Oil can calm seas by forming a thin film on the surface of the water, which reduces surface tension and minimizes wave formation. This film dampens the energy of waves and can help to mitigate the effects of wind. Additionally, the presence of oil can disrupt the interaction between wind and water, leading to smoother sea conditions. However, this calming effect is temporary and often accompanied by significant environmental harm.
