Description 
Summary

This project was a third stage of Supsa Terminal Monitoring program, started in 2001. For collection of investigated material were used the cutter “Asmati”, appurtenant of Supsa oil terminal. Objectives of cruise were the collection and analyze of water and sediment samples from r. Supsa, offshore zone of Oil Terminal and river delta, with purpose the evaluation of Terminal impact in marine environment. Concentration of heavy metals in sea water are determined by atomic absorption method after preliminary concentration with cosedimentation procedure.
