic bags to
central storage / disposal areas.
Skips – Very robust containers ideally suited for the transportation of oil
contaminated solid debris to disposal sites. Can be transported on rig supply
boats / landing craft to get to isolated sites. If possible line with plastic sheet.
Lorries – Provided there is good access to beaches etc. lorries can be used
to transport solid debris with low oil contamination.
Temporary storage pits – Need to be lined with plastic sheets to prevent
contamination of ground waters and, where sharp rocks / protrusions may
cause damage to sheet, pre-lined with sand etc. to give smooth surface.
Should be close to major clean-up sites to act as temporary reception for
contaminated solid debris.

Hydrodyn-OILSOFT has been validated successfully based on the available tide and current data.
Based on the oil spill modelling studies, the following conclusions are drawn:
The spill quantity has been selected as per Tier–I & Tier-II specification. Fuel oils have been considered to have more impact on the environment rather than other refined products (POL)
The spills within the port takes longer duration to escape during which it is easier to combat. The spills near the turning circle also can be contained using floating booms deployed immediately in case of an eventuality.
The spills in the channel moves north and south depending on the tidal phase irrespective of the seasons and form thin film which can not be contained using mechanical means. In such cases dispersants are the only option. However, no evidence has been found for these spills landing the coastline to impact marine ecology adversely.
The study has been carried out for operational leakage at berth during loading/unloading operations as well as for accidental spills, which indicated the usefulness of floating booms at the time of operations.
The details of spill volume and time taken to reach the coast and losses during its movement have been furnished in the report for preparedness.
The percentage of spill volume reaching the coast, extent of oiling on the coast in metres, likely vulnerable areas, spill analysis, have been furnished in the report to estimate the fate of the spill.
Oil spill contingency plan has been prepared as per IMO guidelines and presented in Strategy Plan. Strategy plans have been discussed in detail and formulated based on the risk analysis. Resources required to combat oil spills have been identified and furnished along with specifications.
RecommendationsBased on the oil spill modelling study, it has been observed that a spill of 100
tones will spread over an area having radius of 170 m within 2 hrs.
Accordingly, the resource requirement with specifications and details are
mentioned in the report. Specifications on equipments are based on the

existing sea conditions and other environmental factors in the study area and
as such strictly to be adhered for better efficiency.
Priority should be given to contain the oil spill by physical means such as
booms and skimmers. Dispersants should be used as last resort. Only those
dispersants recommended by Indian Coast Guard should be put into use.
Training as per IMO guidelines should be given to the concerned operating
staff involve oil spill combating.
Mock drills should be conducted twice in a year.
