Multivariate classification and comparison using principal component analysis and cluster analysis together with statistical analysis using onefactor ANOVA has been made on the alkylhomologue distribution (AHD) of naphthalene, dibenzothiophene and phen
Samples of produced water from the offshore oil production platforms Oseberg Feltsenter, Oseberg C, Brage and Troll B were collected during the period of October 1995 to August 1996.
Hydrocarbon analyses, using gas-liquid chromatography (GLC), have been conducted on benthic sediments from around the Beatrice A platform immediately after completion of the first well using low-toxicity oil-based drilling mud.
A 4-year multidisciplinary monitoring program was conducted between October 1986 and October 1990 to detect and quantify environmental impacts related to oil and gas drilling in the Arguello Field in southern California.

Within the European Water Framework Directive, many studies have been conducted to evaluate the sensitivity/robustness of a variety of indices in relation to natural or anthropogenic disturbance events.

The marine flatfish dab (Limanda limanda), which lives in direct contact with contaminated sediments, is frequently used as a sentinel species in international monitoring programmes on the biological effects of contaminants.
Various components of the mixed function oxidase system in the livers of Limanda limanda (Dab) were utilized to monitor the extent of pollution in the German Bight area of the North Sea.

Remobilization, bioavailability, and potential toxicity of chemical contaminants were evaluated at the 4H shell mounds – the site of abandoned offshore oil and gas production platforms in the Santa Barbara Channel region of the Southern California Bigh

Offshore hydrocarbon production effects are localized in the Gulf of Mexico extending only 200 m from platforms. Effects are caused by the contaminant gradient or the fouling community on platform legs.
