Title: | Derrames de hidrocarbonetos: quando o Oceano se cobre de negro | Authors: | Nunes, Adélia | Keywords: | Oceans;oil spill;Prestige;Portugal;Océans;Marées noires;Prestige;Portugal;Oceanos;Marés negras;Prestige;Portugal | Issue Date: | 2003 | Publisher: | Associação Portuguesa de Riscos, Prevenção e Segurança | Abstract: | Devido à localização geográfica e à extensa Zona Económica Exclusiva (1 683 000 km2), Portugal surge como um dos países europeus com maior risco de acidentes marítimos, em particular no que se refere ao derrame de hidrocarbonetos. E em muitos casos esse risco manifestou-se. Neste contexto, analisam-se três dos muitos derrames de crude que afectaram as nossas praias, dando particular ênfase aos yentos e às correntes marítimas que coadjuvaram no transporte dos materiais e desencadearam marés negras nas costas de Portugal. Por último, explana-se a evolução das manchas de fuelóleo vertidas pelo petroleiro Prestige, as quais se acercaram do nosso país, mas felizmente não o afectaram. Du à la localisation du Portugal et sa vaste Zone Economique Exclusive (1 683 000 km2) Portugal surgi comme un des pays avec le majeur risque d'accidents maritimes, en spécial dans l'épanchements d'hydrocarbures. Ce sont beaucoup les situations où le risque s'a manifesté. Dans ce contexte, nous avons analysé trais épanchesments qui ont affecté nos plages, attribuant plus d'importance aux vents et courantes maritimes qui favorisent le transport des matières tout au long de notre côte en créant une marée noire. Finallement, on présente l'évolution des manches de fuel-oil perdues par le pétrolier Prestige, lesquelles s'approchaient de notre pays, mais heureusement sans l'affecter. Due geographical localization and large Economical Exclusive Zone (1 683 000 km2), Portugal is one of the European countries with the biggest risk of maritime accidents, especially in terms of hydrocarbons leakage. And in some cases the risk was manifested. In these circumstances, we are analysing three of the various oil leakage whose affect our beaches, giving particular importance to the wind and sea currents that help in the material transport and to unchain oil spill in the Portugal coasts. At last, we explain the fuel oil evolution, loosed by Prestige, which were near our country, but happily did not affect it. |
