heal.abstract	In this paper we propose an integrated approach for tactical decision making in oil spill response based on information on the oil fate. The optimization problem is sequentially coupled with a dynamic mathematical model that provides estimates of the oil spill fate at the contact time of the spill with the response means. The model consists of a set of differential and algebraic equations that describe the spill dynamics as these are affected by spreading and weathering. To solve the tactical problem, an integer optimization problem is formulated where the objective is to minimize the total costs considering the response system costs and the resulting reduction in the spill damage. Appropriate constraints on equipment operability and capacity, response time, supply and mother vessel use are set. The use of the methodology is illustrated via its application in a realistic case where the response means considered is the EU-MOP system (Elimination Units for Marine Oil Pollution).	en
