The environment pollution by dangerous and harmful substances can be caused by an incident or accident and may pose a threat requiring urgent action and critical response.

Optiras undertakes the provision of end-to-end services for the prevention and response to oil spill cases in port and shore facilities, marinas, and ships.

The long-experienced specialized technicians of Optiras along with the privately-owned oil spill response equipment and the service operation vessels guarantee the immediate, timely and highly successful handling of incidents related both to oil spill prevention and response. We undertake the provision of stand-by services and training to private and public bodies for dealing with any possible incidents. Within this context, the facility staff responsibility is only limited to the timely notification to our specialized teams, ready to undertake the smooth outcome of any incident.

Optiras undertakes projects for the restoration of marine and coastal environment from oil spill cases, management of distressed cargo, recovery of oil products from ships - tanks (pumping) and safe management of hazardous and non-hazardous waste in full compliance with international law.
