Alaska Clean Seas

ACS has maintained an active oil spill R & D program since 1979 and acts as a facilitator for much of the research and development related spill response in arctic conditions. The R&D program focuses on specific areas such as oil spill recovery techniques in broken ice as well on, and under ice, and detection and tracking of oil under ice. ACS is considered an industry leader in the research of in-situ burning techniques and in-situ burning of water-in-oil emulsions.
