This study simulates the spillage of 1460 metric tons of oil that occurred in January 2022 off La Pampilla Refinery, in central Perú. The oil slick was predominantly displaced northward along the coastline, driven by prevailing currents and winds in the region. The weathering analysis revealed that the removal of oil was mainly due to evaporation (28%) and beaching processes (70%) within 96 h after the initial release. The coastal areas spanning from Ventanilla to Punta Chancay experienced significant impacts from the oil spill, representing 96% of the total affected coastal extent. Specifically, Ventanilla and Santa Rosa Beaches and the National Reserve System of Islands were heavily impacted during the first 24 h, while the surroundings of Ancón Bay, Aucallama and Pasamayo beaches were affected after two days. This modeling case study provides valuable insights into the fate and transport of the Repsol oil spill.
本研究模拟了 2022 年 1 月秘鲁中部拉潘皮拉炼油厂附近发生的 1460 公吨石油泄漏事件。浮油主要在该地区盛行的海流和风向的作用下向北漂移。风化分析表明,在最初释放后 96 小时内,石油的去除主要是由于蒸发(28%)和海滩过程(70%)。从文塔尼利亚到蓬塔钱凯的沿海地区受到了石油泄漏的重大影响,占总受影响沿海面积的 96%。具体来说,文塔尼利亚和圣罗莎海滩以及国家岛屿保护区系统在最初的 24 小时内受到了严重影响,而两天后安孔湾、奥卡拉马和帕萨马约海滩周围受到了影响。这个建模案例研究为雷普索尔石油泄漏的命运和迁移提供了有价值的见解。
