The extremely effective deployment of the Dutch oil spill response vessel Arca at the time of the Prestige disaster demonstrated the expertise available within the country. This expertise is not only available through the Dutch Directorate General for Public Works and Water Management, which owns the Arca, but also at other SRGH members such as Smit Salvage, AVR Industrial Services, Damen Shipyards, IHC Holland, and institutes such as TNO and WL Delft Hydraulics.
