Responding to an oil spill requires access and understanding of many types of information. Effective, coordinated operations for the response are based on a shared, common picture of the situation. Interoperability provides shared situational awareness of the crisis and the response activities.
The OGP and IPIECA are conducting a Joint Industry Project to produce a recommended practice for an Oil Spill Response Common Operating Picture (COP) for management of the response. The presentation will provide an overview, plans and status of the OGP/IPEICA project being conducted with support from RDA and OGC.
