Abstract: In order to make more scientific emergency decision for offshore oil spills and effectively reduce offshore ecological environment risk caused by such accidents, a risk and cost based emergency decision-making methodology was proposed, and main variables and time sequence nodes in escalation of offshore oil spills were identified. Then, an evolution model of accidents was established based on Bayesian network to assess ecological environment risk they caused. On such basis, by introducing emergency measures and considering execution cost and effect of different disposal measures, a Bayesian influence diagram model for emergency control of offshore oil spills was developed, which could determine an effect-and-cost-optimal emergency control strategy. The results show that a combination of sea surface burning and natural recovery is the best solution for oil spill disposal in real cases, which could effectively reduce risk and control cost.

Key words: risk and cost, offshore oil spills, emergency control, oil spills disposal, Bayesian influence diagram
