24 How Oceanographic Forecasts Improve Oil Spill Modelling Around Trinidad and Tobago CLIENT Coastal Dynamics Limited (CDL) CHALLENGE Accurately forecasting oceanographic currents, tidal currents and wind driven currents around Trinidad and Tobago Providing CDL clients with timely and trustworthy oil spill forecasts

25 How Oceanographic Forecasts Improve Oil Spill Modelling Around Trinidad and Tobago SOLUTION A calibrated oceanographic model for the Trinidad and Tobago area The software required to run daily forecasts of currents and water levels using the calibrated model An oil spill modelling software to run oil spill forecasts and oil spill scenarios The set-up of an operational current and oil spill forecast system at CDL premises, so CDL can provide its clients with oil spill forecasts

26 How Oceanographic Forecasts Improve Oil Spill Modelling Around Trinidad and Tobago CDL has had a long history of working with DHI in meeting our needs for numerical modelling for various aspects of environmental and engineering studies. As such, when the need arose to improve on the hydrodynamic data to be used as part of our environmental work we sought the advice of DHI in developing a robust and accurate flow model for the region.
