      abstract = {The demand for oil and gas has brought exploration and  production to unprecedented depths of the worlds oceans.  Currently, over 50% of the oil from the Gulf of Mexico now  comes from waters in excess of 1,500 meters (one mile)  deep, where no oil was produced just 20 years ago. The  Deepwater Horizon oil spill blowout did much to change the  perception of oil spills as coming just from tanker  accidents, train derailments, and pipeline ruptures. In  fact, beginning with the Ixtoc 1 spill off Campeche, Mexico  in 1979-1980, there have been a series of large spill  events originating at the sea bottom and creating a myriad  of new environmental and well control challenges. This  volume explores the physics, chemistry, sub-surface oil  deposition and environmental impacts of deep oil spills.  Key lessons learned from the responses to previous deep  spills, as well as unresolved scientific questions for  additional research are highlighted, all of which are  appropriate for governmental regulators, politicians,  industry decision-makers, first responders, researchers and  students wanting an incisive overview of issues surrounding  deep-water oil and gas production.},
