Microbiological Aspects of Oil Pollution [PDF]
Proceedings of SPE Evangeline Section Regional Meeting, 1970 Abstract Observations from the Torrey Canyon episode indicate that seawater-oil emulsions are formed which make it difficult to estimate oil loss by evaporation. The oil itself had little injurious biological effect. The major biological damage was caused by detergent treatment.
