Expert Systems for Marine Oil Spill Response Operations.
This paper examines the use of expert systems with respect to offshore oil spills. Expert systems in effect transfer the knowledge of an expert to a computer. The paper commences with a look at expert systems in general, how they work and who uses them. This is followed by an examination of their perceived strengths and weaknesses, as well as their existing and potential applications to marine oil spill response operations. They can save precious time in the event of a catastrophic marine oil spill,but can be complicated and costly to develop. The paper also assesses the potential for expert systems as one way of reducing the threat of marine oil spills in the Georgia Basin/Puget Sound region.
