Contribution of marine carriage in the global transport is in permanent developing. It leads to increase the
unintentional oil spills, which may induce serious disturbances in functioning of the natural marine ecosystem,
especially when it interferes with other technical activities in the marine space. That fact contributes to increase the
interest in searching of new research techniques to protect the natural ecosystem. Therefore, the main task of marine
international organisations concentrates on the effective and rapid detection of oil spill and on the possibility of
identifying oil pollutants as well as on origin of pollution.
The purpose of the study is to characterise the oil belonging to the vessel engine lubricate oils. We analyse the
stage results of investigations based on one of types of fluorescence spectroscopy, namely: synchronous spectra. To
characterise the oil, the Aqualog Horiba spectrofluorometer was applied, which allows performing precise
measurement in a short time. Based on the measured excitation-emission spectra, total synchronous fluorescence
spectra for oil were obtained using various wavelength intervals. Total synchronous fluorescence spectra of petroleum
substances allow finding wavelength interval typical for particular type of oil. This approach could allow obtaining of
complex mixtures, such as oils, more efficient description. We discuss the total synchronous fluorescence spectra for
engine oil (Marinol type) dissolved in n-hexane in various concentrations of oil as a possible tool proposed to oil type
identification. We present changes and variation of the total synchronous fluorescence spectra for oil with various oil
concentrations.
