New Naval Ltd. services

New Naval’s experience in prevention and response operations includes the lead-role as one of the primary response entities within Greece, as a provider directly appointed by ship-owners or their insurance companies, and as a sub-contractor. For all of these operations, New Naval has been successful preventing and/or mitigating the pollution generated. New Naval maintains a network of Tier 1 bases strategically located throughout Greece and a Tier 2 base in Lavrion, intentionally located near major ports and airports. Our prevention and preparedness portfolio includes a number of related services including:

New Naval has designed and built a state-of-the-art training center in Lavrion, Greece (only 30 mins drive from the Athens International airport). The facility includes classroom and tele-conference facilities, a large test tank, a variety of OSR equipment, access to the nearby port and New Naval’s fleet of oil recovery vessels. The Center allows participants to have an immersive hands-on training experience and participate in actual equipment deployments.

In the event of an oil spill incident, especially in the first hours of a response, reliable infrastructure and support is vital. New Naval prides itself in maintaining dedicated response-ready personnel and state-of-the-art equipment that can be rapidly activated to provide primary and secondary response support in the case of an incident when a call-out is received. No incident is too small for New Naval when the environment is threatened or harm is imminent.

The STS (Ship-to-Ship) transfer of oil is a fairly common practice and the use of spill response equipment can ensure a safe operation with improved safety and insurance that if an incident does take place, it can be quickly and efficiently contained. Theories and experience have time and again proven that observance and adherence to proper procedures, given fair weather and sea conditions can result in a potentially dangerous operation to conclude safely. The process is usually undertaken within the facilities of the port. Some ports have the process as a part of their routine operations and even have set procedures laid down in their regulations, guidelines & manuals including the use and applicaiton of spill prevention equipment.

New Naval has a variety of equipment options designed to fit the needs and the budget for the operation at hand. Rental and leasing options are ideal solutions for temporary and short-term projects that may call for support or emergency response equipment. Individual equipment, pre-packed containers built for specific OSR operations and custom packages based on customer needs are available for rental and leasing. Training, equipment commissioning and support personnel are also available for any and all operational needs.
