Intensive development of marine oil fields is characterized by significant pollution of sea environment, linked with leaks of diesel fuel and oil products during production activities on ships, or as a result of technical means accidents. To assess the potential scale of environmental impact mathematical modeling of hypothetical spills is required. The main processes of distribution and physico-chemical transformation of diesel fuel determined. The spreading of diesel fuel slicks on sea surface in case of accidental spills in storm conditions evaluated. Assessment of spatial-temporal picture of emergency development allows to select and prove a strategy for spills control during a storm wind.
