Spills of oil and oil products on water represent a serious ecological problem, the consequences of which can be lethal for all life. Russia has a right to be considered one of the main global oil powers and recovers >540 million tons of oil per year, second only to the USA. Unfortunately, Russia holds first place in the volume of accidental spills of oil and its refined products. Environmental pollution results from the recovery, transportation, processing, and use of oil and oil products. A large part (~35%) of oil contacting water consists of transportation losses; ~32%, river waters; and ~10%, wastes from coastal areas. Oil flowing over water surfaces pollutes large areas, e.g., a unit volume of oil can pollute greater than a thousand times the volume of water.
