In this research work oil spill detection techniques were used using Advance synthetic aperture radar images inGulf of Mexico region. As we know oil spills become bigger issue in ocean water which effect marine species and animal’slife. We know oil and sea water does not mix because oil is less dense than water and density of water depends ontemperature and salinity. Ocean water density is about 1027 kg/m3. Main objective of doing this research is to comparealgorithms to determines dark patches, bands and tracking of oil spills in given input radar images with less time consuming.This research work helps to regular monitor oil spill area and region which help agencies for further process. Aftercomparing algorithms morphological closing techniques act as good tools for oil spill detection and monitoring. Advancesynthetic aperture radar image serves as a good sensor for surveying of oil spill. In conclusion, after comparing sevenalgorithms, morphological technique serves as excellent method for detection of oil spill with low time complexity
