Abstract
In connection with the high risks of emergencies in the operation of Arctic shelf deposits, an important task is to provide such facilities with effective and environmentally safe technologies for liquidating oil spills on the water surface. In this study, the effectiveness of the reagent - the oil encapsulator, which is a biopolymer and used as an aqueous solution - was evaluated. The physicochemical properties are investigated and the maximum oil capacity of the encapsulator is determined. As a test environment, sea water and oil from the Prirazlomnoye field were used. The effectiveness of cleaning the water surface from an oil film with an encapsulator in laboratory conditions at low temperatures is shown.
