National Contigency ( Sea Response )

AT SEA RESPONSE

(Counter pollution operations)

All techniques for cleaning up oil pollution at sea have limitations. The distance of the casualty from shore, the type of oil, weather conditions, currents, and the time taken for resources to reach the scene can significantly affect the effectiveness of different techniques. MCA therefore carefully evaluates the circumstances of each incident before mobilising equipment or other resources for Sea Response deployment.
