Impact of Drilling Activities in Warm Sea: Recolonization Capacities of Seabed

Abstract: Résumé -Impact des activités de forage en mer chaude : capacités de recolonisation des fonds marins -Étant donné les contraintes importantes liées aux réglementations environnementales, le rejet des déblais de forage en mer doit être contrôlé. Il est par conséquent nécessaire de recueillir des informations afin de contribuer à la sélection de fluides de forage respectueux de l'environnement. Cette étude a été menée dans l'objectif d'évaluer, dans les conditions les plus réalistes possible, l'impact des déblais… Show more

“…In fact, barium is added to the drill mud in order to increase its specific density. Because of its very low reactivity (Dalmazzone et al 2004), Baconcentration is a good marker for the spread of the drill muds at the seafloor. For each station, the Van Veen grab was subsampled; a core with an inner diameter of 4 cm (corresponding to a sampling surface of about 12.5 cm 2 ) was collected and sliced every 0.5 cm until 3 cm depth and then every 1 cm until 7 cm depth.…”

“…In the last decennia several methods for monitoring the impact of drill cuttings contamined with oil-based drilling fluids on the benthic ecosystem in open marine environments have been developed (e.g. Davies et al, 1984;Dicks et al, 1988;Gray et al, 1990;Daan et al, 1994;Olsgard and Gray, 1995;Shimmield et al 2000;Gage, 2001;Grant and Briggs, 2001;Borja et al, 2003;Breuer et al, 2004;Dalmazzone et al, 2004;Durrieu and Bouzet, 2004;Muxika et al, 2005;Gass and Roberts, 2006;Flaten et al, 2007;Olsen et al, 2007). These methods are based on the analysis of benthic meiofauna and macrofauna, on the physico-chemical analysis of the sediment and/or on ecotoxicological tests on macrofauna, such as molluscs, annelids, crustaceans or nematodes.…”

“…The embryos and larvae of marine organisms are generally more sensitive to toxic substances than adults, and gametes and embryos of oysters have been recognised as valuable tools in toxicological studies. Because it is very sensitive and reliable (Dalmazzone et al, 2004;Galgani et al, 2009;His et al, 1999;Losso et al, 2007;Mamindy-Pajany et al, 2012), the oyster embryo bioassay might act as an early warning system and provide valuable information on global toxicity. The embryo-toxicity test was thus selected in this study to provide ecologically relevant information using rapid and cost-effective screening tools.…”

“…The effects of drilling activities located around the drilling well, with drill cuttings influencing oxygen consumption and oxygen penetration depth in the sediment, presence of black sediments indicating anoxic conditions, with high number of capitellid polychaete, genus Capitella, the more specific fauna replaced by original fauna, and the establishment of a recovery process in a short time frame have also been found by several authors, such as Smith and May (1991), Candler et al (1995), Daan et al (1996), Terrens et al (1998), Fechhelm et al (1999, Dalmazone et al (2004) and Trannum et al (2010), corroborating the results obtained in the present study.…”
