- 134 - Annex -9 Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Minor Spills. 1. It is not possible to produce a standard OSCP to respond to all oil spill Scenarios. Each plan must be customized to reflect the locally identified risks posed by the installation and/or operation. A range of factors will affect the response to an oil spill. These include the quantity of oil spilled, the type of oil, the location of the spill, the depth of water, distance to the shoreline, the prevailing weather and tides, the time of day or year, the environmental sensitivity of the area, the organisational structure of the operator, availability of equipment and level of training of personnel. 2. This matrix should be used to determine response times and levels for exploration and production operations located outside 'Essential Element' blocks and located outside any block wholly or partly within 25 miles of the coastline. While the matrix inherently combines elements of prescription and risk assessment, may occasionally require or accept variations on a case by case basis.

Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Minor Spills.<br />
1. It is not possible to produce a standard OSCP to respond to all <strong>oil</strong> <strong>spill</strong><br />
Scenarios. Each <strong>plan</strong> must be customized to reflect the locally identified risks<br />
posed by the installation and/or operation. A range of factors will affect the<br />
response to an <strong>oil</strong> <strong>spill</strong>. These include the quantity of <strong>oil</strong> <strong>spill</strong>ed, the type of <strong>oil</strong>,<br />
the location of the <strong>spill</strong>, the depth of water, distance to the shoreline, the<br />
prevailing weather and tides, the time of day or year, the environmental<br />
sensitivity of the area, the organisational structure of the operator, availability of<br />
equipment and level of training of personnel.<br />
2. This matrix should be used to determine response times and levels for<br />
exploration and production operations located outside 'Essential Element' blocks<br />
and located outside any block wholly or partly within 25 miles of the coastline.<br />

assessment, may occasionally require or accept variations on a case by case<br />
basis. The table takes into account the increased response time necessary to<br />
