The article presents the results of a comprehensive analysis of satellite radar and optical images of the water area of the northeastern part of the Black Sea where on August 7, 2021, oil was released when loading the Minerva Symphony tanker at the VPU-1 marine terminal of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium JSC (JSC “CPC-R”) in the area of the village Yuzhnaya Ozereevka near Novorossiysk. The analysis of the spread of oil pollution and hydrodynamics of water was carried out on the basis of four radar images obtained by SAR-C radars on the European Space Agency Sentinel 1A/B satellites and two optical images from the MODIS-Aqua and MSI-Sentinel 2A satellites. Estimates of the area and volume of oil pollution based on radar and optical images for August 7 and 8 are given. In the SAR image from August 7, obtained 98 minutes after the accident, the area of the sea surface contaminated with oil film was at least 0.21 km2, and on August 8, the area of the oil slick increased to 83 km2. The optical image of MODIS-Aqua dated August 8 made it possible to establish the shape and area of the oil slick in the interval between the two radar images, which made it possible to prove the continuity of the shape of oil pollution and confirm the role of a submesoscale cyclonic vortex in the spread of oil pollution over the sea. Meteorological data on wind speed and direction from various sources were used to estimate the speed and direction of oil pollution spreading from the source.
Keywords: Black Sea, oil pollution, Caspian Pipeline Consortium, satellite radar, optical images, submesoscale vortex, SAR Sentinel 1, MSI Sentinel 2, MODIS-Aqua
