Background
Through this training-workshop, participants gained an awareness of NEBA and SIMA and their practical application in oil spill preparedness planning and response. The use of the concepts/tools helps facilitate the discussions between multiple key stakeholders to arrive at an agreed consensus in oil spill-related incidents by using a systematic approach to justify the selection of response strategies. Following the event, Oil Spill Response (OSRL) offered support in the local implementation of these concepts/tools in the Gulf of Thailand for those interested from the audience (e.g., developing further guidance to enable subregional/municipal level execution).
