Excerpt from The Evaporation and Concentration of Waters Associated With Petroleum and Natural Gas We are led to conclude that the changes in the waters incident to the extraction of gas and oil are largely of the same order as those by which the brines were formed. Marine water of sedimentation and ground water from other sources have been included and deeply buried in the sediments, where, in association With gas and oil, they have migrated and undergone concentration, accompanied by changes in the nature and relative proportions of the dissolved constituents. Concentration is due in part to the leaching of the sediments by the, migrating waters but mainly to the evaporation of water into gases that are moving and expanding through natural channels. Reactions between the dissolved constituents of different types of waters and between the dissolved constituents of the waters and the organic and inorganic' constituents of the sediments have been important factors in the formation of the brines and so also have mass action and reactions due to deep-seated thermal conditions.

Excerpt from Evaporation Loss of Petroleum in the Mid-Continent Field Investigation has further shown that the gasoline in crude oil evaporates from one-half to six-tenths as rapidly as the same gaso line after being distilled and stored, all evaporative conditions being the same. Many wastes in the oil fields are called necessary. By this is meant that the cost of preventing the waste is greater than the gain through. Saving. Evaporation losses have fallen heretofore in this category, but now they must be considered unnecessary. In other words, it is no longer economical for any handler of crude oil to permit losses through evaporation.

U.S. Arctic waters north of the Bering Strait and west of the Canadian border encompass a vast area that is usually ice covered for much of the year, but is increasingly experiencing longer periods and larger areas of open water due to climate change. Sparsely inhabited with a wide variety of ecosystems found nowhere else, this region is vulnerable to damage from human activities. As oil and gas, shipping, and tourism activities increase, the possibilities of an oil spill also increase. How can we best prepare to respond to such an event in this challenging environment? Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment reviews the current state of the science regarding oil spill response and environmental assessment in the Arctic region north of the Bering Strait, with emphasis on the potential impacts in U.S. waters. This report describes the unique ecosystems and environment of the Arctic and makes recommendations to provide an effective response effort in these challenging conditions. According to Responding to Oil Spills in the U.S. Arctic Marine Environment, a full range of proven oil spill response technologies is needed in order to minimize the impacts on people and sensitive ecosystems. This report identifies key oil spill research priorities, critical data and monitoring needs, mitigation strategies, and important operational and logistical issues. The Arctic acts as an integrating, regulating, and mediating component of the physical, atmospheric and cryospheric systems that govern life on Earth. Not only does the Arctic serve as regulator of many of the Earth's large-scale systems and processes, but it is also an area where choices made have substantial impact on life and choices everywhere on planet Earth. This report's recommendations will assist environmentalists, industry, state and local policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of this special region to preserve and protect it from damaging oil spills.
