Abstract
Oil well blowout models are used to study the dispersion of hydrocarbons droplets and bubbles that are released into the marine environment. The trajectory is strongly influenced by physical, chemical and biological processes. This work is a sensitivity study, where MOHID software is used at the Campos Basin region, in which the difference of Lagrangian modeled trajectories of the oil leaks dispersion are observed as a result of parameters change. The simulations were performed considering the use of dispersants at the source of the leak and the variation on droplets diameters.
