Abstract

From the initial results, the penetratable ability of some types of spilled oil on the coastal materials from Mui Ne to Can Gio can be mentioned as followings: - For shore from Mui Ne to VungTau: if oil spill happens, oil can not sink deeply. So it is not difficult to clean up the shore. - For the shore surrounding Ganhrai gulf: the shore formed from fine materials which are rich of clay minerals, spilled oil will be retainedand remained at the upper part of the shore materials, and cause pollution for a long time. Such section must be considered as the priority in protection when there is an oilspill.
