Oil spill accidents occur with increasing frequency in the Chinese Bohai Sea because of the presence of extensive number of oil platforms and oil pipelines the Chinese Bohai region. An appropriate risk assessment for oil spill prevention and readiness is necessary. Risk assessment for the entire Chinese Bohai Sea based on a quantitative method is proposed. We created a hypothetical simulation of oil spill trajectories based on an oil spill model for 28 oil platforms in the Chinese Bohai region in 2010. Then, we mapped a risk index in the study areas based on a combination of oil spill trajectories and shoreline susceptibility data. Five high-risk areas were identified in the entire Chinese Bohai Sea. Detailed suggestions for prevention and readiness are described here. These results can help in developing a risk assessment of oil spills in the Chinese Bohai Sea and serve as a useful analytic tool for slick-related emergencies.
