Bilge Water Disposal

Bilge Water Disposal

With a number of major ports, harbours and marinas located on the south coast, we have invested in a fleet of vacuum tankers and specialist vehicles to accommodate the demand for safe bilge water disposal.

Our operatives are experts in removing marine oil and various waste from dealing with sludge, silt and oily waters from interceptors.

Bilge water is a mixture of fresh water, seawater, oil, sludge, chemicals and other fluids that collect in bilge wells on ships or boats.

We recognise that all businesses have a role to play in preventing pollution and reducing the release of harmful emissions. Particularly, this is true of the shipping industry.

Complying with MARPOL regulations, we ensure that our customer’s duty of care is met and that bilge waters are removed safely and transported to a licensed treatment facility where it will be safely treated and recycled.

Efficient and Flexible Bilge Water Disposal

Removing bilge water from large ships, especially at low tide requires powerful pumps. Our combination units and vacuum tankers have the latest high performance pumps on board designed for this purpose. In addition, the tankers have the flexibility to work around limited access and can carry out work quickly.

We are licensed and accredited with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 as well as the Environment Agency. We can provide advice to ship and boat owners who produce hazardous liquid waste and understand our responsibilities for marine waste disposal, including sewage.

Furthermore, our bilge and tank cleaning services are available 24/7 across the South and London.
