Book Responding to Oil Spills in the U S  Arctic Marine Environment

Download or read book Responding to Oil Spills in the U S Arctic Marine Environment written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Arctic waters north of the Bering Strait and west of the Canadian border encompass a vast area that is usually ice covered for much of the year, but is increasingly experiencing longer periods and larger areas of open water due to climate change. Sparsely inhabited with a wide variety of ecosystems found nowhere else, this region is vulnerable to damage from human activities. As oil and gas, shipping, and tourism activities increase, the possibilities of an oil spill also increase. How can we best prepare to respond to such an event in this challenging environment? Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment reviews the current state of the science regarding oil spill response and environmental assessment in the Arctic region north of the Bering Strait, with emphasis on the potential impacts in U.S. waters. This report describes the unique ecosystems and environment of the Arctic and makes recommendations to provide an effective response effort in these challenging conditions. According to Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment, a full range of proven oil spill response technologies is needed in order to minimize the impacts on people and sensitive ecosystems. This report identifies key oil spill research priorities, critical data and monitoring needs, mitigation strategies, and important operational and logistical issues. The Arctic acts as an integrating, regulating, and mediating component of the physical, atmospheric and cryospheric systems that govern life on Earth. Not only does the Arctic serve as regulator of many of the Earth's large-scale systems and processes, but it is also an area where choices made have substantial impact on life and choices everywhere on planet Earth. This report's recommendations will assist environmentalists, industry, state and local policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of this special region to preserve and protect it from damaging oil spills.

  • Pages : 950 pages

Download or read book Arctic Systems written by P. Amaria and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the purpose of publication of these Proceedings, the original conference programme has been rearranged to provide a more logical sequence of presentation. The beginning sections give the inaugural speech and the six keynote addresses which were delivered at the opening plenary session. Following these are the working papers, published more or less in the same sequence in which they were presented in the original programme. The order of presentation does not necessarily emphasise the importance of any one aspect of the Arctic Systems over others. The final reports of the six working groups and their conclusions and recommendations are edited in such a manner as to present them in a standardised format for easy comprehension. The editors accept responsibility for any distortion inadvertently introduced in the summarising and editing processes. Later sections of the Proceedings give a background to the Conference organization and deliberations, and an independent critique of the meeting. The directors and those who attended the Conference were conscious of the debt of gratitude owed by them to the Conference chairmen, rapporteurs, authors of working papers, and many individuals for their contributions to the success of the meeting. We wish to thank them and it is a pleasure to record their names in these Proceedings. Inaugural Speaker Dr. J. Rennie Whitehead, Canada Banquet Guest Speaker Honourable Mr. T. Alex Hickman, Canada Keynote Addresses Mr. C. Bornemann, Denmark Dr. A.E. Collin, Canada Dr. R.E. Francois, U.S.A.

Book Logistics Planning in the Transportation of Crude Oil

Download or read book Logistics Planning in the Transportation of Crude Oil written by Qingning Shen and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, an inventory routing problem in crude oil transportation in real life is studied, in which crude oil is transported from an unlimited supply center to a set of customer harbors to satisfy their dynamic demands over multiple periods. In the problem, a heterogeneous fleet of tankers consisting of tankers owned by a distributor and tankers rented from a third party logistics provider, a pipeline, multiple types of routes are considered; both inventory level and shortage level at each customer harbor are limited. The objective is to determine in each period the number of tankers of each type dispatched on each route and their loads, the number of tankers of each type rented/returned at the supply center and the quantity of crude oil flowing through the pipe-line to minimize the total logistics cost . The problem is extremely complex, few papers studied it; as the problem is difficult to be solved exactly in a reasonable time, we first formulate the problem as a mixed-integer linear program model, and then develop two optimization methods, a GRASP enhanced with an intensification strategy Path Relinking and a Lagrangian relaxation approach to find near optimal solutions of the problem. Numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the methods for solving the problem. In addition, we propose an O(T3) dynamic programming algorithm for a simplified version of the problem, in which the crude oil is delivered directly from a supply center to a single customer harbor with dynamic demand by unlimited identical tankers.
