OSPAR est le mécanisme par lequel quinze gouvernements des côtes et îles occidentales d’Europe, avec l'Union européenne, coopèrent pour protéger l’environnement marin de l’Atlantique du Nord-Est. Cette coopération a débuté en 1972 avec la Convention d’Oslo sur les immersions. Son champ a été étendu aux pollutions d’origine tellurique et à l’industrie pétrolière par la Convention de Paris en 1974. Enfin, ces deux conventions ont été unifiées, mises à jour et étendues par la Convention OSPAR en 1992. La nouvelle annexe sur la biodiversité et les écosystèmes a été adoptée en 1998 pour couvrir les activités humaines non-polluantes qui peuvent avoir un effet négatif sur la mer.
