Recherche sur le pétrole, le gaz et autres sources d'énergie extracôtières

Au sujet du CRPGEE

Le Centre de recherche sur le pétrole, le gaz et autres sources d’énergie extracôtières (CRPGEE) est situé dans l’Institut océanographique de Bedford (IOB) à Dartmouth, en Nouvelle Écosse. Même si la plupart des travaux du CRPGEE sont menés à l’IOB, l’équipe se déplace aussi dans d’autres régions du Canada et des États Unis pour travailler avec des partenaires de recherche et pour participer à des ateliers, à des conférences et à des études de recherche.

Créé en 2002, le CRPGEE compte des membres issus de divers groupes ayant de l’expertise dans le devenir et le comportement des déversements d’hydrocarbures dans les environnements aquatiques. Dans le cadre du Plan de protection des océans (PPO) du gouvernement du Canada et du Programme de système de sécurité de classe mondiale pour les navires-citernes, le CRPGEE répond aux préoccupations sur les risques possibles en fournissant des avis et des renseignements scientifiques sur le comportement des déversements d’hydrocarbures dans un vaste éventail de conditions environnementales et océanographiques, ainsi que sur l’efficacité de certaines méthodes d’intervention. Grâce à sa recherche, le CRPGEE peut aider à améliorer les mesures prises par le Canada lors de déversements d’hydrocarbures.

Dans le cadre de ces programmes, les principaux domaines de recherche du CRPGEE sont les suivants :

Les activités, expériences et analyses qui contribuent à ces grands projets sont notamment les suivantes :

  • Analyses détaillées de la chimie et de la microbiologie des hydrocarbures en laboratoire, expériences avec les cuves à houle et les citernes antiroulis, et programmes de terrain.
  • Surveillance et suivi in situ du pétrole pour modéliser sa dispersion dans l’eau.
  • Étude de l’atmosphérisation du pétrole pour comprendre sa persistance et sa dégradation dans l’environnement.
  • Étude des interactions entre les microbes et le pétrole en réponse aux déversements.

L’équipe du CRPGEE participe à de nombreux projets de recherche collaborative avec des ministères gouvernementaux, des établissements d’enseignement postsecondaires, des entreprises du secteur privé et des organisations internationales.
