About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) issued a Request for Information on enhancing spill risk analysis for Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas activities, with responses due June 5, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST. This is market research only; no contract award is intended, and the government will not reimburse response costs.
BOEM seeks approaches for assessing oil spill risk associated with OCS operations from industry, academic institutions, tribal governments, non-governmental organizations, and public entities. The focus is risk assessment rather than spill response. The agency prioritizes approaches using open-source tools with publicly accessible and independently reviewable modeling code and data.
Respondents should address four primary areas: methodologies for characterizing spill occurrence likelihood and variable spill locations (including subsurface scenarios), incorporating oil behavior dynamics and uncertainty communication; input data sources including historical spill information, operational data, environmental conditions, and ocean circulation patterns; modeling and analytical tools emphasizing transparency and reproducibility; and outputs useful for environmental analyses such as probability of resource contact, time-to-contact estimates, and outcome distributions.
Submit responses via email to Stephanie Brock at stephanie_brock@ios.doi.gov with subject line "RFI BOEM Spill Risk Analysis Enhancements." Include respondent UEI SAM, primary point of contact, and business type.
