1. Executive Summary

Maritime New Zealand (MNZ) periodically commissions a marine oil spill risk assessment to be undertaken. MNZ uses these risk assessments to guide the management of oil spill response planning.

This report details the background, methodology, and results of the most recent marine oil spill risk assessment (MOSRA15). MOSRA15 was carried out by Navigatus Consulting and completed in April 2015. Key findings are presented in the form of map images, tables, and supporting explanations.

MOSRA15 represents the latest evolution of efforts to understand the maritime oil spill risk profile, spanning from 1992 to the present. Each project undertaken has built upon the previous and, while being outwardly similar, MOSRA15 represents a significant advance on MOSRA10.

For example, for the first time MOSRA provides an oil spill risk profile for offshore and vessel activity in the open water around New Zealand. MOSRA15 represents a natural update of information from the previous MOSRA10.

The outputs of MOSRA15 are, in summary:

u Tabular presentation of sector risk profile by vessel types showing % of total national oil spill risk; u Visualisations and listings of the overall national shoreline risk profile and environmental sensitivity; u Visualisations of the oil spill risk and environmental sensitivity to oil in the open water surrounding New Zealand (to ~200km from the mainland); u Graphical displays of oil spill probability for ‘high risk’ shoreline areas and ports; u Visualisations of the national shoreline navigational hazard profile and listings for each shoreline area; u Visualisations of relevant maritime activity around New Zealand; u A register of environmental and the associated value of features associated with each shoreline area; and u Visualisations and graphical display of a range of future scenarios associated with vessel trading and offshore exploration over a 5-year period.

Visualisations of these outputs are presented in the form of images and tables in this report (See Section 6 for the most significant results) and via an interactive website at http://mosra15.navigatusconsulting.com .

MOSRA15 has determined that the overall shoreline risk profile remains similar to that in MOSRA10. However, it is noted that:

u There has been some limited change in the relative risk across maritime sectors. This can be explained in part by changes in activity since the 2005 -2009 dataset, as well as advances in modelling and analysis – specifically consideration of sea currents and open water ecological vulnerabilities;

u The level of risk associated with tanker movement along the Northland east coast is rated as ‘High’, but the absolute level may not be as high as previously calculated. While this can be explained in part by some changes in activity, it is considered that the more advanced modelling of the effect of winds and currents accounts for most of the change seen; and u The Cook Strait area is rated higher than seen in MOSRA10. This can be explained by the more advanced modelling of wind and current.

The MOSRA15 sector contribution results are shown in the table below:

Sector Contributions Sector Shoreline Impact Basis Open Water Basis Foreign Tankers 60.6% 71.3% Domestic Tankers 19.6% 11.4% Foreign Passenger and Cargo 9.4% 12.7% Domestic Passenger and Cargo Vessels 9.4% 3.1% NZ Fishing Vessels 0.9% 1.5% Production Installations 0.03% 0.11%

The analysis of four potential future scenarios suggests that the overall risk profile is fairly constant regardless of reasonably credible changes in vessel activity over time.

The table below shows the change in overall risk level compared to the current situation (same risk measurement as used in sector analysis).

Shoreline Impact Scenario Open Water Basis Basis Baseline (MOSRA15 results) -% -% 1: Increased vessel size 21% 21% 2: Increased oil production -0.3% 0.2% 3: Scenarios 1 and 2 together 21% 21% 4: GFC type event -13% -17%

Scenario 1 (an increase in vessel size with a reduction in the number of transits) results in notably higher overall risk compared to the current situation. Scenario 2 (increase in oil production along with the addition of exploration wells) has little impact on overall risk of oil spill. Further analysis for Scenario 2 indicated that exploration activity risk equates to approximately 3% of current offshore risk (shoreline impact basis) and 33% of current offshore risk (open water impact basis). If in 5 years an event similar to the GFC occurred, the overall oil spill risk would decrease by between 10 and 20%.

2. Background

2.1 Project aim and deliverables

The aim of the Marine Oil Spill Risk Assessment 2015 (MOSRA15) was to provide information and insights that will inform policy, enable development of a future-focused strategy, and support risk-based oil response planning by Maritime New Zealand (MNZ) and other stakeholders.

The main objective of the MOSRA15 project undertaken by Navigatus Consulting for MNZ was the development of a risk model to map oil spill risk, that built and improved on previous models.

MOSRA15 was designed to deliver:

u An accurate picture of New Zealand’s current oil spill risk profile; u Deliver the capability of the previous MOSRA models but with the added ability to: w Account for various types of oil; w Enable sensitivity analysis to:

> Reveal the relative importance of maritime factors and modelling assumptions to inform stakeholder engagement and next-steps planning;

> 'Look ahead' scenarios to reveal the effect of known trends as well as a range of credible future risk profiles;

> Enable trends and future changes within and across sectors to be explored; w Reflect current environmental values and risk away from the New Zealand shoreline; w Enable risk based ‘Sector Contribution’ to be determined across the maritime industry (as part of its core capability); w Furnish relevant information (overview and drill down) for oil spill response planning functions (similar to MOSRA10); w Aid communication and explanation of the factors that contribute to the relative level of risk around the shoreline, away from the shoreline, and due to various activities.

2.2 Project history

MOSRA15 is preceded by a number of marine oil spill risk assessments, starting with the first national risk assessment undertaken in 1992 (see Figure 2.1). Each model has built on the previous model to ensure earlier developments are utilised, while also developing and improving the model.

Figure 2.1 Summary of national marine oil spill risk assessments

2.2.1 MOSRA10 MOSRA10, the last risk model, was built upon MOSRA04 (this was a specific requirement of how the associated analysis was to be built). This requirement gave MOSRA10 strength as it was able to utilise earlier developments, but it also meant some opportunities to advance the methodology could not be taken.

2.2.1.1 Strengths and improvements The main improvements of MOSRA10 over the models before it are summarised below:

u Extended the methodology by including a function to calculate the level of environmental risk; u Applied spill probability calculations to individual 20km compliant shoreline cells (based upon a NIWA developed shoreline cell system and superseding a recliner system used by MOSRA04); u Included consideration of oil-transfer facilities at ports; u Incorporated a user interface that could explore the effect of changing input factors on calculated risk and probability profiles; u Included web interface to engage with stakeholders and enable ‘drill down’ into the information displayed; u Incorporated much greater detail, quality and accuracy of environmental data; and u Recorded and made available the source of environmental and vessel data (metadata).

2.3 MOSRA15

The main limitations of the previous MOSRA10 that have been addressed in MOSRA15 are summarised below:

u Offshore oil production analysis was a 'bolt-on' function (and so change was difficult to model) – now integrated into the core model; u 'Impact' only occurred at the shoreline (and so was not able to consider far-off- shore risk or fully factor in the effect of off-shore activity and incidents) – open water environment now fully considered; u Assumed all oil types have the same environmental impact (sinking, floating, dissolving), which is a significant simplification – floating and dissolving now treated separately; u Did not consider the differing impact of oil types – impact of differing oils now considered; u Sector analysis was not a built-in capability and was difficult to undertake – sector analysis now a core capability; u Vessels that do not enter ports were largely invisible (including transfer tankers) – now captured; u Did not take account of currents – ocean currents now modelled; u Simplified consideration of shipping distance from shore – shipping movements now based upon AIS data; and u Assumed and therefore simplified shipping lane locations – now more fully modelled.

2.4 MOSRA15 project approach

The main stages undertaken to develop MOSRA15 are outlined below:

u Develop / build base model - Stage 1 (design); u Developed offshore environmental model; u Developed navigational safety risk functionality1; u Developed and built the base model - Stage 2 (build / test); u Detailed review and update of environmental shoreline information and ratings; u Stakeholder engagement; u Developed scenario model capability; u Prepared MOSRA15 report.

3. Data sources, assumptions, and limitations

The MOSRA15 study has the following key limitations:

u The calculated risk profile was built upon the available local and global information. Risk analyses cannot predict specific future events, only possible outcomes over time based on the balance of probabilities. This study was based upon the data made available – either via public sources, or as supplied by stakeholders - and the quality of the findings was determined in part on the quality of that data. u As is the norm for a study of this type, this project measured risk on two metrics: the probability over time of spill events occurring, and the impact should a spill event occur. In this case, impact was measured on a scale appropriate for the possible range of effects of oil coming ashore on the marine shoreline. Any impact was assumed to be unintended and unacceptable and therefore no acceptance criteria were applied to impact. Although this study is termed a ‘risk assessment’, strictly speaking, risk assessment includes a step of judging the acceptability of risk against identified criteria (ref AS/NZS ISO31000:2009). u The study was carried out at a level of detail appropriate for a strategic level study. As a result, the range of spill sizes considered was 1 tonne up to 99,000 tonnes and the physical discrimination for impacts was based upon a 20km shoreline distance and 10km hexagonal open water cells.

3.1 Event probability data sources

4. Analysis methodology

This section describes the core analysis engine of the risk model used to determine the oil spill risk to New Zealand shorelines and open water areas.

4.1 Risk determination

In MOSRA15, risk2 is determined in the following manner:

Probability of Oil x Environmental Rating = Risk

The probability of oil spill is calculated from the analytical model, Risk scale which contains the probability of oil being present in a cell and the expected amount of oil in that cell. Very High

The environmental ratings are then combined with probability of oil to High calculate overall risk. Moderate Both of these metrics are described in further detail in the following Low sections. The risk scale developed used the colour scale to the right to visualise the results on a map of New Zealand. Fuller details of the Very Low visualisation of risk results are given in Section 6.3.

4.2 Model overview

The model used to determine risk accesses data from a database, displays results on a webpage3, calculates sector contribution, and prepares graphic displays of risk profiles.

The spill likelihood component of the model is largely based on methodology used in MOSRA10 and the later sector analysis, with improvements made based on learnings from these and other projects.

The analysis identifies sources of risk (e.g. vessels, bunkering, wells) and types of events that could lead to marine spills (e.g. collisions, bunkering spills etc.). The analysis estimates the frequencies of these events using general industry research and global accident data, and uses event chain logic to estimate likelihood of a spill following an incident. Given the presence of a risk creating activity, the model calculates the probability of an accident occurring, the probability of a spill resulting, and the overall spill likelihood by spill size and vessel type. Figure 4.1 explains the model’s structure.

The model produces three main outputs: the risk for the New Zealand shoreline; the risk for the open water; and sector contribution. The open water model uses a hexagonal cellular scale while the shoreline, following on from MOSRA10, is divided into 20km long shoreline segments. The frameworks used are described in more detail in Section 5.

2 Strictly speaking, risk assessment includes a step of judging the acceptability of risk against identified criteria, however this was not judged in MOSRA15. 3 More information on the web interface can be found in Appendix A.

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

Figure 4.1 Model summary showing main analytical components and data flow

Key features of the analysis engine include:

u Carries out risk analysis for shoreline and open water cells utilising a hexagonal cellular grid; u Considers wind and current when determining the movement of oil; u Determines the oil decay separately for 5 different oil types and included the effect of different sea temperatures around New Zealand; u Results are grouped by floating, dissolving and oil persistency; and u Drew global routes and activity sourced from automatic identification system (AIS) data.

4.3 Key developments over MOSRA10 analysis

There are a number of key modelling improvements that are made in MOSRA15 when compared to the previous MOSRA10. These include:

u Consideration of the open water cells in addition to shoreline cells; u 17 vessel types analysed for spill likelihood compared with 8 previously; u Scenario analysis for changing vessel transits and amounts of oil carried; u Modelling for explorations wells; u Effect of current and sea temperature and its effect on the distribution of oil; u 2009-2014 vessel and transit data; u Updating environmental ratings; and u Including navigation hazard values.

4.4 Spill likelihood at source

The first step in calculating oil spill risk is to calculate the likelihood Figure 4.2 Event of an incident. This spill likelihood analysis is largely based on the chain analysis for spill methodology used in MOSRA10. likelihood The model takes an event chain approach to estimating the likelihood of a spill following an incident (Figure 4.2). Given the presence of a risk creating activity, the model calculates the probability of an accident occurring, the probability of a spill resulting from the accident, and the overall spill likelihood by spill size and vessel type.

4.4.1 Vessels The analysis calculates accident and spill probabilities for vessels by considering accidents resulting from:

u Collisions u Grounding u Fire/Structural Failure u Oil Transfer Incidents (Tankers only) when in port u Bunkering Incidents (vessels in port only). The effect of navigational hazards for each location is determined and included in the model to adjust the base probabilities for each accident type. Factors that make up the navigational hazard modifier are:

u Activity / Traffic Density – this includes number of vessel movements, oil exploration/drilling and other marine activities. u Physical Shoreline – considerations includes likelihood of groundings, collisions, ease of navigation using radar etc. u Environmental Conditions – this includes wind, currents, swell, and lee shore etc. (see Appendix C for further information on wind, current, and temperature). These factors are rated and combined to form an overall Navigational Hazard rating (see Appendix A). Probabilities for vessels in open water and in port are combined to form the base probability for an incident and resulting spill in an open water cell.

4.4.1.1 Vessel Activity AIS and other shipping data were used to build a view of shipping lanes, vessel routes, and the numbers of ships on each route. This allowed the analysis of the location and volume of potential oil sources.

Vessel movement

Domestic route information used visualisations from a 3-month period of the AIS. Information on domestic tanker movements was provided by Silver Fern Shipping. For fishing vessels, known activity was used to determine the areas of operation e.g. fishing

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx vessel routes from ports to known trawling areas. For foreign vessels, routes were plotted between New Zealand ports and from overseas locations to/from New Zealand.

Vessel numbers Table 4.1 Vessel sub-categories Table 4.1 shows the sub-categories that were Vessel Sector Vessel Type (GT range) used for vessels. Foreign Tankers Foreign Tankers Foreign Cargo / Foreign Container Data from the MNZ Navigator database were Passenger Foreign Cargo and used to determine numbers of New Zealand Passenger registered domestic vessels (by sub-category Foreign Other and homeport) while other sources were used Domestic Domestic Tankers (Large) Tankers Domestic Tankers (Small) to estimate the typical activities (e.g. ferry Domestic Cargo Domestic > 12,000 GT transits were modelled based on ferry and Passenger Domestic 4,001 - 12,000 timetables). Domestic 2,001 - 4,000 Domestic 401 - 2,000 For fishing and trawling areas, the transit Domestic 201 - 400 numbers were derived from a document titled Domestic <= 200 Fishing Activity: Seabed Trawling (Ministry for Domestic Fishing Fishing 4,001 – 12,000 Fishing 2,001 – 4,000 the Environment 2010) and used with images Fishing 401 – 2,000 derived from MNZ supplied AIS data Fishing 201 – 400 (3 months). Fishing <= 200

For foreign vessels, movement numbers were reconstructed based on the Foreign Levy Database, which records each port visit in New Zealand.

4.4.2 Offshore oil extraction Accident probabilities for offshore activity were calculated for:

u Supple Vessel Contact u Fixed Platform Fire/Structural Failure u FPSO Fire/Structural Failure u Well Leak/Structural Failure u Pipe Fire/Structure Failure u Shuttle Tanker Fuel Spill u Exploration Well Spill.

Accident probabilities for each accident type are based on generally available industry engineering and incident studies (see Table 3.1) together with expert judgement and were subject to the following modifiers:

u Accident exposure rates per year: w This was based on the number of rigs, wells, flowlines and pipes in a given open water cell (based on publicly available information); w Level of activity (e.g. shuttle tanker movements); and w Navigational hazard value.

11 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

The combination of these factors leads to the base probabilities of a spill occurring as a result of an incident.

Data on locations and numbers of offshore facilities were based on a number of different sources. The position and number of offshore platforms and FPSOs is based on data from the Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) graphical information system (GIS). New Zealand Petroleum and Minerals provided data for offshore wells. Offshore pipelines were sourced from a combination of LINZ GIS and the Petroleum Basin Explorer supplemented with nautical charts. It was assumed flow lines were attached to each wellhead, except where directional drilling had been employed.

4.4.1 Offshore oil exploration In addition to current offshore activities, the expected future oil exploration wells are also considered. Accident probabilities are calculated for 6 rigs, in 6 different notional drilling locations and it was assumed they would drill 6 months at a time. These drilling locations are representative of the type of well location that may be chosen by the operator - they are located approximately at the centroid of each licence area. These licence areas were supplied by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) Petroleum and Minerals branch.

As with offshore activities, accident probabilities for exploration wells were based on generally available industry engineering and incident studies together (Etkin 2014; Etkin 2009) and were subject to the following modifiers:

u Accident exposure rates per year w This is based on the number of wells in the open water cell; w Level of activity; and w Navigational hazard value. The combination of these factors leads to the base probabilities of a spill occurring from exploration activities as a result of an incident.

4.5 Oil dispersion from source

The second step in determining the influence of an oil spill Figure 4.3 Summary of is to determine the oil dispersion in the event of a spill. model approach

Similar to the spill likelihood at source, the model again takes an event chain approach to estimating the dispersion of oil following a spill. Figure 4.3 illustrates this event chain approach.

When a spill event occurs in a marine environment, three key factors influence the dispersion and travel of oil from the source of the spill. These can be categorised as:

u Wind velocity and direction; u Current velocity and direction; and

u Oil persistence.

4.6 Environmental consequence

The third step in determining risk is to consider consequence. This sub-section describes the methodology used to assess the environmental consequence, and summarises the subsequent inputs into the overall calculation of risk. Fuller detail of the environmental system and ratings can be found at Appendix D.

The entire New Zealand shoreline can be considered important to people local to that area. However, the environmental assessment has to discriminate consequence across differing areas so MOSRA15 can provide useful information about the geographic distribution of impact and (when combined with oil spill probability) risk.

For both floating and dissolving oils, the consequence ratings considers effect (including impact and recovery time), and importance (including uniqueness and distribution). The assessment used publically available information. No fieldwork was undertaken as part of the MOSRA15 project.

4.6.1 Shoreline For the shoreline, the following effects categories were considered:

u Species u Habitats u Social, amenity and recreation u Culture and heritage u Economic. The main data sources used and their limitations are summarised in Section 3.2.

13 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

4.6.2 Open water For the open water, the following categories were considered:

u Species u Habitats.

Only the species and habitats categories are Figure 4.4 Example of NABIS included as other categories are not expected to information layer suffer significant effects due to wide distribution of the resource in the open water.

The main data sources for the open water were the National Aquatic Biodiversity Information System (NABIS) information layers obtained from the Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI) web site. These were loaded in GIS format and converted to match the open water geospatial grid. These layers were then assigned an environmental rating in the assessment stage. Figure 4.4 shows an example of a NABIS layer used in the analysis.

4.6.3 Environmental scale The scale used in MOSRA15 is based on the scale used in MOSRA10 – for the most part only minor adjustments were made to improve clarity and consistency in ratings.

The overarching scale used for considering environmental consequence is shown in Figure 4.5. The methodology used a semi-quantitative natural order of magnitude scale (similar to a natural logarithmic scale).

As environmental values are subjective and difficult to measure, this scale is helpful as it provides a significant step up between consequences – each subsequent level has to be clearly higher than the previous level. This approach is useful as it aided agreement of level of impact despite being qualitative in nature.

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

The highest rating in a category for a cell drove the overall rating for that cell. Only the highest rating value for each category in a cell was displayed on the output.

Figure 4.5 Overall guidelines for environmental consequence ratings

The species value category can be used as an example of how the scale works. For species the following factors might result in a clear step up or down the scale: the difference between threat ratings (e.g. Nationally Critical birds are a clear step up from Nationally Endangered birds); the importance of a site (e.g. a breeding spot is a clear step up from normal habitat range); or the difference in impact (e.g. dissolving oil are a clear step up from floating oil for invertebrates).

While the other value categories have different overall guidelines and the specific factors considered are different, the same logic and approach applied. The method for each value category is described in more detail in Appendix D.

4.6.4 Environmental inputs into risk calculation The environmental ratings for the shoreline and open water are combined with oil spill probability to calculate overall risk. The environmental inputs are summarised below.

4.6.4.1 Shoreline For the shoreline, the environmental ratings for each cell are provided in Appendix E.

4.6.4.2 Open water Figure 4.6 below shows the overall environmental consequence ratings for open water areas. Labels have been added to show the values that drove the Very High and High rated open water areas. This can be explored in considerably greater detail via the web- interface (http://mosra15.navigatusconsulting.com).

5. Framework for displaying risk profile

Given the large geographical area of the risk profile, the model is based upon a geospatial framework. This enables the location of sources of oil, hazards, transport factors and sensitivity (and, hence, risk) to be properly accounted for in the model.

Although probability is calculated using a quantitative model and risk is determined semi- quantitatively, the sensitivity, presence, and risk is best communicated visually. This allows users to immediately process information as the colour communicates relative level or intensity for the various metrics.

5.1 Shoreline

The shoreline profile uses the system developed for MOSRA10 (~20km shoreline cells). The width (distance from shore) is nominally 10km. The 10km distance was simply to Figure 5.1 Example of shoreline risk profile enable visualisation, as opposed to representing the true seaward extent of impact. The actual shoreline-to-open water extent was limited to the potential for oil to effect the littoral environment and immediately associated ecosystems and features.

Figure 5.1 shows an example of how the shoreline framework was applied at the Chatham Islands – the image shows the shoreline risk profile for each of the shoreline cells. That is, the effect of oil spill combined with the likelihood of oil being present (the final step in the analysis).

5.2 Open water

For open water, a separate geospatial framework was required to allow locational information related to environmental sensitivity and risk to be preserved and displayed. This is a framework based on a 10km hexagon. Figure 5.2 shows the hexagonal grid and Figure 5.3 shows how they are displayed in the web output.

The area analysed covers an approximately 400,000 km2 area centred on New Zealand. This area reaches approximately 200km beyond any part of the main islands4.

MOSRA15 did not analyse the whole of the New Zealand Exclusive Economic Zone (NZ EEZ) due to the complexity of the oil spill analysis (if using a grid big enough to encompass the whole NZ EEZ), vessel activity tending to be limited to specific areas, and as there is a natural reduction in risk with distance from ports and maritime activity.

4 The Latitude and Longitude of the reference point of the area (North West corner) is 32.0167 South, 165.4394 East

While 63% (by area) of the NZ EEZ was analysed by MOSRA15, an overview analysis undertaken comparing the MOSRA15 area to the whole NZ EEZ area determined the difference in total risk to be less than 1%. This indicates that the majority of significant activities and features, and hence risk, of the NZ EEZ were captured by the MOSRA15 analysis.

6. Results

This results section provides an overview of the findings of MOSRA15. The amount of information available could be overwhelming so only a select few results have been presented in this report. Additional results are available in the appendices and outputs can also be explored in more detail via the web interface.

6.1 Type of results available

6.2 Sector analysis

This section describes the estimated oil pollution risk for each marine sector in New Zealand.

Two methods were used in MOSRA15 to determine the sector contributions to New Zealand’s pollution risk: the impact to the New Zealand shoreline-basis; and separately, impact to the open-water-basis. This separation is the result of there being no defined relationship between the relatively well-understood impact of oil on the shoreline and the social value of that, compared to the less well understood impact of oil in the open water area. Also the impact at the shoreline includes species, cultural significance, economics, habitats and social activities, whereas for the open water only species and habitats were considered. This was a major extension over the previous MOSRA projects that only considered the shoreline impact. Results from the two methods are shown in Table 6.1.

6.2.1 Outputs The sector contribution results are given in the table below. Table 6.1 Oil Pollution Risk Sector Contribution by Marine Sector as determined by the analysis.

Sector Contributions

Sector Shoreline Impact Basis Open Water Basis

Foreign Tankers 60.6% 71.3%

Domestic Tankers 19.6% 11.4%

Foreign Passenger and Cargo 9.4% 12.7%

Domestic Passenger and Cargo Vessels 9.4% 3.1%

NZ Fishing Vessels 0.9% 1.5%

Production Installations 0.03% 0.11%

6.2.2 Discussion of outputs Overall, the foreign tankers sector contributed the largest proportion to oil spill risk, both for the shoreline and for open water.

When comparing the outputs for the shoreline and open waters, domestic vessels have a higher proportion of shore-line risk compared to in open water. Conversely, foreign vessels have a higher proportion of influence in open water. The shipping lanes of each vessel can explain this result, as domestic vessels operate close to the shoreline and visit a higher number of ports. Foreign vessels, on the other hand, largely transit further from land and so have a greater effect in open water.

6.2.3 Sector comparison to 2012 sector analysis The sector proportions in the new model differ from previous risk assessments and sector analysis produced in 2012, although it is important to note that the sector analysis is a relative measure.

There have been notable apparent increases in the risk, and hence the percentage contributions, for tankers and to a lesser extent, a lowering for foreign passenger and cargo. Due the relative nature of the sector analysis, the increases in the tanker levels also result in a decrease in the percentage for production installations and foreign passenger and cargo. Additionally, the level of risk created by the current offshore oil and gas production activity is lower than calculated in 2012.

Inspection of the results as well as the many input factors and analysis methodology revealed the following factors are material to the differences observed:

u Cargo compositions: The proportions of tanker cargo oil by type were not available for the 2012 analysis and so assumptions were made. Actual cargo information for the proportion of persistent and non-persistent oil is now known having been supplied by the industry. MOSRA15 includes this information and the relative proportions between the oil types are notably different.

u Temperature and Current: MOSRA15 models the effect of differing seawater temperature across the New Zealand latitudes as well as the differing ocean drift. This is a significant advance over the MOSRA04/MOSRA10 analysis methodology that did not model current and assumed one water temperature. For some areas, i.e. around the Taranaki Bight, the currents tends to set to the south so spilled oil would tend (on the balance of probabilities) to drift towards Cook Strait.

u Navigational hazard rating: For MOSRA15 an expert panel was used to determine the level of navigational hazard for areas around New Zealand. Factors considered were activity density, physical shoreline characteristics, and environmental conditions. These values were incorporated in the accident probabilities to better model the probability of a spill. MOSRA10, on the other hand, only considered activity level – and in a simpler way.

u Relative proportions of other sectors: An increase or decrease in risk of other sectors has a notable effect on the relative percentage contributions of other sectors. These changes come from the advanced modelling of navigational hazard values, environmental values, and vessel routes, but most notably from now having actual data on oils being carried by the tankers.

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

Other factors that contribute to the difference are:

u Advances in modelling: Although probably less material to the differences in results, a number of improvements were made in MOSRA15 over earlier analysis. These include:

w Distance from shore: MOSRA10 used a simplification for vessel distance by region.

w Knowledge of ship tracks: AIS data was used in MOSRA15 for determining vessel routes. This was not available to MOSRA04 and 10.

w Types of oil: All oil types have been treated and analysed separately throughout the model. Again, this is an advance over MOSRA 04 and 10.

w Offshore Modelling: Greater detail was used in the model for well leakage by separating out ‘oil’ and ‘gas condensate’ wells and pipelines. u Updated input values: Updated environmental values and new inputs for shipping routes since previous MOSRA.

6.4 Shoreline results comparison to MOSRA10

Given that MOSRA10 produced a risk profile for the shoreline only, direct comparison with MOSRA15 can only be made for the shoreline. Note that sector differences are discussed in Section 6.2.3.

Nationally, the most notable change is that areas of high traffic density or activity, and areas where navigational hazards are higher, generally rate higher relative to other areas in MOSRA15 than in MOSRA10. This can be explained by the more advanced consideration of the factors that create navigational risk. The key advances have been:

u More advanced and precise modelling of sea currents: Currents play a dominant role in determining the movement and distribution of an oil spill. u Modelling of sea temperature: MOSRA04 and 10 assumed one temperature across of the whole of New Zealand. MOSRA15 applies three differing temperatures. Temperature has a significant effect on oil transport following a spill. u More advanced and precise modelling of the effect of wind.

With regard to specific areas of changed risk profile, the risk level for the east coast of Northland stands out as being generally lower than that calculated by MOSRA10.

Figure 6.7 Risk profile for Northland in Mosra10 and MOSRA15 MOSRA10 MOSRA15

The differences in risk level for the east coast of Northland can be explained by:

u More advanced modelling of navigational hazard values; u Improved knowledge of vessel routes; and u Changed amounts and types of oils being carried by the tankers.

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

6.5 Scenarios

The future trends in the marine industry were modelled as part of MOSRA15 to determine the sensitivity of the risk profile to these changing trends. Consideration was given to the changes in vessel size, transit numbers, and port visits which may occur in the next five years to 2020.

The background and basis for the development of the scenario models was sourced from a document titled Future Freight Scenarios Study (Ministry of Transport 2014). The following key trends where considered when developing the four scenarios:

u The average size of vessels serving the New Zealand market has been increasing over time (Consistent with international trends). This affects both large and medium sized vessels. This increasing size is generally coupled with decreasing number of transits in an effort to gain economies of scale. u Foreign vessels will use key hub ports with domestic vessels and other modes of transport used for completing the cargos transit. u Some trade consolidation for foreign cargo movements at major ports in both islands, namely Ports of Auckland, Port of Tauranga, Port of Napier, Port of Lyttelton and Port Otago. This is due to physical limitations (channel depth and vessel length) along with economic rational. u For the near future, the maximum container ship size that may operate to New Zealand would be Panamax or vessels up to 4,500 Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit (TEU). Underpinning this is the release of a large number of these vessels after the opening of the widened Panama Canal scheduled for 2015, which will allow transit of a new class of Panamax vessels. u In approximately 10 years there is a small probability that vessels up to 8000 TEU may be making trips to New Zealand.

When modelling the four scenarios listed below, information from the Ministry of Transport document provided guidance on expected increase in vessel size, and what the consolidation of ports would mean for shipping activity. When matched with import and export numbers from Statistics New Zealand (Statistics New Zealand 2015), this provides a means of determining the changes in vessel transits. Changes in oil production have been sourced from the energy and data modelling resource (Ministry of Business Innovation and Employment 2014).

The four following scenarios were modelled to represent projected changing expected in risk over the next five years to 2020.

1) Increased Vessel Sizes and Port Consolidation This scenario considers an increase in vessel sizes and a corresponding decrease in transits (for all vessels except domestic passenger vessels). In addition there is a consolidation of port visits for foreign container vessels.

2) Explorations wells This scenario considers volume and route information that is the same as the baseline data but with a greater level of oil production and the addition 6 explorations rigs operating for approx. 6 months of a given year.

29 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

3) Scenario 1 and 2 occurring at once This scenario combines scenario 1 and 2. This reflects the notion that larger vessel sizes could be operating while there is an unrelated increase in oil production along with exploration drilling occurring.

4) Effects of another Global Financial Crisis This scenario reflects the effects of the global financial crisis in 2008-2009 during which vessel transits and oil production decreased due to lower trade.

6.5.1 Overall risk change for scenarios The change in risk for each different scenario was compared to that of the current modelling (i.e. the MOSRA15 results).

The two tables below show the change in overall risk over the next 5 years for each of the four scenarios. Two different measures of risk were used:

u The first table shows the change in risk level based on volume independent risk (probability x environmental value). This measure is most important when considering the prevention of oil spills. u The second table shows the change in risk level based on volume dependent risk (total expected oil x environmental value). This measure is most important when considering the size of oil spill and required response resources.

The tables below, showing both measures of risk, display the same trend for each scenario, although the volume dependent risk measure (second table) indicates the greater sensitivity.

Table 6.2 Changes in total risk for each scenario (volume independent risk)

Scenario Shoreline Impact Open Water Basis Basis Baseline (MOSRA15 results) -% -% 1: Increased vessel size 7% 2% 2: Increased oil production -0.2% 0.2% 3: Scenarios 1 and 2 together 7% 3% 4: GFC type event -4.0% -11%

Table 6.3 Changes in total risk for each scenario (volume dependent risk)

Scenario Shoreline Impact Open Water Basis Basis

Baseline (MOSRA15 results) -% -% 1: Increased vessel size 21% 21% 2: Increased oil production -0.3% 0.2% 3: Scenarios 1 and 2 together 21% 21% 4: GFC type event -13% -17%

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

As per Table 6.2 and Table 6.3, Scenario 1 (an increase in vessel size with a reduction in transits) has considerably higher overall risk compared to the current situation. Scenario 2 (increase in oil production along with the addition of exploration wells) has little impact on overall risk of oil spill. If in 5 years an event similar to the GFC occurred, the overall oil spill risk would decrease.

6.5.2 Change in sector contributions The sector analysis was repeated for each scenario to show how the proportions between each sector change for the different scenarios.

The tables below show the contribution of each sector to overall risk for each scenario for the shoreline (first table) and open water (second table).

The graphs below show the change in the contribution of each vessel type compared to the current sector contributions for scenarios (e.g. the scenario contribution minus the baseline contribution as shown in the Table 6.2 and Table 6.3).

For example, the graph below shows the biggest change in sector contribution for shoreline impact would be the increase in the contribution of domestic cargo and passenger vessels under the global financial crisis scenario.

Figure 6.8 Percentage change in contributions of each sector compared to current sector contributions

Overall, the pattern for each scenario is broadly similar to the current proportions of sector contributions (no more than a 5% change in proportion of contributions for any sector).

MOSRA15 Final Report.docx

6.5.3 Scenario results summary The overall risk and proportion of sector contributions for each scenario are summarised below in comparison to the current situation (i.e. compared to the MOSRA15 results).

1) Increased vessel sizes and port consolidation

w For both the shoreline and open water, overall risk increases under this scenario. The increase in risk is as much as 21% more than the current situation when measured based on total expected oil and environmental value.

w Of the total risk, foreign tankers and domestic cargo and passenger vessels would contribute a slightly higher proportion than under the current situation, while domestic tankers and foreign cargo and passenger vessels would contribute proportionately less. 2) Explorations wells

w For this scenario, the overall risk for both shoreline and open water is very similar to that of the current situation. w The proportion each sector contributes to risk is also very similar to the current situation. w Further analysis for this scenario indicates that exploration activity risk equates to approximately 3% of current offshore risk (shoreline impact basis) and 33% of current offshore risk (open water impact basis). 3) Scenarios 1 and 2 occurring at once

w Scenario 3 has very similar results to Scenario 1 (because the added effect of Scenario 2 is small). 4) Effects of another Global Financial Crisis type event

w For both the shoreline and open water, overall risk under this scenario decreases compared to the current situation. When measuring risk using total expected oil and environmental value, risk decreases by 13% for the shoreline and by 17% for the open water. w Of the total risk, domestic cargo and passenger vessels would contribute a higher proportion than under the current situation, while foreign vessels and domestic tankers would contribute proportionately less.

MOSRA 15 Appendix

Appendix A Web Browser Interface

This appendix describes the web browser interface used to communicate the complex and extensive information produced by the MOSRA15 analysis.

Page A1 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

1 Web browser interface Given the advanced form of the MOSRA15 analysis and significant increase in complexity and volume of data, as well as a considerable increase in available information produced, communicating its meaning can be difficult in written form.

A web-browser interface with an interactive graphical display offered the ideal vehicle to communicate the risk profile despite the complexity. The web interface enables enhanced investigation and interrogation of the many features and facets of the analysis and risk profile. The web link is: www.mosra15.navigatusconsulting.com

The interactive web display was initially developed to enable the project team to view and assess both the information used as inputs to the model (environmental information and ratings, navigational hazards, vessels and other sources of oil, location, etc.) and the outputs produced (probabilities, volumes, ratings and risks).

The display allows inspection and immediate access to the information that drives the level of marine oil spill risk for each open water and shoreline area. Although not a defined deliverable of the MOSRA15 project, the web interface enables greater and more customisable viewing of results than the main report can. The interface should be regarded as a valuable and complementary annex to the main report.

1.1 Instructions for use

The web interface is illustrated below (Figure 1.1) to explain the information available. The web interface consists of a map of New Zealand combined with visualisations of the open water and shoreline areas in the left hand frame, with specific information for the selected open water or shoreline cell shown in the right hand frame.

MOSRA15 Appendix

Appendix B Categorisation of oil types within the MOSRA15 analysis model

This appendix describes the categorisation of oil types considered within the MOSRA15 model.

Page B1 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

1 Categorisation of oil types This section is derived from the original MOSRA system of oil categorisation with advances to reflect the more advanced requirements of MOSRA15.

Following the methodology used in the 1998, 2004 and 2010 MOSRA studies, MOSRA15 splits the types of oil handled in New Zealand into five categories that represent the characteristics of each oil type when spilled on water. This categorisation is based on the work of Allen & Dale (1997), which in turn was based on classification systems used by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and International Tanker Owners Pollution Federation (ITOPF).

The five categories are presented in Table 1. The ‘Group’, ‘SG’ and ‘Description’ headings were used in the previous MOSRA, “Class” was added to support the Pollution Sector Analysis study in 2012, and ‘Fate’ has been added for the MOSRA15 analysis.

Some portion of all spills will evaporate, dissolve and remain as floating residue 5Contains longer chain hydrocarbons and waxes that will remain as a floating residue

Page B2 Appendix B - Categorisation of oil types within MOSRA15 model

In order to more accurately categorise the oils carried in New Zealand waters, some variations were made against the SG scale. These include:

 All residues were included in Group IV even if the SG was less than 0.95. Residue was ‘topped’ crude oil similar to fuel oil so was best represented by this grouping.  While some crude oils (both local and imported) have high pour points due to their wax content, which can make spill characteristics worse, this was not used to adjust the categorisation. In previous studies, the local crude oils (McKee Blend and Maui F) were classified as Group IV. While their pour points were relatively high, (10-200C) they are lower than some imported crude oils, so were not deemed a special case. Both of the indigenous crude oils have a very low residue percentage, despite the higher pour points.

Gas oil specifications (mainly in terms of cloud point) vary with time of year and delivery location, but this should not significantly affect the fate and behaviour of this product in the event of a marine spill. Marine gas oil (MGO) was not always available in New Zealand, although it is now available at a limited number of locations. Other than sulphur and cold properties, MGO is similar to AGO and therefore should behave in similar fashion in the event of a marine spill.

2 Persistent and non-persistent oils For the purposes of assessing environmental impacts, the persistence of the oil in the marine environment was the main factor. As seen in Table 1, the oils were divided into two classes: persistent and non-persistent. In general, non-persistent oils are those that are more volatile and will evaporate and/or disperse relatively quickly. They are also generally more toxic to marine life. Persistent oils are denser, more likely to form oil-water emulsions, and are slower to disperse, but generally have a smothering effect rather than being particularly toxic. Importantly, it should be noted that there is no universally accepted definition of non- persistent/persistent oils although ITOPF has developed the following definition for non- persistent oils:  At least 50% by volume distils at 3400C; and  At least 95% by volume distils at 3700C.

This definition works well with refined products (up to AGO) being classified as non- persistent along with condensates, while all crude oil and heavier products are persistent. This split is similar to that used in shipping contracts where feedstocks and products are classified as white (non-persistent) or black (persistent).

Page B3 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

3 Fate of spilled oils Non-persistent oils generally dissolve and evaporate with the exception of condensates, which also leave behind long chained hydrocarbons and waxes that float. This is because condensates are natural products, so have a high variety of hydrocarbons ranging from light (short chains) to heavy (long chains). The persistent oils float with the exception of LFO and the very heavy fuel and bunker oils. LFO acts much like condensates; it partially dissolves and evaporates leaving the remaining longer chain hydrocarbons floating. The very heavy fuel and bunker oils have a high SG causing them to sink in open water. Figure 3.1 Oil persistence

Oil Class Oil Class Oil Class Oil Class Oil Class I II III IV V Persistence (days) 1 2 5 14 30 Half-Life (days) 0.17 0.33 0.83 2.33 5 Percentage Remaining (%) Number of Days after Spill Occurs 100.00 0.01 0.01 0.01 0.01 0.01 50.00 0.17 0.33 0.83 2.33 5.00 25.00 0.33 0.67 1.67 4.67 10.00 12.50 0.50 1.00 2.50 7.00 15.00 6.25 0.67 1.33 3.33 9.33 20.00 3.13 0.83 1.67 4.17 11.67 25.00 1.56 1.00 2.00 5.00 14.00 30.00

The rate of decay is calculated using a formula derived from a traditional half-life decay equation. General sea temperature is accounted for by proportionally altering the decay depending on the water regions of New Zealand (Atlas, 1981). Consideration of differing temperature was a new development for MOSRA15. This development is important as the speed at which oil decays has an effect on the time the oil can cause issues and how far it can travel.

Once the calculated volume of oil has dropped to 0.1 tons (equivalent to the fuel tank of a large road vehicle), it is considered to be non-existent in the area of open water.

4.1 Fate

MOSRA15 assumes dissolved oil will move with the currents, while floating oil is assumed to move under the influence of both current and wind.

4.2 Toxicity

MOSRA15 assumes dissolving oils will affect the water column and be generally toxic to marine life. Floating oils are assumed not to materially affect the water column but can smother marine life. This was accounted for in the environmental assessment.

4.3 Persistence

The persistence of oil affects the decay rate after spillage. The model makes transport assumptions based upon the type of oil spilt. Figure 3.1 illustrates this decay. A broad allowance is made for water temperature (three bands of water temperature being assumed). Persistence, together with volume spilt, are the dominant factors in determining the extent of a spill.

MOSRA15 Appendix

Appendix C Wind, current, and temperature

This appendix describes how wind, current and temperature are accounted for in the MOSRA model and presents example images of wind and current roses.

Page C1 Navigatus Consulting for Maritime New Zealand

1 Introduction

Both the wind and currents in the open water around New Zealand contribute to the dispersion of an oil spill. Data were collected from Climate Explorer (NIWA, 2015), the New Zealand Tidal Streams Atlas (Hydrographic Office RNZN, 1993), and from an article on oceanic circulation and hydrology around New Zealand (Heath, 1973), which represents the typical distribution of wind or current speed and direction.

For the MOSRA analysis, the open water around New Zealand was allocated into regions representing similar wind or current patterns that were represented by ether a wind or current rose showing the velocity and probability at each of the 16 points of the compass.

The velocity of oil movement is determined from the following proportions of wind and current velocities: V Current x 0.03 V Wind. The velocity of oil was calculated from all the possible combinations of wind and current vectors to produce a probability for the different velocities in all 16 compass directions for each wind and current region.

These velocities and probabilities are used in conjunction with the ‘oil persistence’ to determine the ‘oil movement’ profile.

3 Wind and current rose

The following wind and current roses were used in the model in conjunction with other factors to determine the movement of oil. When combined, the oil velocity is the velocity of current plus 3% the velocity of the wind.

3.1 Wind rose

The wind roses shown below display the recorded wind patterns for each wind region. They show a distribution of both speed and frequency for the wind in 16 directions. The wind roses were constructed from data from the NIWA Climate Explorer database, which has wind roses from points the length of the country.

3.2 Current Rose

Ocean currents around New Zealand have been shown in a similar way to the wind. Each current affects 3 bearing directions, for example, for Current Region 1, 50% of the current is in the East direction, with 25% in each of the East- Northeast and East- Southeast Directions. The symbol points in the direction of the main current. The speed information has been sourced from The New Zealand Tidal Stream Atlas (Hydrographic Office RNZN, 1993).The directions have been obtained from Heath (1973). Tidal currents have been ignored as they have a negating effect over time.

2 Species Consequence Ratings

New Zealand is home to a large number of species, a high proportion of which are endemic and threatened, that have value for ecological, social and economic reasons. The species consequence rating captured the single species in a shoreline cell with the highest consequence rating based on the importance of, and effect of, an oil spill on the species. Multiple threatened species occurring in one cell did not result in a higher cell rating – the ecological diversity of a site was captured in the habitats rating.

The effects of spills on animals and plants are widely described in scientific literature and are summarised on Maritime New Zealand’s website (Maritime New Zealand, 2015). These effects include:

 Initial oiling  Internal damage from oil ingestion  Toxic effects  Decreased fertility  Disturbance of ecosystems

Heavy oiling can have a major impact on animals and plants, although recovery (at a population level) usually begins rapidly following removal of the heavy oiling. As knowledge on the effects of oil spills on species has not changed significantly, this assessment relied on the consideration of effects used in MOSRA10 (Navigatus Consulting, 2010). There are few instances of major spills of dissolving oils so effects on animals and plants are less well known. For vertebrates, the effects of dissolving oils were assessed as being one step lower. For invertebrates, the effects were assessed as being one step higher, as dissolving oil can have a major impact on invertebrates, particularly molluscs (Michel, Csulak, French, & Sperduto, 1997; Moore, 2006). Table 2.1 includes further detail on anticipated effects for different species types.

MOSRA15 considered animals and plants at a species level. Consequently, the higher the threat ranking of a species, the higher the consequence ranking. Only threatened species were considered (see Figure 2.1, modified from (Department of Conservation, 2015a)). Due to the large number of threatened species in New Zealand, even ‘At Risk - Declining’ species would have a consequence rating of Very Low or Low, so were excluded from the assessment. This does not negate the animal welfare effect of an oil spill on even one animal, regardless of whether it is threatened. MOSRA15 also excluded species for which reliable distribution information could not be sourced (for instance, some subspecies, and some threatened invertebrates).

Page D6

Appendix D - Environmental value and impact

Figure 2.1 New Zealand Threat Classification System Categories

The rating scale was very similar to that used in MOSRA10. This is because the effects on species have not changed, and the data sources used are in large part the same. Some minor modifications were made to the scale to improve clarity and consistency in the rating. There was some movement in the output due to reclassifications of threat rankings of many species (particularly birds and invertebrates) since MOSRA10 was undertaken.

The ratings for dissolving oil, introduced in MOSRA15, mirror those for floating oils with an adjustment either one step up the scale (for invertebrates) or one step down the scale (for all other animals).

The following table summarises the values and main factors considered in setting the consequence ratings for species. The main sources of distribution data are the National Aquatic Biodiversity System (NABIS) (Ministry for Primary Industries, 2014) for all species, as well as the Atlas of Bird Distribution in New Zealand for birds (Robertson, Hyvonen, Fraser, & Pickard, 2007).

Table 2.1 Species environmental consequence ratings

Value Measure Floating Dissolving Main factors considered in assessment Birds Breeding spot (Nationally Species considered: Approximately 38 threatened birds are considered. 5 4 Critical) Distribution and threat ranking data sourced from (Ministry for Primary Known habitat (Nationally Industries, 2014; Robertson et al., 2007; Te Papa, Ornithological Society 4 3 Critical) of New Zealand, & Department of Conservation, 2014). Breeding spot (Nationally Effect: When birds are oiled, their feathers lose the ability to trap air and 4 3 Endangered) repel water. As a result, they can no longer maintain body temperature and Known habitat (Nationally become hypothermic. The birds do not float well and their swimming and 3 2 Endangered) foraging ability decreases and they often cannot fly. Ingesting and/or Breeding spot (Nationally absorption of the oil is highly toxic. Badly oiled birds will usually die and 3 2 Vulnerable) recovery of the population varies. MOSRA15 considered the effect on all Known habitat (Nationally birds to be similar, notwithstanding different feeding behaviours (waders, Vulnerable) 2 1 seabirds, etc.). Dissolving oil was considered to have less impact than floating oil. Importance: Bird species with a higher threat ranking were considered more important (i.e. Nationally Critical birds considered more important than Nationally Endangered). Breeding spots were considered more important than the birds’ normal range. For birds that inhabit 5+ consecutive cells, only breeding spots were considered. Mammals ‘Hot spot’/breeding Species considered: Maui’s dolphin, New Zealand Sea Lion, and colony (Nationally 5 4 Hector’s dolphin. Distribution and threat ranking data sourced from (Baker

Critical) et al., 2010; Ministry for Primary Industries, 2014). ‘Hot spot’/breeding Effect: There is some evidence of population decline in whales and colony (Nationally 4 3 dolphins following an oil spill – individuals are at risk when surfacing and Endangered) feeding. Oil has been linked to cancers in some species of marine mammals. MOSRA15 considered the effect on all mammals to be the

Value Indicator Normal range (Nationally 3 2 Critical) same. Dissolving oil was considered to have less impact than floating oil. Normal range (Nationally Importance: Due to the widespread distribution of marine mammals, only Endangered) 2 1 ‘hotspots’ and breeding colonies are considered. The higher the threat ranking, the more important it is considered (Nationally Critical Maui’s

dolphin and New Zealand Sea Lion were considered more important than Nationally Endangered Hectors Dolphin). Invertebrates Full range (Nationally Species considered: Four threatened invertebrates are considered the 3 4 Critical) species evaluation and are distributed throughout New Zealand (Freeman Full range (Nationally et al., 2013; Ministry for Primary Industries, 2014). 2 3 Endangered) Effect: Some invertebrates are likely to suffer high casualties from heavy Full range (Nationally oiling (e.g. molluscs, crustaceans), while others can continue to live in the 1 2 Vulnerable) presence of some oil (e.g. bivalves). Dissolving oils are likely to have a greater impact on the invertebrates considered in this analysis than floating oils. There is less information available on the invertebrate species considered than for other species. Due to the uncertainty around effect, invertebrates were rated mainly based on their threat ranking, with dissolving oils rated one step higher than floating oils. Importance: The higher the threat ranking, the more important it is considered. Only full ranges for invertebrates were available so invertebrates were rated lower than other species that had hotspots, breeding spots or normal ranges.

3 Habitats Consequence Ratings

Habitats are defined here as protected areas1. Habitats were included in the assessment as they capture a number of values that may not be otherwise captured:

 Areas of ecological importance (e.g. a large assemblage of species or high density of animals or plants)  Areas protected for a special reason (e.g. to protect the habitat of a species or for their international uniqueness)  Reserves (for conservation, social or science purposes)

Habitats helped to capture the importance of conservation efforts and the unique, distinctive or beautiful environmental values in particular areas, and the natural state of areas. The effect on habitats depended on the particular factors within an area of value, however no significant long term effects were anticipated for any of the habitats considered. All major reserve types and protected areas were considered, including all marine protected areas, coastal protected areas, and areas on New Zealand’s tentative World Heritage list.

The rating scale underwent minor adjustments to improve clarity and consistency in the rating. For instance, marine parks were given a slightly lower rating than previously as marine parks have less protection in place than other marine reserves and protected areas.

The table below summarises the values and main factors considered in setting the consequence ratings for habitats. While the specific impacts of floating oil will be different to dissolving oil, the overall impact was assessed to be similar, resulting in the same rating for each oil type.

Table 2.2 Habitats consequence ratings

1 Mangroves and Seagrass beds were also considered but were found not to drive any of the cell ratings (due to other species and habitats present in these cells), so they were not formally included in the analysis.

4 Social, Amenity, and Recreation Consequence Ratings

For measuring social, amenity and recreational values, MOSRA15 drew from the methodology used in the report Mapping the Values of New Zealand’s Coastal Waters (Allen et al., 2009). This was also used in MOSRA10. Social values are subjective and emergent so mapping them accurately at a national level is difficult.

There is higher uncertainty in social, amenity and recreation than in some other value categories (such as species and habitats). This is because the data used is more subjective. For instance, the data sources singling out particularly important dive sites, must-dos, and top beaches are all necessarily subjective. The overall effect of this subjectivity, and therefore uncertainty, on the MOSRA15 outputs is reduced due to the relatively low ratings for effect on most social, amenity and recreation value indicators.

New Zealand’s entire shoreline is considered socially important at a local level. While an oil spill would be inconvenient and distressing, it would be unlikely to have lasting impacts on social value indicators. For those reasons, most consequence ratings for social value indicators were rated relatively low.

All major types of social, amenity and recreation activities undertaken on New Zealand’s shoreline and shoreline waters were considered. These were boating, diving, recreational fishing, and general beach usage. Shellfish gathering was considered under Culture and Heritage.

The rating scale underwent some minor adjustments to improve clarity and consistency in the rating.

Table 4.1 summarises the values and main factors considered in setting the consequence ratings for social, amenity and recreation.

All are common except the few top NZ sailing spots (New Zealand Tourism, 2014b). Diving Diving site 1 2 Effect: For floating oil, diving is hindered during event and containment Notable dive sites 3 4 operations but effect is relatively minor and short term.

5 Culture and Heritage Consequence Ratings

The Crown has a duty to actively protect Māori rights and interests under Te Tirīti o Waitangi 2 , which is a founding document of Government in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Consequently, integrating Māori cultural values into this national assessment is necessary but is also potentially fraught due to the issues outlined below.

Generally, the importance of a cultural value is determined by the groups involved in that locale. Groups in different locales may rate similar features differently and consequently there is no nationally consistent rating of cultural values. Additionally, some sites of cultural importance may not be disclosed before an oil spill for fear of disturbance.

Cultural impact assessments regarding the Rena oil spill (prepared by local groups) give some indication of relevant cultural values. All assessments refer to:

 Taio (environment)  Tikanga (customs and traditions)  Kaimoana (seafood), and  Mana (prestige)

A majority of the assessments also refer to:

 Kaitiaki/Kaitiakitanga (guardianship)  Mauri (life force)  Rangatiratanga (chieftainship) 3  Specific shoreline features in the locality

These cultural values have been used to help identify the following features of the shoreline to use as proxies for cultural value, given the lack of a nationally consistent data sources.

Taiapure, Mātaitai: The Crown affords these important tools to Māori in recognition of requirements under Te Tirīti o Waitangi and to acknowledge that Māori, as tangata whenua, are entitled to have rangatiratanga over their fisheries. Taiapure, translated literally as "a coastal patch" is an area of special significance to local iwi4 or hapū5, either as a source for kaimoana6 or for spiritual reasons. Mātaitai are similar but are the result of reallocation of resources under the Quota Management System. The Ministry for Primary Industries NABIS service identifies these areas.

Kaimoana: This assessment used a report that maps the values of coastal waters (Allen et al., 2009) to identify kaimoana gathering areas (locations identified by shellfish gathering areas and shellfish water quality monitoring locations). While every part of the New Zealand shoreline has the potential for kaimoana collection, this method allowed only the most heavily used shoreline areas to be identified and indicated as important at a national (rather than local) level.

Appendix D - Environmental value and impact

Other Locations: Cape Reinga, nearby Spirits Bay, and the Treaty Grounds at Waitangi are identified as being of recognised national cultural value due to their spiritual and historical significance.

The other values (e.g. species, habitats) mapped in this assessment were attributed a consequence rating based on the significance of the value and the likely effect of an oil spill. That process could not be applied to Māori cultural values because both the intrinsic value and the impact of an oil spill on such values are for local people to decide. Consequently, all proxies for Māori cultural values were given a rating of “High” to allow them to be considered in the assessment without making assumptions about the relative importance of one cultural value compared to another.

Thus, the proxies for Māori cultural values influenced the overall assessment of which parts of the shoreline were most sensitive to oil spills. In turn, this will influence the allocation of Oil Spill Pollution Levies (e.g. between commercial shipping, commercial fishing etc.). The total amount of levies is set by other processes. Bringing Māori cultural values into this assessment will ensure those activities that have higher potential consequence for Māori cultural values will pay a greater share of the levy.

This assessment plays no part in the tactical response. Maritime New Zealand is committed to working closely with Māori on matters such as marine oil spills by: working with regional councils to ensure that iwi are consulted on contingency planning and response through regional marine oil spill contingency plans; Involving, as appropriate, iwi authorities and iwi in oil spill responses; and taking steps to address Māori interests identified through these processes.7

The table below summarises the values and main factors considered in setting the consequence ratings for culture and heritage. The proxies for Māori cultural values were given high ratings so they could be considered without making assumptions about the relative importance of one compared to another.

6 Economic Consequence Ratings

MOSRA15 considered those economic features found to be significant in the MOSRA10 analysis:

 Aquaculture  Ports  Fisheries  Tourism Recreation and biodiversity economic losses were assumed to be covered under species and habitat ratings. Cleaning and restoration costs were not considered as the Oil Pollution Levy already provides for them.

The highest rating is for a cell loss is 81 million (approximately 0.036% of New Zealand’s nominal GDP). Table 6.1 shows the economic consequence scale for all effects.

Table 6.1 Economic consequence scale

Value Measure Floating / Dissolving All ratings Rank (Scale) Estimated economic loss of $81M + 5 (Very High) Estimated economic loss of $27M - $81M 4 (High) Estimated economic loss of $9M - $27M 3 (Medium) Estimated economic loss of $3M - $9M 2 (Low) Estimated economic loss of < $3M 1 (Very Low)

The methodology used to estimate an approximate economic loss in each cell was determined by the data available. The approach for each value type is outlined in the following subsections.

There was a change in the scale of economic effects to align with scale used in risk calculations. In MOSRA15, the highest rating was an estimated economic loss over $81 million, while in MOSRA10 it was an estimated economic loss over $100 million.

Appendix D - Environmental value and impact

6.1 Aquaculture and spat collection

1.1.1.1 Aquaculture Oil spills can have a severe impact on aquaculture (IPIECA, 2000). Dissolved oils were expected to have a greater effect on aquaculture, as mussels and oysters are filter feeders and salmon accumulate petroleum hydrocarbons due to their high fat content (ITOPF, 2010). Dissolved oils are also more likely enter the water column to reach oysters, mussels and salmon (Lawrence & Hemingway, 2003). The analysis assumed there would be a loss of 24 months revenue for all aquaculture activities for dissolving oils, and 6 months for floating oils. An average output multiplier of 1.8 was used for all aquaculture activities (Enveco Ltd, 2010; Irvine, Robinson, & Carboni, 2007; Murray & McDonald, 2010; Wyatt, 2011). The assumed amount lost would be due to direct loss of crop, or because of concerns about tainting delaying harvesting or resulting in the dumping of crop, or the need for additional processing of crop.

The tables below show how the economic amount associated with aquaculture industries in New Zealand were calculated.

Table 6.2 Economic amount associated with aquaculture industries in New Zealand for floating and dissolving oils

1.1.1.2 Spat collection Both floating and dissolving oils are likely to have an impact on mussel spat as it is often located in shallow or intertidal waters (A C Alfaro, Jeffs, Gardner, Breen, & Wilkin, 2011). The mussel industry is highly dependent on wild caught spat (over 80% of mussel spat is wild caught) (Andrea C. Alfaro, 2001).

All spat in a cell area were assumed lost and the approximate proportion of the mussel amount (see Table 6.4) was assumed to be lost (one year’s production).

6.2 Ports

The majority of the economic impact of an oil spill at a port arises from commercial cargo delays, with loss of cruise ship passenger expenditure and wage expenses making up a much smaller amount. The Auckland port costs have been used to estimate a cost per million (by value of goods shipped) (Covec, 2008; Market Economics Limited, 2013; Ministry of Transport, n.d.; New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, n.d.). The breakdown of losses assumed for floating oil is outlined in Table 6.5 – these carried through from the MOSRA10 analysis (Navigatus Consulting, 2010).

This Auckland figure was used to estimate the economic loss for other ports, based on nominal value of goods shipped at each port. This approach assumes numbers of cruise ships, passenger and crew expenditure and wages at other ports occurs in the same proportion to the value of goods shipped as at Auckland. The tables below show how the Auckland figure, and other port figures, were calculated. The analysis for dissolving oil did 13 not find the effect of dissolving oil on any port to be above Very Low .

6.3 Fisheries

MOSRA15 considered the following fisheries:

 Paua  Oysters  Cockles  Rock lobsters  Snapper As with aquaculture, cockles have an impact factor of 2 (i.e. 2 years) for dissolving oils (Minstry for Primary Industries, 2002). Paua, lobsters, oysters and snapper have a longer impact factor of 4 (Statistics New Zealand, 2003; Walsh et al., 2011). All fisheries have an impact factor of 0.5 for floating oil. The table below shows an example of how the economic amount of a fishery was calculated for a cell.

6.4 Tourism

The assessment for tourism impacts uses the same methodology and data as MOSRA10, as this is still the most recent and reliable data available at the detail required for the analysis (Department of Conservation, 2005, 2006b; Navigatus Consulting, 2010).

7 Open water consequence

The assessment for environmental consequence in the open sea found that the only significant resources were species and habitats. This was because other resources, such as economic effects from fishing, were thought to have only minor effects due to the wide distribution of the fishery or other resource.

Table 7.1 below shows the environmental consequence ratings for resources in the sea cells. Table 7.2 modifies these ratings based on how many cells a value measure covers. This adjusts the score for how great the impact will be. The concept was that the potential long-term consequence on a species or habitat depends to an extent on whether it is concentrated or widely dispersed.

8 Additional results

Some of the environmental results are presented in the main body of the report. The following results provide additional insight into the environmental consequence outputs. Comprehensive results for shoreline cells are provided in Appendix E.

The figures below show the overall ratings for each value category, results for floating oil are shown on the top row, and for dissolving oil on the bottom row. For floating oil, species had the highest proportion of very high ratings, while social, amenity and recreation values have ratings higher than moderate. For dissolving oil, species had lower ratings, while economic had higher ratings when compared to floating oils.

8.1 Overall environmental consequence ratings and comparison to MOSRA10

Given the impact of floating and dissolving oils was a new feature for MOSRA; a revised environmental valuation methodology was required. As a result, the profile of ratings across cells in MOSRA15 differed somewhat from that seen in MOSRA10. The difference is shown in Figure 8.3. The key difference is that a higher proportion of cells were rated ‘High’.

2. Introduction

The following graphs have been produced for a selection of shoreline cells that were determined to be of ‘high risk’. These cells cover six areas around the New Zealand shoreline. The location and associated data can be inspected by selecting each cell on the interactive website.

For each selected ‘high risk’ shoreline cell a selection of relevant vessel types are displayed. The two types of graphs shown in each case are:

 Probability Oil is Present in Cell for Vessel Type The first graph for each selected shoreline cell shows the probability of each class of oil being present in that shoreline area caused by a spill from that vessel type. The y axis shows the probability of oil being present in the area for a spill greater than (or equal to) the spill size indicated on the x axis. This gives the graph its distinctive shape of decreasing probabilities of a given volume or greater of oil being present in the shoreline area with increasing spill sizes.

 Expected Oil – Time Weighted Volume per year for Vessel Type The second graph for each selected shoreline cells shows the expected oil in the shoreline cell from a spill involving the highlighted vessel type. ‘Expected oil’ is a time-weighted measure for the volume of oil predicted in the selected shoreline area (in units of per year), measured in tonnes. The y axis shows the expected oil in that area at each spill size range indicated on the x axis. The total amount of oil in the shoreline cell in terms of volume is weighted to spills of greater sizes occurring from the indicted vessel type.
