  13. Detailed Bathymetry of the Mediterrenean Does IFREMER have a similar to the Spain & France coasts map of the Mediterranean & North Sea? DIFIS PROJECT

  14. Season Source : CEDRE “ANALYSIS OF THE MAIN MARITIME ACCIDENTS HAVING LED TO PAST POLLUTION OF THE EUROPEAN WATERS WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASIS ON THE ASPECT OF POLLUTING WRECKS” prepared for IFREMER in the framework of the DIFIS project Winter and Autumn cover the 57% of maritime accidents The DIFIS Deployment will most likely be conducted in harsh weather conditions DIFIS PROJECT

  15. Temperature – Buoy Data I Coriolis Data Server – 10m depth September October November February January December DIFIS PROJECT

  16. Temperature – Depth Variation Coriolis Data Server (access through IFREMER website) 10 m 100 m 300 m Sea Surface Data Available through IFREMER Live Access Server has also been collected 1000 m DIFIS PROJECT

  17. Salinity • Data is available online through the CORIOLIS data server (for different depths) • To be Implemented in Deliverable 2.1 Salinity is also Varied by depth Importance of Salinity: % of Salt defines the density of Sea water Defines the velocity of the oil DIFIS PROJECT

  18. Wave Height -40 year averages October November September February December January DIFIS PROJECT

  19. Wave Height -Numerical Data Wave height is in meters DIFIS PROJECT

  20. Wave Period – Radar Altimetry Data I October November September February December January DIFIS PROJECT

  21. Wave Period-Numerical Data Wave period is in seconds DIFIS PROJECT

  22. Quantity Source: CEDRE Report DIFIS PROJECT

  23. Spills below 700 tones DIFIS PROJECT

  24. Spills over 700 tones • Source: ITOPF statistics DIFIS PROJECT

  25. Source: ITOPF Assumption: All small accidents are of 350 tn (the average of the range) DIFIS PROJECT

  26. Source: ITOPF An accident of 100,000 tones is forseeable DIFIS PROJECT

  27. Cargo-Quality 83% of the oil spilt is CRUDE OIL 37% of the oil spills involve CRUDE OIL Source: CEDRE report DIFIS PROJECT

  28. Cargo-Quality Source:CEDRE report Large Accidents Involve Crude Oil & Heavy refined Oil Very Large Accidents > 100000 tn involve only crude oil Oil spills between 10000 and 100000 tn Oil spills over 100000 tn DIFIS PROJECT

  29. Type of Oil The main causes of pollution is spills over 10000 tonnes Number of Accidents Multiplied by Mean oil amount range DIFIS PROJECT

  30. Oil Properties (In summary) • Density – Characterises the buoyancy of the cargo (Flow Models) • Dynamic Viscosity – (can characterise the oil flow through the riser tube and from the buffer bell to the tanker) • Surface Tension (Charecterises the resistance to flow between the riser and oil) • Adhesion (How much will the oil become attached to the riser and the buffer bell) • Variables • Temperature • Oil weathering (~evaporation) Dynamic Viscosity Density Surface Tension Adhesion Rising Temperature Increased Oil Weathering DIFIS PROJECT

  31. Maximum oil Properties DIFIS PROJECT

  32. Vessel Sizing >50000 ~80000 125000-180000 300000 >300000 VLCCs and ULCCs represent great danger in terms of oil amount • Large tankers usually carry crude oil • CEDRE reports that heavy refined oil traffic with large tankers is increasing DIFIS PROJECT

  33. Single Hull- Double Hull • ITOPF projections identify that only 25% of tankers will be single hull in 2007 DIFIS PROJECT

  34. Leakage Rate and Wreck Condition • Leakage rate highly depends on the specific accident. • The PRESTIGE accident involved a leakage rate of 125 tn/day • Pre-intervention monitoring should provide data for leakage rate • According to conditions, leaks will be sealed/ created in order to keep leakage to the DIFIS operational specifications • If the tanker is Double Hull, great possibility of intact fuel tanks • ULCCs and large tankers pose the risk of being cut in half DIFIS PROJECT

  35. Location Weather Conditions Type and amount of Oil Pattern / rate of Spillage Clean Up Response Response on / off shore Termination of clean-up Operation Oil Pollution compensation Consequences Economical Ecological • Effects of Oil on Flora • Consequences on Coral Reefs and Beaches • Effects on Fauna • Toxic Contamination • Destruction of food chain DIFIS PROJECT

  36. Main Events DIFIS PROJECT

  37. Points of Discussion Maximum Operating Conditions • Maximum Working Depth: 4000 m • Seabed : All compositions (anchoring system dependant) • Weather Conditions (Design conditions AREA 1) • Amount of oil to be reclaimed :~300000tn • Wreck status : irrelevant .Only provision : wreck immobile • Design cargo : heavy crude oil –heavy refined oil • Deployment time (depends on the readiness of the system) • Deployment currents : 2-3 kt (max ROV working condition) • Vessel Type : ULCC (possibility of double hull) Should M/V bunker tanks be considered as intervention targets? DIFIS PROJECT

  42. Wreck survey, salvage and removal Pre or Post operational survey Survey and ROV Support Subsea installation (cable, anchoring) Shuttle tanker offtake Mobile offshore Drilling Offshore loading tankers Floating Production Storage and Offtake Geopositioning Vessel Operations: DIFIS PROJECT

  43. Anchoring In General ANCHORING CONFIGURATIONS Catenary Systems Taut Leg Systems DIFIS PROJECT

  44. Geotechnical Aspects USS= Undrained Shear Strength UCS= Unconfined Compression Strength Property table : IFREMER DIFIS PROJECT

  45. Suction Anchors DIFIS PROJECT

  46. Drag Embedded anchor Specialized design should be done by the manufacturer / operator No significant uplift capacity (catenary systems) DIFIS PROJECT

  47. Vertical Load Anchor Installation Retrieval DIFIS PROJECT

  48. Other anchor types Not widely used The major uncertainties are in the estimation of the trajectory, ultimate anchor depth, and final anchor orientation. Combination of suction anchors and Plate Anchors Seems to be very promising as a solution DIFIS PROJECT

  49. Anchoring Solutions Comparison Seabed determines the anchoring configuration DIFIS PROJECT

  50. Remotely Operated Vehicles-Surveying • Surveying Operations Required Anticipated • Position, depth and integrity of the wreck • Seabed stability, geology and geography-Identification of anchoring Sites • Oil amount and type remaining, leakage rate and position of the leaks • General inspection and preparation for the deployment • Possible inspection of the DIFIS main dome integrity after deployment and in periodic checks • Sensors • Cameras for optical surveillance • Sediment echo sounders, series of Piston coring and Mini cone-penetration testing • Measurement capabilities including distance, orientation, elevation, leak flow, temperature • Sensors to calculate the amount of oil remaining in the wreck (possibly sonar?) • Capability of taking oil samples from the wreck’s tanks in order to define the composition of the cargo remaining. This might require special custom designs compatible with ROV standard manipulators. DIFIS PROJECT
