Abstract :
The results of satellite monitoring of oil pollution of the sea surface in South-Eastern Baltic are given. Vessels as main polluters of the sea surface by oil product are considered. It was shown that the reason of oil pollution of the Curonian Spit´s beaches could be an oil discharge on roads near Baltyjsk.
