INTERSPILL PRESS RELEASE 11 JANUARY 2012
PRESS RELEASE – 11 January 2012
Interspill 2012, the European oil spill conference and exhibition, is less than 3 months away, opening on 13 March 2012. 100 % of the exhibition space has already been sold, with space being added to meet demand, heralding another successful event to be held in conjunction with Oceanology International, at ExCel, in London’s Docklands.
Chris Morris, the Chairman of the Interspill Steering Committee, said that “it is rewarding to see the strength of interest in the exhibition, and that bodes well for the conference. The event programme covers both traditional oil spill topics at the Conference, this year featuring an Offshore Oil Spill Forum, reflecting the concern and lessons from the Macondo incident. In addition, CEDRE will run Science workshops, and as in 2009, there will be a Spill Industry seminar run by Eurospill.”
The Preliminary Conference programme is now on the website, and delegates can now make reservations on line at www.interspill.com . Interspill 2012 will open on Tuesday 13 March, with an opening plenary session introduced by BBC Science correspondent, David Shukman, with keynote speaker, Vice Admiral Sir Alan Massey KCB CBE, Chief Executive of the UK Maritime & Coastguard Agency, to launch the theme of Working Together in a networked world. The exhibition and conference will continue until Thursday 15 March.
Interspill 2012 will feature innovations including conference presentations streamed live onto the exhibition floor. Lunchtime Debates on hot topics, Science workshops by Cedre, and Spill Industry seminars, all on the exhibition floor. The traditional Oil Spill conference streams will this year be augmented by an Offshore Oil Spill Response Forum. The scope of the event reflects the strength and breadth of the Organising Committee, which includes the European Spill industry trade organisations, the European Maritime Safety Agency, (EMSA), the International Petroleum Industry Environment & Conservation Association, (IPIECA), with support from the International Maritime Organization, (IMO), International Oil Pollution Convention Funds, (IOPC), the International Tanker Owners Federation (ITOPF) and France’s Centre of Documentation, Research and Experimentation on Accidental Water Pollution (CEDRE). In addition, the event is also supported by the UK Maritime & Coastguard Agency and CEFAS, the UK Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science.
Interspill 2012 is controlled by the European Spill industry associations, from Norway, NOSCA, from France, SYCOPOL, Eurospill and UKSpill, together with EMSA and IPIECA. Oil Spill Response Ltd. is the permanent sponsor of the event.

UKSPILL REPORT ON 2010-11
7 January 2012
To: Members of UK Spill Association
UKSPILL ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2010-11
OVERVIEW
2011 was the year after Deepwater Horizon, where for UKSpill, it was a return tomore normal levels of Association activity, which also coincided with more economic uncertainty. Whilst in the previous year, we had a flurry of events, in 2011, this died away to a low level of member events, but more support for international events in the USA and India.
In terms of participation in post Deepwater Horizon activities, the Oil Spill Response and Advisory Group (OSPRAG) concluded its review, and set up legacy groups. One, the Oil Spill Response Forum, invited UKSpill to become a permanent member in late 2011.
OSPRAG saw the need for trained and experienced spill responders as an important part of the armoury, and the role of the UK Spill Contractors Accreditation Scheme is planned to become a critical part. A new project, the Accredited responder Management System is being led by UKSpill and will be introduced in 2012 in conjunction with Oil & Gas UK, to support shoreline clean up in the event of an offshore blowout.
Over the years the Accreditation Scheme has been upgraded, and with the full support of the Agencies, this has been reflected in a steady growth in numbers of accredited companies. The Scheme suffered a loss in late 2010 when its independent assessor died suddenly, and a temporary Assessor was appointed, over 2010-2011, this did not work as well as hoped, and the need became obvious that a new approach was necessary.
In 2011, the Assessor team was augmented by 2 former Environment Agency officers joining, to bring the team to 4. In December 2011, the first Verification Workshop was held in Northern Ireland with the NIEA, to launch regional checks for multiple companies in addition to site visits for individual companies. The new team and approach proved successful, and this is now being rolled out in 2012, with the next workshop planned in February in the SW of England.
The Annual Members Meeting and Annual Dinner was held in January at Watermen’s Hall, in London and proved a success, and is being repeated in January 2012.
UKSpill is hosting Interspill 2012, at Excel, London, based on a co location with Oceanology International, over 13-15 March 2012. UKSpill has been involved in management of the event, with a high level of input from members. The result is that exhibition sales are 40% higher than 2009, and the prospects are for a successful event. The radical programme, expanding the range of activities, has been achieved with workshops, seminars and training.
UKSpill, as an Accredited Trade Organisation, secured funding from the government for member companies to attend IOSC 2011, at Portland, Oregon in May, and also at Oil Spill India in September 201, the latter a new event but well supported by 7 companies attending.
SpillAlert, the UKSpill quarterly newsletter is going well, with 2 years of quarterly publications, it is supported by advertising, principally by members, and the balance from UKSpill funds..
As always it is important to remind ourselves of the purpose for UKSpill – Promotion, Standards and Information for its members. In 2011, those three words have been reinforced by the Deepwater Horizon spill and its consequences, UKSpill membership is recognised by a much wider audience than before, UKSpill is the voice of the industry.
UKSPILL IN DETAIL 2010-11
Corporate Membership – Corporate membership has remained broadly stable at 46 with some resignations and several new members, which total combined with other categories, individual and honorary, now totals 55. Overall, UKSpill membership, including Accredited companies as non voting (basic) members, totals 124 at December 2011, up 10%, mostly from continuing growth in membership of the Accreditation Scheme.
Member Meetings – In the 2010-11 membership year we did not hold a UKSpill Marine event, deferring to 2012.
External Events – UKSpill obtained funds from UKTI for TAP funding to support 6 members exhibiting at IOSC 2011 in the USA, 2 companies took up funding, and the balance was transferred to fund the event in India.
Interspill 2012 – The Interspill Steering Group transformed into the Organising Committee, with IMO, IOPC, ITOPF, and CEDRE joining to plan the event.
As the host nation, UKSpill influences the event through its management, with UKSpill Executive Director as Vice Chairman of the Steering Committee, and Director of Interspill Ltd., alongside David Salt of OSR, as co director and Vice Chairman of the Conference Committee. Glyn Humphries, of Adler and Allan, was appointed Chairman of Interspill 2012.
The main task in 2011 has been to secure the financial base with exhibition sales, which has been achieved, and organise the programme of events, now wider than before. The forecast currently the event will generate a substantial surplus to be split equally between Interspill and Reed.
For UKSpill the benefit of partnering this event with other European Spill trade associations, IPIECA and EMSA is our contribution to its organisation, as it is our European platform. We have the opportunity to use it and make sure it is run in our interests.
Accreditation Scheme Management - UKSpill completed the upgrading of the Scheme, in the Spring, which to remind members, is to offer a website to promote Accredited companies and where the database of companies provides a valuable resource for the public, industry and Agencies in emergencies.
In 2011, the Accreditation scheme has only a few newly accredited companies, reflecting the loss of the Assessor resource. The backlog of applications resulted in the set up of a team of 4 Assessors, and combined with Verification Workshops to process companies faster than before. As in 2010, companies were rejected as failing to comply, as were companies suspended for failure to comply, and also companies failed to renew through change of business or closure. The net figure at the end of 2011 was 78, down on 2010, mainly reflecting the difficulties in processing applications, and more suspensions for failure to comply.
Government and Industry Relationships – UKSPILL is an ATO, an Accredited Trade Organisation recognised by UKTI with the Energy sector, this Accreditation was reviewed and UKSpill was re appointed in 2011. UKSpill also continues to sit on the Marine Sector Advisory Group, (MSAG). The association is also a member of the Emergency Planning Society Oil Spill Working Group, and the Energy Institute Oil & Water Liaison Group.
MCA Contract - The MCA remains supportive of UKSpill activity, and is committed to maintaining its 3 year MCA contract until June 2012. This recognises the support and partnership that exists, in particular with delivering a competent Accreditation Scheme.
FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR 2009-10
2010-11 ACCOUNTS – This year has seen a reverse in results, but in 2011, a return to a surplus of £2,900 (lower than the provisional results below reflecting a prior year adjustment) from a loss of £7,829 the previous year. The overall revenue has fallen, reflecting the lack of events. The year benefited from a reduction in event costs, lower accreditation charges, and a lower unit cost for SpillAlert, and higher advertising revenue as predicted.
Membership & Website income – Total income is up 6% to £55,300, from corporate membership and including sales of sponsored links. No significant change in membership income is expected in 2011-12.
Event and ATO income - This was reduced to almost nil, £1,175
Travel and Event costs – In 2009-10 ATO payments to members were higher reflecting a 2 events reflecting additional travel costs and offset by improved UKTI support approved for IOSC and India.
Marketing Costs – In 2010-11 these fell as forecast, with maintenance of the websites, and lower spilLAert costs resul09-2010, the opportunity occurred to re vamp the website, with the merger of the database for the Accredited companies and those corporate members of the trade association. This move delivers a coordinated listing for the government agencies who support UKSpill. This was also linked to the production of the SpillAlert quarterly newsletter, by creating an archive for the newsletter, and the papers presented at UKSpill events, all of which can be downloaded now in Pdf format. The SpillAlert is emailed to a global database of over 5,000 oil spill persons, who, if they wish to download a copy are directed to the UKSpill website home page. This has resulted in a doubling of throughput on the website, raising its visibility. The cost of this upgrade to the website, and the launch year of the newsletter has been a £9,000 increase in Marketing costs, this is not a recurring cost. The cost of SpillAlert newsletter is partly underwritten by advertising income, which was expected to cover more than half the costs, but in reality the launch year production cost was higher and the income only covered 40%. In 2011, advertising space is being increased, and rates have been raised, so far with success, so whilst the production cost of the newsletter will fall by 20%, advertising should rise by 20% to reduce the overall cost to £4000 pa, similar to spend on brochures in previous years.
Administrative Costs- The principal cost is the contract for operation of the association remained unchanged, but fell because of lower fees related to accounting which were transferred to an external company for 2010-11. The administration contract is with the Executive Director, and is renewed annually, and is supervised by a governance sub committee comprising the previous chairman, and a director of the association.
Accreditation Costs – These fell sharply in 2010-2011, but are expected to rise in 2011-2012 as the backlog of applications are processed, most of this will be offset by new revenue from the new applications.
2011-12 FORECAST – As with last year, fee income is coming in slowly, 2 companies have resigned, but new applicants are steady. ATO and event income is also expected to be stable with the Marine event planned for London, on the river this year. The forecast outcome for 2011-12 is expected to be similar to 2010-11.
