The objective of RETOS™ is to assist governments and companies in assessing their level of oil spill response planning and readiness management in relation to commonly agreed pre-established criteria considering international best management practices.
There are three tools:
- RETOS™ web application, available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French
- RETOS™ Oil Spill Response Planning and Readiness Assessment Manual V 3.0, available in English and Spanish
- International Guide for the Assessment of Oil Spill Response Planning and Preparedness, available in English and Spanish
The Manual and RETOS™ were developed with the support of regional and international experts from industry and government. Users can select the focus of the assessment from seven different scopes: facilities, industry-corporate and country local/national programs, among others.
