Environmental response in the maritime industry typically takes place when a vessel grounds or is involved in a collision or allision with another object.
- Mystery sheens or mystery spills where the source of the pollution is unknown. Samples are collected and surveys are conducted to determine the source, which may be a sunken vessel, a decommissioned harbor facility or an underground pipeline.
- Historical sunken wrecks are abundant throughout the world. World War II and other military skirmishes left hundreds of vessels at the bottom of the ocean. Drums of hazardous materials can take decades to decompose and require proper handling and disposal.
- Archeological stabilization projects we’ve been awarded include the Clotilda.
- The offshore wind industry has retained salvors to recover damaged blades and coordinate subsea recovery work and environmental cleanup.
- Environmental clean-up equipment includes containment boom, sorbent boom and pads, skimmers, lightering pumps and temporary storage equipment and capacity.
- Wildlife rehabilitation and beach cleanup equipment is deployed at near shore situations.
- Resolve Marine engineered the recovery of more than 50 billion plastic pellets in one of the worst marine ecological disasters in Sri Lankan history.
- The Munger T. Ball was an American steam tanker torpedoed by a German U-boat in 1942. Light oil sheens were reported off the coast of Key West, Florida USA for years until Resolve Marine was retained to complete a subsea cargo extraction of more than 35,000 gallons of heavy fuel oil.
