A tanker port, a tank farm, and a long-distance pipeline are all operated by Tekoil Shipping. We place a great importance on protecting the cleanliness of land, water, and air while not compromising other assets and resources because of the qualities of the crude oil we transport. We feel that effective engagement with the relevant authorities is vital in each circumstance. Comprehensive organizational measures, as well as technical safety and control systems, help us achieve legal obligations as well as the high standards we set for the protection of people and the environment. Water is collected and drained into a separation system on the surface of the tanker dock, in the tank farm, and at pipeline pumping stations, for example. This keeps dirty water out of the system. When necessary, there are watertight surplus liquid storage compartments that can be emptied using the separation system and are regularly monitored for stray liquids.

To prevent the spread of odours from crude oil in the tank farm, modern sealing technology is installed in the floating tank roofs, which also improves fire and explosion protection. Naturally, any waste generated on our premises is collected and disposed of legally. If an accident or fault occurs despite all of our precautions (which are not listed in full below for brevity), there is further equipment and other options available. available to prevent or reduce any interference with human and environmental safety. We have coordinated and well-structured damage control as a result of a company-wide warning and emergency response management plan developed in collaboration with authorities.

Tekoil Shipping reviews corporate environmental objectives on a yearly basis and creates KPIs across all levels and operations of the organization, based on key areas for increasing environmental safety. These goals serve as the foundation for the creation of specific tasks and action plans to support the successful implementation of the Environmental Strategy, which is part of the Integrated Management System Policy, which is shared by all of our employees and used as a guide throughout all of our manufacturing facilities. These action plans are part of the Company’s devoted annual environmental programming.

The Tekoil Shipping Program for In-Process Environmental Monitoring in the Northern Part of the Caspian Sea was established in 2016, and has been operational since 2020. The Arctic receives special care. Since 2020, Tekoil Shipping, a Barents Sea offloading facility, has been regularly monitoring natural environment components in places where the onshore tank batteries and offloading terminal could have an influence.
