MODELING DILUTED BITUMEN BEHAVIOUR
Background: The Centre for Offshore Oil, Gas and Energy Research (COOGER), Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), is mandated to conduct oil spill research for the purpose of assessing the transport and fate of dispersed oil under realistic oceanographic conditions, for evaluating and developing countermeasure technologies for oil spill response, and for providing advice to stakeholders on best practices for regulating oil spill prevention and response.
COOGER's research includes conducting experiments in a wave tank facility at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to assess the effects of mechanical and chemical oil dispersion under various energy regimes (i.e. forces generated by different types of waves and current velocities). COOGER is currently studying the transport and fate of diluted bitumen (dilbit) in simulated sea states and environmental conditions. The research includes experimentation, analysis and validation of laboratory-scale studies, assessment of the physical and chemical properties of oil resulting from meso-scale experiments (including weathering processes), and evaluation of the efficacy of currently available oil spill countermeasures (e.g. chemical dispersants and oil-mineral aggregates) and their influence on natural weathering processes. Included in this is a requirement to undertake complex numerical hydrodynamic modeling of the fate and behaviour of dilbit during meso-scale (wave tank) experiments, and to translate information derived from the wave tank to large-scale (i.e. 'real world') oceanographic/spill conditions.
Requirement: The Department of Fisheries and Ocean, COOGER, requires a Contractor to provide specific expertise in hydrodynamic modeling of the behaviour and fate of diluted bitumen as derived through wave tank experiments through various work tasks on an as and when requested basis.
The Contract will be a Task Authorization Contract.
The Contract period will be 1 year with 3 option years.
There is no security requirement associated with this requirement.
The requirement is subject to a preference for Canadian services.
