Testing Procedures

The end result will model the transportation of captured well oil to a refinery or any other containment facility. In order to test the effectiveness of the system, the amount of the oil-like substance will be measured before and after the transportation stage. The amount of "oil" lost will show how bad the system is, since the purpose of the project is to transport the oil-like substance without adding more to the environment. In order to document the results accurately multiple videos should be taken from different angles during the testing.

Sample questionnaire for testing:
  1. Was more "oil" added to the water during transportation?
  2. Did the transportation stage run smoothly?
  3. How convenient is the method of transportation chosen to transport the oil-like substance?
  4. Is there a simpler way to transport the substance?
