Lamnalco places all its professional expertise at the service of ports and terminals, highly exposed to the risks of oil spills. All types of oil pollution can thus be controlled, anytime, anywhere. Thanks to the highly-experienced teams combined with hi-tech machinery, protecting the environment is a routine operation.

Qualified teams
The teams are highly-qualified in pollution control and recovery techniques used to deal with surface pollution, as well as in dealing with other pollution control measures. They have gained their experience at sea, sharing it with experienced crews and constantly improving their expertise through internal and external training.

Special equipment
With a duty to protect the environment, Lamnalco deploys the latest pollution control techniques. Thus, many of the tugs are equipped with tanks of dispersing agents, pumps, spray booms and pollution containment booms, etc.

Specialised vessels
To be able to control pollution and respond 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you have to have vessels that are available immediately, the case with all the vessels in the Lamnalco fleet.

Effective operations
We perform all manner of operations needed to control pollution effectively:

• setting up floating booms,
• spraying of dispersing agents,
• pumping out any fuel still in the tanks,
• transferring fuels and other hazardous materials to a recycling centre,
• cleaning the water surface with skimmers, followed by treatment in settling tanks,
