The northern coastal of Oman along with the Strait of Hormuz is an incredibly important gateway since it is a key water access for the transit of oil and gas around the world. Due to its important geographical location, any oil spills in this area might have serious impacts on the world economy and energy markets in addition to the marine habitat. Considering how crucial it is to actively monitor and respond to oil leak accidents, this study was carried out expressly to investigate the likelihood of them occurring between April and May 2020. In this research study, we investigated such oil spills used SNAP (Sentinel Application Platform), a robust software tool that is frequently used in remote sensing applications. Further, satellite imagery data were made available through the Copernicus Open Access Hub, a website run by the European Space Agency (ESA). This study specifically made use of the Sentinel-1 satellite's radar imagery data, which provide high-quality and precise data for tracking oil spills.
