About ECOA

ECOA, a New European Association

Oil Spill and Marine pollution does not stop at national borders. Incidents, risks and response often involve shared waters, shared responsibility and cooperation between different organisations and countries.

Learn more about ECOA and how it recognises the value of national organisations and existing sector bodies. Its role is to build on those foundations by supporting a pan-European network focused on oil spill and emerging marine pollution industries.

ECOA aims to help the sector become more visible, better connected and better organised to respond to the challenges ahead.
