Emergency Exercise Services

The BlueWater Team has had considerable experience over the past 11 years in conducting effective oil spill and emergency exercises for both facilities and vessels. We bring in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience to exercises for compliance to requirements by federal agencies, including USCG, EPA, Office Pipeline Safety, and Mineral Management Services. In addition, our exercises have successfully met the regulatory requirements of Washington, Alaska, Oregon, California, and other states.

The BlueWater Team has designed and facilitated more than 100 exercises since the NPREP guidelines were issued in 1994. We have specialized computer tools to provide an extensive array of modeling, spill trajectory, and environmental simulations to present effective, but realistic exercises. The USCG and response and safety agencies of various states have experiences with, and respect, our work.

Realistic training and readiness exercise programs aid the effective assessment of facility and vessel preparedness to respond to an incident. BlueWater brings professional involvement with regional and area committees to improving the value of each individual exercise program. Our exercises encourage a learning spiral that leads to growth in all areas of response.
