Spill prevention Oil spill management is central to ADNOC’s commitment to environmental stewardship, operational excellence and the protection of the ecosystems linked to its activities. Preventing hydrocarbon leaks and spills remains an uncompromising priority, supported by a preventive approach that includes training, spill response drills and sustained operational vigilance. The consequences of oil spills can be far-reaching, with serious implications for the environment and human health. Because oil spills can damage habitats and disrupt ecological resilience, aquatic and marine ecosystems are particularly vulnerable. In addition to the immediate environmental harm, restoration and recovery efforts are often complex, resource- intensive and prolonged, requiring sustained intervention to rehabilitate affected areas.
