Safe Removal of Waste Oils by Oil Recoveries in Specialist Project

Project: Oil Refinery Dismantling and Removal

Location: Manchester

Duration: 2 weeks

 

Brief description:

Oil Recoveries were drafted in to lead on a project in Manchester involving an oil refinery which the Environment Agency had instructed to be dismantled.

 

Project Scope:

In partnership with two other specialist companies – a demolition company and industrial cleaning company Oil Recoveries took on the role of principal contractor and managed the full project from start to finish. The scope of works consisted of the dismantling and removal of a redundant oil refinery, previously used to re-refine waste oil and process it ready for resale.

The plant consisted of several types of pressure vessels, boilers, storage tanks (both plastic and steel) along with pipework. Oil Recoveries handled all the waste removal from the site, including all remaining oils and fluids which were removed from the system. In total 80,000 litres of sludges and oils were safely removed, 70% of which was able to be re-refined.

The seamless collaboration between the Oil Recoveries team and the other two partners ensured all works were completed on programme, allowing access to the site on time.
