Oil spills can be both man-made and natural disasters. Man-made oil spills typically occur as a result of accidents during offshore drilling operations, transportation of oil by tankers, or leaks from pipelines and storage facilities. However, natural oil spills can also happen due to events like underwater volcanic eruptions or oil seepages from the ocean floor.
