se drum funnels during oil transfer.

Secondary containment:
Purchase equipment and tanks that are double-walled.

Use spill pallets for all Bulk Stg (110% containment of largest container).
In-situ burning is much more effective compared to other methods of oil spill clean-up. It can remove up to 98% of oil. However, it cannot be used at every accident. The spill thickness must be at least 3mm on the surface to be burned.
Governments and the oil industry must have preparedness plans in place and understand what to do when an oil spill happens.
This makes it the single largest source of global temperature rise.
Challenges include removing residual oil from sediments, rehabilitating affected wildlife, and monitoring ecosystem health.
The oil can directly kill a wide range of organisms, from tiny plankton to large marine mammals and birds.
