Adler and Allan’s disaster response to battling Britain’s biggest ever spill

Over many years, Adler and Allan has built the resources and reaction skills to tackle the most challenging of situations from minor domestic oil spills to major industrial disasters. The Buncefield Oil Storage Depot explosion and fire in 2005 tested these assets to the full, providing an unprecedented challenge for our emergency spill response teams.

Before the fire was even extinguished, Adler and Allan disaster response teams were on site planning the oil clean-up and land remediation tactics that have now successfully contained much of the potential for environmental disaster.

Emergency Response Teams First Objectives

We established an onsite field-headquarters to coordinate the emergency oil spill response teams. Meanwhile, waste disposal and tank sites were rapidly identified, nominated and placed on standby.

Un-burnt fuel and other liquids were pumped and transported from the site using the Adler and Allan tanker fleet, whilst other specialist vehicles were engaged in excavating and clearing the vast area that was affected.

Working as Principal Contractor in the aftermath of the Buncefield explosion and fire was an exceptional team effort and an unrivalled demonstration of Adler and Allan disaster response capability.

Contingency Planning

Every business and organisation can experience a serious incident that can prevent it from continuing normal operations. This could be from flooding, oil spills or an energy shortage.

Adler and Allan can assist organizations with contingency planning and training including realistic exercises.

Spill services including emergency oil spill response are available on a retainer contract basis for the reassurance of guaranteed response.
