Hydrodynamic model of an oil spill on the Earth’s surface and the use of expert technologies in its implementation to assess pollution methods
Abstract A volumetric model of accidental oil spills on the land surface was developed, based on numerical methods for solving hydrodynamic equations, and taking into account the processes of oil spreading over the surface, its filtration into the soil and evaporation into the atmosphere. Based on t...

| Summary: | Abstract A volumetric model of accidental oil spills on the land surface was developed, based on numerical methods for solving hydrodynamic equations, and taking into account the processes of oil spreading over the surface, its filtration into the soil and evaporation into the atmosphere. Based on the results of calculations using the hydrodynamic model for the most probable scenarios of oil spills, it is possible to obtain an estimate of the spatial-temporal scale of the spill, which, together with data on the terrain and the presence of water bodies, is the input data for the expert model. Based on the joint use of the hydrodynamic model of the oil spill and expert technologies, the territory of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the South Khylchuyu-Varandey oil pipeline were zoned in more detail. It makes it possible to predict the scale and areas most susceptible to negative impact in the event of an accidental oil spill, and to make the necessary decisions for the location of the spill response facilities, as well as the facilities themselves, already at the stage of selection and design of the pipeline route. |
