Activities
24/7 operational oil spill dispersion modelling. Dispersion model development and deployment. Capabilities and development concentrate mostly on Canadian waters and coastal areas, but spills on open sea (not involving coastal interaction) could be modelled at any location. Also capable of atmospheric dispersion modelling, for instance: smoke plume in case of major fire at sea, leaking gaseous cargo.
