Product Overview
The Ship Oil Pollution Emergency Plan (SOPEP) requires any ship with a gross tonnage of 400 tonnes or over, or any oil tanker with a gross tonnage of 150 tonnes or over, to have an oil prevention plan onboard as per the guidelines of the International Maritime Agency. The primary objective of this is to stop or minimize oil outflow in the event of damage to the ship or operational spills.
The 7 Barrel Spill Kit is a large spill kit with a 1,100 litre absorbent capacity that meets the Marpol Convention standards. Suitable for use on cargo vessels and oil tankers, this kit includes oil-only absorbents for the recovery of 1,100 litres of oil and large waste bags for the storage of up to 2,000 litres of recovered oil.
