| Abstract | ||
| Increased world demand on energy is accompanied by an increase on oil production and transport. The transport of a huge amount of oil from production field to consumption countries caused series problems to the marine environment. The actual study is focused on the oil pollution in the Egyptian northern coast waters. Water samples were taken and analyzed and the average dispersed oil concentration in ppm is determined. The oil industry and specially the reception facilities on board and on land are responsible for this pollution. The study details the reasons of the accumulated oil pollution and gives recommendations to reduce the marine environmental damage. | ||
