AMOSC operates from 2 main centres being Geelong and Fremantle. At both locations, AMOSC can respond 24/7 to marine oil spills providing skilled and experienced people with equipment capable of containing and recovering all oil types.    AMOSC operates under AMOSPlan – this sets out the cooperative and mutual aid arrangements for all members of AMOSC and also integration by industry into the National Plan. The AMOSPlan exists in three layers: for AMOSC use only, for AMOSC member use and for the wider public dissemination.   The first two layers of the plan are highly operationally focussed and designed for AMOSC and its members to prepare and respond to marine oil spills.   The third layer discusses the industry arrangements and is available through this website.
