Mathematical modelling of oil spill weathering processes for contingency planning in Izmit Bay

One of the main oil refineries in Turkey is located Izmit. This results a high volume crude and products handled Izmit ports. The region consequently at very risk for pollution. Due to destructive effects on various segments environment, comprehensive preventive measures crisis management related potential spill scenarios are necessary minimize contaminated areas. In this study, hydrodynamic data obtained from HYDROTAM3D, 36 scenarios, which involve Basrah light, Iranian Russian oil, evaluated weathering processes using ADIOS2. Although API gravities three different types within same range, their noticeably terms viscosity density. Moreover, light has higher evaporation increase rate compared other two oil. Of most likely hinder recovery actions. situations provide efficient actions, comparison modelling each type contingency planning.
