Technical & Environmental  Care Services

Introduction

Although there is a general consensus of opinion within the oil industry that admixtures (Crossovers) should not occur, especially with regard to petroleum spirit deliveries to retail filling stations, incidents do happen and swift action is required to rectify what could have dangerous and costly repercussions. 

Recovering admixtures or transferring products within the STW Domestic delivery network of operations is generally more prevalent although none the less serious than its larger retail and commercial bulk fuels delivery counterpart.

Indeed, many of the problems associated with domestic fuels deliveries, have a significantly more serious impact and damaging effect on the environment.

Apex Support operate a 24 hour call out service predominantly for its oil industry clients, with regard to motor spirit or distillate uplifts, or tank transfers at petrol filling stations and other retail, commercial, and domestic premises.

This service is augmented by a comprehensive spillage clean up and property maintenance service.
