“…According to the oil spill simulation results conducted on the Bohai Sea, it was determined where it would be beneficial to deploy oil spill response teams (Yu et al, 2016). The pollution caused by the Nassia and Independenta tanker accidents in the Çanakkale Strait was determined using the Oil Spill Simulator program (Usluer et al, 2022). In another study, 4 different scenarios were simulated in 4 areas determined in the Çanakkale Strait and it was determined that greater pollution than expected could occur (Usluer et al, 2020).…”

Turkish Sea Area is the most important waterway because of its geographical position. According to 2022 statistics of strait passage, 9904 tanker vessels passed through the Strait of Çanakkale. This statistical value shows that the Strait of Çanakkale is at risk due to the tanker vessels’ passage. On June 27, 2015, the Celestyal Crystal cruise ship and the STI Pimlico tanker ship collided in the Çanakkale Traffic Separation Scheme, approximately 0.7 nautical miles from the Gelibolu Lighthouse. STI Pimlico suffered an explosion in one of the port wing cargo tanks and listed 15° to port. There were no injuries in the incident, but it was reported that naphtha leaked from the ship into the sea. Directorate General of Coastal Safety teams responded to oil spillage immediately, the leak was taken under control before it spread too much. In this study, the pollution and spread that will occur in case the response of coastal safety teams is delayed has been estimated. The oil spill was determined according to time and place, taking into account the northerly wind direction and strength. Leak simulation was performed with the GNOMETM simulation program. Characteristic of cargo on STI Pimlico was taken from the ADIOS2 program. Results of the simulation showed that the spill reached the coast. 7 kilometers of the coast was polluted by an oil spill.

“…In this context, detecting marine pollution with satellite images, detection of suspicious vessels for oil pollution through the Automatic Identification System (AIS) integrated into the PISCES-II decision support system, detecting the source ship causing oil pollution by using the backtracking future of the PISCES-II system method have been applied. Another study which is carried out by Usluer et al (2022), in the chosen sample region on the Strait of Canakkale, one of the Turkish Straits, described how to simulate and forecast a tanker accident of the scale of the Nassia or Independenta by utilizing PISCES-II.…”

Experience and evolving technology have made it possible to combat marine pollution in more effective ways. Apart from a lack of appropriate reaction resources in prior oil spill catastrophes, presently Turkiye has more potent ability. The objective of this research is to establish the efficiency of the response to marine pollution which might emerge in the Istanbul Strait with the presently available functionalities, as well as to offer suggestions over what operational and technical upgrades could be made to ramp up this effectiveness. PISCES II (Potential Incident Simulation Control and Evaluation System) oil pollution modelling and decision support system was utilized to fulfil the study's purpose. In the conclusion of the study, correlative statistics prove how to use assets in the intervention action to combat oil pollution in the Istanbul Strait, how surface vessels are employed during these operational processes, as well as the significance of the initial reaction speed.
