      Mechanisms related to sub-seabed fluid flow processes are complex and inadequately understood. Petrophysical properties, availability of gases, topography, stress directions, and various geological parameters determine the location and intensity of leakage which change over time. From tens of seafloor pockmarks mapped along Vestnesa Ridge on the west-Svalbard margin, only six show persistent present-day ...
    • Observing Oil Releases from Platforms Using Synthetic Aperture Radar 

      Skrunes, Stine; Johansson, Malin; Brekke, Camilla (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018)
      Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is used for operational surveillance of ocean areas and oil spill detection. Oil spills are frequently detected around oil platforms due to the releases of so-called produced water (PW), which is water containing low concentrations of oil that can form surface slicks similar to other oil spills. PW releases are legal within given limits. Understanding the signatures ...
