A rapid identification of oil would facilitate a prompt response and efficient removal in the event of an oil spill. Traditional chemical methods in oil fingerprinting have limitations in terms of both time and cost. This study considers machine learning models that can be applied immediately upon measurement of oil density and viscosity. The main objective was to compare models generated from various combinations of features and data. Under five different algorithms, the resulting models were evaluated in terms of their feasibility, advantages, and limitations (FAL). The extra tree (ET) and histogram-based gradient boosting (HGB) models, which incorporated physical features, their rates of change, and environmental features, were found to be the most accurate, achieving 88.55% and 88.41% accuracy, respectively. The accuracy of the models was further enhanced by adjusting the features. In particular, incorporating the rate of change in oil properties led to an enhancement in the accuracy of ET to 92.83%. However, further inclusion of secondary features led to a reduction in accuracy. The effect of input imprecision was analyzed. A 10% of inherent error reduced the accuracy of the HGB model to 60%. Comparing these FAL, machine learning can be a simple, rapid, and cost-effective auxiliary for forensic analysis in diverse spill environments.
