Number of reported maritime oil spills in New Zealand from 2008 to 2015
Maritime oil spills with any produced water discharge over 100 ppm (parts per million) are reported. The drop off in the number of spills from 2008 to 2009 was owing to the fact that in 2008 one offshore installation had a problem reducing the hydrocarbon ppm in their produced water. Rena incident is not included in 2011 figure.
