      abstract = {In the aftermath of the "Deepwater Horizon" oil spill in  the Gulf of Mexico, the need arose for experimental data on  oil and gas hydrodynamics and particle formation under  deep-sea conditions. This work presents a new High-Pressure  Test Center that allows for experimental oil spill research  under artificial deep-sea conditions. It also contains  experimental data on drop formation processes and oil drop  size distributions generated within this test center and a  modeling approach based on the turbulent energy dissipation  that has been developed to predict the droplet sizes of an  oil-and-gas jet under high pressure. About the Author Karen  Malone studied Mechanical Engineering at Hamburg University  of Technology and Luleå University of Technology,  specializing in product development. From 2013 to 2018, she  worked as research associate at the Institute of Product  Development and Mechanical Engineering Design at TUHH.  During this time, she took part in the international  research consortium C-IMAGE which investigated the  Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and its consequences in and for  the Gulf of Mexico. Since 2019, she works as process and  plant engineer in the chemical industry.},
