JIP Oil in Ice. Overall objective n Develop tools and technologies for oil spill response for ice -infested waters n The program will n Improve our ability to protect the Arctic environment against oil spills. n Improve the basis for decision-making n Advance state-of-the-art in Arctic oil spill response by n n Addressing key problems/scenarios Demonstrating response options for different ice conditions and oil types Defining limiting conditions for various response strategies Developing improved response capabilities and strategies Materials and Chemistry 5

Program overview 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Fate and behaviour of oil under Arctic conditions In-situ burning in Arctic and ice-infested waters Mechanical recovery in Arctic and iceinfested waters Use of chemical dispersants in iceinfested waters Monitoring and remote sensing Field experiments at Svalbard and in offshore ice-infested waters Preparation of a generic oil spill contingency plan /guideline Coordination, management, communication and publishing n 8 projects n 21 tasks n 6 oil companies n 6 cooperating organisations n R&D organisations n Suppliers of equipment n Authorities Materials and Chemistry 6

Coordination, managment and communication. BASICINPUT Fate and behaviour Compiling recent weathering data Modification/upgrading of OWM Meso-scale weathering (laboratory Long term experiments (Svalbard) Large-scale field verification ”COMBAT METHODS” In-situ burning: Burnability as a function of weathering Field test of herding agents Testing of fire-resistant booms Oil weathering model upgrading on burning DETECTION, MAPPING. Monitoring and remote sensing: Development/testing of remote sensing system Mechanical recovery: Testing of existing recovery systems Development of new concepts and units Use of dispersants: Circumpolar description of ice regimes Effectiveness by use of dispersants Improved application technology Testing SGS Light. Touch Verification of airborne LFS LAB, MESOSCALE AND FIELD EXPERIMENTS AND TESTS Experiments at Svalbard, 2007 and 2008 Offshore field experiments, 2007 and 2009 Generic oil spill contingency plan/GUIDELINE Develop knowledge, tools and technologies for oil spill response for ice-infested waters Materials and Chemistry 7
