                         Victoria-Trindade seamount ridge in the western South Atlantic 
                         along the Brazilian continental shelf and adjoining region. This 
                         is an oceanic area where the Brazil Current (BC), a southward warm 
                         and saline water large scale flow, interacts with a very complex 
                         topographic feature. After interacting with the ridge, the BC 
                         flows southwestward over the Campos oil field, the most important 
                         offshore petroleum site of the Brazilian shelf. This paper 
                         presents some preliminary results of using ScanSAR Wide data 
                         digitally processed to monitor oceanic features in the region. 
                         Speckle reduction was done using a simple averaging technique. 
                         Image registration was done using 255 control points part of the 
                         digital data stream and a third order polynomial model. The 
                         preliminary results indicate that the recorded images contain 
                         useful information about oil spills.",
