Oil Spill Response Organizations

Oil Spill Response Organizations (OSROs) play an integral part in OSPR's planned response to any oil spill incident. Lists of OSROs that are rated for Marine services and Terrestrial & Inland On-water services are linked below. A list of all rated OSROs with contact information is also provided. Each OSRO has been evaluated through OSPR's unannounced drill program and has the ability to rapidly respond to a variety of oil spill incidents.

This presentation provides guidance on how to interpret the OSRO Matrices: OSRO Matrix Presentation and Notes (PDF)
