Dear Experts.
I need to know is it possible to do the mentioned work. If yes, what satellite/images do I need. Is there any methodology or reference which could help me?

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data has a significant capability to detect oil spill phenomena over oceans' surfaces even in the cloudy season as well. There is a wealth of resource available over the Internet to demonstrate the applicability of SAR data to detect oil spill events. Please refer to the following links:

2) https://earth.esa.int/c/document_library/get_file?folderId=233928&name=DLFE-2187.pdf

In addition to above references, there is a tutorial available at following link of European Space Agency's Learn EO! Project page to monitor marine oil spill pollution using synergistic use of Radar and optical data. Open source software and data are readily available here (user registration may be required).

after exporting you oil spill image, you can use arcgis, envi, global mapper, google earth to calculate path, area...
best regards
Dear Jibran and Ridha.
Thank you so much for your useful information.
This SAR publication might prove useful to you.
