1 19TH OSCE ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL FORUM Promotion of common actions and co-operation in the OSCE area in the fields of development of sustainable energy and transport CONCLUDING MEETING Prague, September 2011 Special Session 2 EEF.NGO/16/11 14 September 2011 ENGLISH only Development of national oil pollution system Black Sea Monitoring System for Oil Pollution (BSMS) Ukraine s experience in using different tools for forecasting and preparedness. National Project Manager OSCE Yaroslav Yurtsaba Leading National Expert OSCE Richard Lisovskiy National Experts OSCE Tetyana Gavrilova, Vladislav Semenov, Oleksandr Vasenko,, Vladimir Kresin. Within the project the following scientific researchers participated: Oleksandr Neprokin,, Olga Bratchenko, Oleksandr Leposhkin Analytical equipment GC/MS Agilent GC/MS MD 800, GC Mega 2 HRGC 8560 with capillary column and ECD, Fisons Instruments, Graphite Furnace AAS Spectr-AA Varian, Flame AAS Spectr-AA- 220 Varian, Spectrofluorometer SPF-500 Aminco, IR Spectrophotometers Spekord M80, UR-20, UV-VIS spectrophotometers Cary 1-E, Shimadzu, Helios, ph-meters I-130, ph-530, laboratory balances: BR110D,BR 211D, both Sartorius ande OXAUS. 1

2 Technical capabilities of UkrSCES Nautical charts S-57 2

3 ESI-maps verification Sheltered Artificial Structures Environmental Sensitivity Index: 8 Sandy beach Environmental Sensitivity Index: 3 Using GNOME with ESI-maps 3

4 Requirements to the data collecting and online output of the National oil pollution system (decision support system) Oil spill database Initial spill data input: Hydrometeorological Agencies Data (forecast), AIS, VT, EMSA CleanSeaNet, Using WEB-form Online output Spill modeling With GNOME, ADIOS software using initial spill data Black Sea Monitoring CMS Requirements for the Interactive map service (layers) Information which covers the following aspects is necessary for the full functionality of the service: Areas most sensitive and and vulnerable to to oil oil spills ESI-maps Traffic and and risk risk distribution Maritime traffic statistics (AIS (AIS density) Illegal oil oil discharge statistics Available resources for for combating oil oil spills in in the the Black Sea Sea area. Response vessels Firefighters Aircrafts 4

5 New Interactive map service Progress with BSMS mapping system Black Sea monitoring system for oil pollution 5

6 Cooperation The project was made possible due to to the generous financial contribution of of the Government of of Finland. Gaining useful experience from: HELCOM UNEP UNEP UNDP UNDP Black Black Sea Sea Commission SeaDataNet Data collecting/exchange: national, regional, local local agencies units of of the the Ministry of of Environmental Protection of of Ukraine,Ministry of of Emergency Response etc Looking forward perspective directions Obtain Obtain modern software (ArcGIS Server Server 10, 10, ERDAS Imagine 2010) 2010) Obtain Obtain cartographic materials --big big scale scale electronic topographic charts charts on on national & local local level, level, nautical charts charts for for l l the the whole whole Black BlackSea Use Use AIS AIS data data for for the the Black Black Sea Sea region region (for (for example software VT-Explorer with with the the capability to to store store databases for for marine marine traffic) traffic) Use Use and and process remote sensing data data on on illegal illegal oil oil discharges in inthe Black Black Sea Sea region region (for (for example EMSA EMSA CleanSeaNet satellite images with with the the appropriate software to to process them) them) Develop the the comprehensive Black Black Sea Sea decision-making support system such such as as SeaTrack in in the the Baltic Baltic region region (Ukraine s contribution could could be be to to develop Ukraine-specific part part of of the the system) 6

7 Our thanks to the Government of Finland and the OSCE Project Coordinator in Ukraine for contributing to the project results! 7
