Ecotoxicological effects of decommissioning offshore petroleum infrastructure: A systematic review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Successful decommissioning of subsea oil and gas infrastructure requires a safe effective approach to assess manage waste products. These products, often present as scale on internals pipelines, include naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) trace metals. Understanding the potential effects these contaminants marine fauna is crucial managing global decommissioning. This review composed two aspects: 1) systematic was conducted synthesize literature all associated with decommissioned offshore structures NORM organisms; 2) critical current environmental regulations for characterization petroleum components. Studies defining chemical radiological were very limited. The main source identified from platforms, none structures. Only three studies measured variable radium organisms in infrastructure. No other NORM, such lead-210 polonium-210. Currently, there are no international pipeline closure, being underreported not addressed impact assessments. highlights research gaps monitoring Key recommendations future characterizing assessing through direct organism exposure experiments. emphasizes need incorporate ecotoxicology into risk assessment
