The Gulf War Oil Spill of 1991 was one of the largest oil spills in history. During the Gulf War, Iraqi forces intentionally dumped an estimated 11 million barrels of crude oil into the Persian Gulf in a failed attempt to prevent U.S. forces from invading Kuwait. The spill contaminated over 700 kilometers of Saudi Arabian coastline and oil continued leaking into the Gulf for over a year. Cleanup costs exceeded $500 million but large amounts of oil remained buried in coastal lands and sediments, continuing to cause environmental damage for decades.
The document summarizes the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It notes that the spill released 4.9 million barrels of oil over 87 days, covering an area of 130 by 70 miles and resulting in 11 deaths and over 6,000 animal deaths. It discusses BP's cleanup efforts including over $600 million spent on natural resource damage assessments, wildlife monitoring, promoting Gulf tourism and seafood industries, and community support. It also mentions lawsuits filed against BP and a $1.6 billion initial cost for BP.

British petroleum & gulf oil spill of 2010Aditi Podder
BP is the third largest energy company in the world. In 2010, an explosion on the BP-operated Deepwater Horizon rig caused the largest marine oil spill in history. Over 3 months, nearly 5 million barrels of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico, causing extensive environmental and economic damage. BP spent billions on cleanup and restoration efforts. New technologies were employed to contain, disperse, and remove the spilled oil, including booms, dispersants, and microbes. However, a large percentage of oil remains in the Gulf environment over a decade later. The spill significantly impacted tourism and fishing industries and wildlife in the region. BP continues restoration work and moving towards more sustainable biofuel production.
The Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico 1,500 meters below the surface and 66 km off the coast of Louisiana, killing 11 workers. Over the next 36 hours, the rig burned and eventually sank, leaving a damaged wellhead that was leaking oil into the Gulf. For months, oil gushed from the wellhead at an estimated rate of up to 40,000 barrels per day, spreading across 1,500 square km of the Gulf and reaching the coasts of Louisiana, Florida, and elsewhere in the Gulf region due to ocean currents. The well was finally capped on July 15, over 80 days after the initial explosion.
On 20 April 2010, the semi-submersible exploratory offshore drilling rig Deepwater Horizon exploded after a blowout; it sank two days later, killing 11 people. This blowout in the Macondo Prospect field in the Gulf of Mexico resulted in a partially capped oil well one mile below the surface of the water. Experts estimate the gusher to be flowing at 35,000 to 60,000 barrels per day (5,600 to 9,500 m3/d) of oil.

The document summarizes the Deepwater Horizon oil spill which occurred in 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico. It provides background on the Deepwater Horizon offshore drilling rig, describes how an explosion killed 11 workers and ignited a fire on the rig, and details the consequences of the sinking rig including the massive oil spill it caused and environmental damage. It also discusses attempts to stop the leak, the casualties and rescue efforts, and investigations into the cause of the initial explosion.
An oil spill is the release of liquid petroleum into the environment, especially marine areas, due to human activity. It pollutes the environment and is difficult to clean up, sometimes taking weeks, months or years. Oil spills negatively impact local industries, human health, marine ecosystems, vegetation, beaches, and fragile marine environments. They affect tourism and fishing industries and can cause respiratory issues and health problems for humans. The impacts depend on factors like the area affected, weather and proximity to breeding areas. Oil can smother and poison animals and plants, damaging habitats and food chains. Cleanup methods include booming, burning, spreading chemicals, skimming, using sorbents, and manual labor. Some major oil spills were the
The document summarizes two major oil spills: the Exxon Valdez spill of 1989 and the 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The Exxon Valdez spill released over 10 million gallons of crude oil into Prince William Sound, Alaska, killing hundreds of thousands of seabirds, sea otters, and other wildlife. Decades later the area has only partially recovered. The Deepwater Horizon spill resulted from an oil rig explosion off the Gulf Coast that killed 11 workers. It released an even larger amount of oil and also threatened hundreds of species, coastal wetlands, and fisheries in the Gulf region.
The BP oil spill occurred in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20, 2010 when the Deepwater Horizon oil rig experienced a blowout and explosion. The blowout preventers failed to activate to control the oil and gas surge from the well. Over 1 million pounds of black carbon pollution was released into the atmosphere from controlled burns of the spilled oil. The spill had devastating impacts on the Gulf's biosphere that may last for decades by changing the ability of the hydrosphere to support some forms of life. BP's response was criticized for not acting quickly enough to contain the spill and limit environmental damage, though they did provide some compensation to affected residents and businesses.

The document summarizes the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill caused by BP. It describes how the oil rig explosion led to the largest marine oil spill in history, spilling millions of barrels of oil over 87 days. It examines how BP violated safety regulations and ignored warning signs, causing immense environmental and economic impacts. Stakeholders like the environment, residents, and BP itself suffered major consequences. The conclusion states that prioritizing safety should be a top concern for all companies as part of their social responsibility.
The document summarizes the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and methods for cleaning it up. It discusses how over 200 million gallons of oil leaked from a blown out well 1 mile below the surface. Common cleanup methods include dispersants, booms, and skimming. The document proposes using materials like hair, wool, and polymers to absorb oil and reports on an experiment testing wool, recycled cellulose, oil-absorbing polymer, and nonwoven wool blanket on simulated oil.
The Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989 released 11 million gallons of oil into Alaska's Prince William Sound. It was caused by improper navigation and possible alcohol impairment of the vessel's captain. Cleanup efforts included controlled burns, booms, skimmers, and dispersants. The spill caused extensive ecological damage, killing an estimated 250,000 seabirds, 2,800 sea otters, and other wildlife. It also had major economic impacts through lost tourism and fishing. Exxon was found liable for $5 billion in punitive damages in litigation over the spill. The spill highlighted the need for improved oil spill prevention, response, and regulations.
The BP Deepwater Horizon rig exploded and sank in the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 workers and unleashing the largest marine oil spill in history at 4.9 million barrels of oil. Pressurized oil continued flowing from the collapsed well for months, causing unprecedented wildlife destruction in the Gulf. The spill had massive lasting impacts through habitat and economic destruction, and raised questions around blame and the adequacy of cleanup efforts.

Produced water is water produced from oil and gas extraction operations. It originates from hydrocarbon-bearing formations and can also migrate from adjacent formations. Global produced water volumes are estimated at over 100 billion barrels per year. Produced water is chemically complex, saline, heterogeneous, and can contain toxic substances and process chemicals. Common management practices for produced water include reuse in enhanced oil recovery, surface disposal, underground injection, and beneficial use. More research is needed to improve treatment technologies and develop more sustainable management methods for the large volumes of produced water.
Piper Alpha was an oil production platform in the North Sea that caught fire in 1988, resulting in the deaths of 167 workers. The platform began oil production in 1976 and was later converted to gas production. On July 6, 1988, a gas leak caused an explosion and massive fire that destroyed the platform within hours. The fire spread due to the platform's design which lacked firewalls between modules and the continued pumping of gas and oil from connected platforms. It was one of the worst offshore oil disasters in history.

This document outlines a proposed digital communications strategy for Shell. It identifies challenges such as critics and past campaigns. The proposed solution is a campaign called "Inside Shell" that would use a landing page, prevention toolkits, info updates and infographics to showcase how Shell is protecting the environment, meeting energy needs, creating technology, and more. It would feature profiles of Shell experts and be promoted through a press conference, social media ads, and blogger outreach with the goal of changing public perception. The recommendation is to engage boldly and come out of Shell's shell to tell its story to the world.
Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill: A Study of Behavioural Decision MakingJerome Dauvergne
This report analyses the genesis of the Deepwater Horizon disaster from a behavioural decision making perspective. In order to write this original paper I borrowed from the investigative work of the environmental journalist Abrahm Lustgarten, and from concepts developed by behavioural finance and emotional finance academics such as the Canadian Hersh Shefrin, the American John Nofsinger, and the Britons Richard Taffler and David Tuckett.
I hope you'll enjoy the read!
Oil spills can occur from various sources including accidental spills, leaks, storm water runoff, and waste disposal. While offshore drilling contributes a small amount (2.1%) of oil in the ocean annually, transportation accidents contribute more (5.2%). When an oil spill occurs, the oil spreads on the surface and is moved by currents and wind, impacting open ocean, coastal, and shoreline areas. Oil that reaches shorelines can contaminate beaches, rocks, vegetation, and wildlife habitats both on land and at sea, causing damage to fisheries, wildlife, recreation, and long-term effects on shoreline areas. Truly preventing oil spills requires responsibility and care from individuals, governments, and industries
Shell is one of the private players allowed to market transportation fuels in India since 2002. It focuses on marketing petroleum products and does not have refining capabilities. While NOCs face issues like fuel adulteration and outdated infrastructure, Shell provides quality fuel and world-class infrastructure at its retail sites. It promotes its fuel brands and aims to generate customer loyalty through membership programs and social media engagement. Shell also focuses on sustainability and CSR initiatives to create positive brand equity.

The document outlines a digital marketing strategy for Shell that focuses on increasing customer loyalty and communication through social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. It identifies challenges like disloyal customers and competitive industries, and sets goals to improve B2C communication, meet global demand, and increase visibility online. The strategy proposes utilizing Google AdWords, social media, blogging, a mobile app and more to engage target audiences and evaluate campaign success.
The document provides information about oil spills, including what they are, their causes, effects, and cleanup methods. It defines an oil spill as the release of liquid petroleum into the environment, usually from human activity. Major oil spills discussed include the M/T Haven which spilled 42 million gallons in Italy in 1991, and the Nowruz Oil Field spill of 80 million gallons in the Persian Gulf in 1983 during the Iran-Iraq War. The effects of oil spills are described for local industries, human health, and marine ecosystems. Methods of cleaning up oil spills discussed include booms, burning, dispersants, and skimmers.
Oil or Crude oil is the remains of antiquated plants and animals, compressed profound within the soil into fluid strings of hydrogen and carbon.
Ancient Greeks gave it the title petroleum, from the Greek "petra" meaning rock, and "oleum" meaning oil. crude oil and petroleum fossil fuels because they are mixtures of hydrocarbons that formed from the remains of animals and plants (diatoms) that lived millions of years ago in a marine environment before the existence of dinosaurs
Over millions of years, the remains of these animals and plants were covered by layers of sand, silt, and rock. Heat and pressure from these layers turned the remains into.
Oil is an ancient fossil fuel that we use to heat our homes, generate electricity, and power large sectors of our economy. But
when oil accidentally spills into the ocean, it can cause big problems. Oil spills can harm sea creatures, ruin a day at the beach, and make seafood unsafe to eat. It takes sound science to clean up the oil, measure the impacts of pollution, and help the ocean recover.
Inhalation of vapor, touching oil slicks and consuming contaminated sea food
Exposure may cause neurological, acute toxic effects, ocular (eye) and also problems of respiratory system.
People living in effected areas showed nausea, throat infections, nose and eye irritations etc along with migraines and headaches.
Ingestion of oil produces in sea food is
dangerous as oil products having
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAH). These are human carcinogens.
The document summarizes information about sea turtles and the Sea Turtle Preservation Society (STPS). STPS is a non-profit organization that works to educate the public and conduct permitted wildlife activities to help sea turtles survive, such as turtle walks, nest surveys, and operating a sea turtle medical facility. The document provides details on the various sea turtle species found in Florida, their life cycles, nesting behaviors, and both natural and human-caused threats they face. It emphasizes the importance of the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge for sea turtle nesting and STPS's role in conservation and outreach efforts.

The document discusses the impacts of oil spills from accidents and leaks. It notes that the largest 15 oil spills since 1967 have released over 14 million barrels of oil, damaging sea life and coastal areas. After the Exxon Valdez spill, 109 bald eagles were found dead from eating oiled carcasses. If oil spills continue, it could seriously harm ocean animals and water quality. Booms are commonly used to contain spills and prevent further spreading. The Amoco Cadiz spill released over 50 million gallons of oil, enough to fill over 500 homes. The Exxon Valdez spill killed nearly half the otters in the area, with rescuers only able to save 200. The document encourages
This document discusses protecting aquatic biodiversity and managing fisheries sustainably. It begins by providing background on protecting whales through international agreements and moratoriums. Examples are then given of threats like overfishing, pollution, invasive species, and habitat loss negatively impacting aquatic species. The document advocates for establishing marine protected areas and reserves, reducing subsidies, and improving monitoring to better manage fisheries. Sustainable approaches like aquaculture and consumer awareness are also discussed.
Fossil fuels are fuels formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals that have been buried underground. There are three main types of fossil fuels: coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal forms over millions of years as peat is buried and undergoes heat and pressure. Oil and natural gas also form from the remains of ancient organisms buried underground and subjected to heat and pressure over extremely long periods of time. Fossil fuels are important because they are widely used as an energy source, such as for producing electricity from coal or powering vehicles with gasoline.
Sea turtles face many threats including habitat destruction, entanglement in fishing gear, pollution, and the 2010 Gulf oil spill. The spill particularly harmed Kemp's ridley turtles, weakening eggs and poisoning hatchlings and adults. Conservation groups like NASA and WWF helped by moving turtle nests from oiled beaches and raising awareness. The full impact may not be known for years as turtles take decades to mature. Donations to WWF support protecting critical habitats and reducing threats like bycatch.
This document provides information about the green sea turtle, including its classification, habitat, diet, distribution range, reproduction, threats, and conservation status. Some key points:
- Green sea turtles inhabit coastal waters and migrate between nesting beaches, shallow bays with seagrass beds, and other coastal habitats.
- They face major threats like entanglement in fishing gear, poaching, coastal development, and pollution.
- In Pakistan, major nesting sites for green sea turtles include Hawke's Bay and Sandspit beaches. Conservation efforts aim to protect eggs and hatchlings.
Green sea turtles are reptiles found in Fiji that can be distinguished by their single pair of prefrontal scales and non-beaklike jaws. As hatchlings, they are omnivorous but become herbivorous adults feeding mainly on seagrass and algae. Females come ashore to lay clutches of up to 150 eggs which hatch after 50-70 days. Major threats include habitat destruction, pollution, hunting, and bycatch which are exacerbated by climate change and disease. Green sea turtles play an important role in marine ecosystems by maintaining coral reef and beach health.
Major threats to aquatic biodiversity include habitat loss, invasive species, pollution, climate change, and overexploitation, which are exacerbated by human population growth. The greatest marine biodiversity is found at coral reefs, estuaries, and on the deep ocean floor. While protections for whales have led to recovery of some populations, others are still threatened by illegal hunting. Invasive species like the Asian swamp eel and lionfish degrade ecosystems, while activities such as agriculture, development, and waste dumping pollute waterways and oceans. Climate change poses a growing threat through sea level rise, warming, and acidification. Overfishing has driven many fish species toward extinction.
There are three main groups of oils: animal, vegetable, and mineral. Whales produce great quantities of animal oil through their thick blubber, which is stripped and boiled down after they are killed to produce large amounts of oil. Cod and halibut livers also yield nourishing oils, and cod liver oil and halibut liver oil are commonly given to sick children and invalids as vitamins.
Fish are a renewable resource if populations are managed sustainably, but overfishing has become a problem recently due to advances in fishing technology allowing much higher catches. Issues arise from large nets catching unintended species and damaging ocean habitats, while methods like dynamite fishing destroy reefs. Conservation efforts are needed like limiting catches, protecting spawning populations, and creating marine reserves to allow fish stocks to recover.
There are three major fossil fuels: coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal forms from peat deposits over millions of years, progressing through lignite, bituminous coal, and finally anthracite. Coal is ground up and pumped through pipelines to power plants. Oil forms from the remains of tiny sea creatures and is refined for use in vehicles and other machinery. Natural gas forms near oil deposits and is used for heating and electricity generation.

The document discusses fossil fuels, including their formation, types, and uses. The three main types of fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal forms from peat deposits over millions of years. Oil forms from the remains of ancient plants and animals. Natural gas forms near oil deposits and is composed primarily of methane. Fossil fuels are used widely as sources of energy, with coal and oil powering power stations and fueling vehicles, and natural gas used commercially and residentially. The document also describes two major oil spill incidents: the Exxon Valdez spill in Alaska in 1989 and the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
