Oil spill detection and polluter identification for offshore assets
We will monitor, detect, notify and document unintended oil spills on your behalf, including documenting point-, or source of origin. And the most important, we will document that your operation is without unintended oil spills.
The NORBIT Aptomar oil spill detection service is created to let our clients focus 100% on their core business while we take the full control of the oil spill monitoring and detection process, documenting an operation without any unintended oil spills.
Through the service, NORBIT Aptomar tailor and conduct a 24/7 monitoring and detection scheme, in accordance with the technical and operational requirements of our client. The turn key service can be customised to fit a large number of operational requirements in terms of detection volume or time, range performance or specific technologies. All delivered by trained Aptomarin operators specialised in environmental monitoring.
Since the start-up of Aptomarin in 2015, we have analysed over 30 000 potential oil spill incidents giving us a unique knowledge base
