Growing offshore oil exploration and production operations, particularly in the South China Sea, Persian Gulf, and Gulf of Mexico, are driving the need for effective oil spill management systems. For instance, growing investment in safety technology and anticipatory spill containment equipment has arisen from the U.S.'s resumed offshore drilling and Brazil's and India's new E&P licenses in 2024.

Integration of Artificial Intelligence with Satellite Surveillance: AI-driven drone and satellite technology is transforming real-time oil spill surveillance. EMSA's CleanSeaNet upgraded its machine learning significantly in 2024 to enhance detection accuracy in European waters. This technological advancement accelerates containment decisions, reduces reaction times, and enables accurate limitation of the environmental damage caused by offshore and coastal oil spills.

North America is the largest oil spill management market in 2024 with over 40.6%. The market is also predicted to capture a larger share as there are increased oil and gas E&P operations. Oil spill incidents have taken place in the region as well, including Marathon Oil, Exxon Valdez, and Deepwater Horizon, resulting in the development of a tight regulatory system for onshore and offshore oil and gas production operations.
