Unlocking Insights: Forensic Whole Oil Analysis for Spills, Leaks, and More
Join our expert-led webinar to explore the critical role of Whole Oil Analysis in forensic investigations. Whether you are dealing with spills, leaks, explosions, or emissions, understanding the intricacies of oil composition and product identification is essential for accurate forensic outcomes and subsequent tiered analysis. This session will provide insight into the various ASTM/EPA methods, how they need to be adapted for different matrices, and the tiered approach to effective oil characterization.
You will learn how historical and current data play a key role in interpreting oil samples and gain knowledge of the technical expertise required for method selection, modification, and accurate interpretation.
