The IPIECA-IOGP Oil spill monitoring and sampling technical support document aims to help ensure monitoring and sampling activities are incorporated early in an oil spill response, by outlining the aspects that may be planned in advance, and providing guidance and tools to facilitate the initiation of a monitoring and sampling plan during the early days of an incident and as the incident evolves.

IPIECA and its member companies are committed to protecting their people, supporting the communities where they operate and continuing to provide the essential energy the world needs during this unprecedented time.

For 45 years IPIECA has provided a forum for members to collaborate and contribute to the sustainable development agenda.

The oil and gas industry must be a key part of the climate change solution. Since the Paris Agreement was made in December 2015, IPIECA has continued to work on the topic of low-emissions pathways.
