The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) offers this grant to update and analyze National Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) oil spill occurrence rates. This grant’s purpose is to enhance understanding of OCS oil spill risks and causal factors, improving response planning and regulatory reform. Key objectives involve compiling and quality-checking historical spill data, examining occurrences, and analyzing exposure variables to estimate normalized rates for platforms, pipelines, and U.S. barges. The project will also analyze spill trends, providing crucial data for BOEM’s Offshore Environmental Cost Model (OECM) to manage environmental risks.

| Additional Information on Eligibility: | The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act authorizes BOEM to enter into cooperative agreements with States affected by energy development on the Outer Continental Shelf. It also states 43 U.S.C. §1457b), BOEM is authorized to enter into cooperative agreements with a state or political subdivision (including any agency thereof), or any not-for-profit organization if: (1) the agreement will serve a mutual interest of the parties to the agreement in carrying out the programs administered by BOEM; and (2) all parties will contribute resources to the accomplishment of these objectives. This announcement is open to all such eligible applicants, including state agencies, non-profit organizations, and public and state-controlled institutions of higher education.This project is required to have a staff member of the applying organization as the Principal Investigator (PI). Cooperative research between interested organizations – i.e., state agencies, public universities, and non-profits in affected states – is always encouraged. Other non-federal organizations may be partners and their tasks and budgets should be included as part of the applicant’s proposal. |

| Description: |
The overarching goals of this study are 1) to update oil spill rates of OCS platforms, OCS pipelines, and U.S. barges, 2) to obtain oil spill information for BOEM’s Offshore Environmental Cost Model (OECM), 3) to analyze oil spill trend and casual factors. Having updated oil spill and oil spill occurrence rate data is critically important to analyze the potential risk and consequence of OCS oil spills, investigate causal factors contributing to the occurrence, size or frequency of oil spills, enhance oil-spill response planning, and target future regulatory reform to better manage risk. Specific objectives are:
