Tom Sturgeon, an MSc Oceanography student from NOCS, explores the use of oil spill modelling for assessing biological impact of oil spills as part of his MSc Oceanography project at OSRL.

Oil Spill Response Ltd has a long history of responding quickly and efficiently to oil spill incidents around the globe.

One of the most common questions we hear from our members is “But I’m operating in country X, can OSRL respond here?”

Tristan Barston, our Americas Region Business Development Manager tells you more.

As part of Tom’s continued development in his final year of his advanced apprenticeship, he was ready to conduct his first equipment hire maintenance project. Read about his trip to Shetland, off the northeast coast of Scotland.

Globally there are many more inland oil spills than marine incidents. The need for a speedy and effective response to a terrestrial spill is more likely than it is for the majority of marine spills. 

In late 2016 we delivered a new three-day Inland Oil Spill Response course in the Middle-East to a group of Iraqi Government and Industry delegates.

Our HR director Neil Gates shares about his career plans and how roadblocks led to new opportunities.

Less than two weeks to go now, to the Spill Response Expo!  I have just finished working on my slides for my presentation on Tiered Preparedness & Response.
