Hydrocarbon Decontamination Services
Oil pollution from oil spills and gas releases is a recurring problem. In the event of a disaster, action must be taken very quickly and effectively to avoid the dispersion of the pollutant as much as possible. THOMSEA has become the world leader in the decontamination of hydrocarbons at sea by trawling. Its trawls, very quick to set up and versatile, are also capable of adapting to different characteristics of hydrocarbons, whether heavy or emulsified. No floating solid can resist this trawl. THOMSEA`s expertise allows it to provide its subcontractors with precise plans for the manufacture of the different parts of the trawls: inflatable parts, nets, hoops (which keep the opening of the "pocket" above and below the water). This collaboration is crucial in the search for an optimal solution. The elements are then assembled and tested by THOMSEA, with a permanent desire for improvement that makes its trawls ever more efficient.
Efficiency and speed: these are the key words for an oil spill clean-up operation. THOMSEA continues to work on more efficient methods and tools to limit the effects of these disasters.
