Resumo: | This article presents an empirical analysis of the process of valuing and compensating damages resulting from oil pollution at sea. Observation of recent accidents shows that arriving at a single global estimate of the social cost of an oil spill proves difficult in most cases. The analysis builds on a historical analysis of the Amoco Cadiz case to show that three types of estima tes can be considered in practice: (i) estima tes by economists involved as experts in the process, (ii) claims by victims, and (iii) compensation eventually granted to the claimants. The main factors explaining divergence between these estimates, and their implications in terms of final payments, are considered. Factors of divergence relate to theoretical and empirical difficulties encountered in applying valuation methods and to the strategic behaviour of agents involved in the compensation process. These factors help understand why large differences in rates of success between claims logged by different agents were observed in this case.
