Appendix B – <strong>Environmental</strong> Impact Assessment<br />
Lube <strong>and</strong><br />
hydraulic oil<br />
spills<br />
Accidental spillage of oils<br />
may result from<br />
rupture/corrosion of<br />
drums in storage; loss of<br />
containment during<br />
decanting; rupture of<br />
hydraulic hose in use.<br />
Spill may enter drainage<br />
system <strong>and</strong> be<br />
discharged to sea<br />
Diesel spills Accidental spillage<br />
during bunkering<br />
operations <strong>and</strong> rupture<br />
of diesel tanks.<br />
Minor spillage that would impair water quality<br />
<strong>and</strong> marine life in immediate vicinity of discharge.<br />
Likelihood Consequence Risk<br />
2 1 Low<br />
Impacts depend on spill size, prevailing wind, sea<br />
state & temperature & sensitivity of<br />
environmental features affected. Birds are most<br />
sensitive offshore receptor. Also affected are<br />
plankton, fish/fisheries, seabed animals & marine<br />
mammals.<br />
Likelihood Consequence Risk<br />
2 1 Low<br />
Storage tanks <strong>and</strong> hoses<br />
are subject to an inspection<br />
<strong>and</strong> engineering<br />
maintenance strategy.<br />
OPEP is implemented in<br />
the event of a spill as per<br />
Emergency Response<br />
Process.<br />
Trained deck operations<br />
personnel. Diesel storage<br />
tanks <strong>and</strong> transfer hoses<br />
are subject to inspection &<br />
engineering maintenance<br />
strategy. Bunded storage<br />
tanks. OPEP is<br />
implemented in the event<br />
of a spill as per Emergency<br />
Response Process. <strong>Oil</strong> spill<br />
modelling completed as an<br />
integral part of OPEP.<br />
