Abstract：There is the rationality of the existence on oil pollution accident liability limitation in the develop-ment of offshore oil. However, offshore oil development facilities do not belong to the ship, provisions of liabil-ity limitation on ship oil pollution can't be applied. Under this circumstances of determining the amount of oil spillage, we might as well take " the amount of oil spillage " as standard to liability limitation; Otherwise, "accident system" is suitable. After gulf of Mexico oil pollution accident in the U. S, Some people consider the repeal of liability limitation, but limitation of liability is still adhered, under the background of gradually im-prove in the liability limitation, we should realize the socialization relief of the highly dangerous liability by the insurance system.
