Temporary storage systems - UNIBAG

UNIBAG – EMERGENCY RESPONSE STORAGE SYSTEMS
The UNIBAG is a floating towable storage container that can be deployed quickly, facilitating the effective use of oil skimmers and recovery vessels.


Emergency offloading


Portable, flexible and lightweight, the
UNIBAG can be used as an emergency storage system in off-loading operations after a collision or grounding.

The UNIBAG is available in capacities
of 5 to 1,000 m

SKIMMING OPERATIONS

To increase the effectiveness of a clean-up operation, the presence of sufficient storage equipment will greatly maximize the amount of oil collected in the critical first hours of the skimming operation.


Enviro Teams Unibag is designed to be used to increase the storage capacity of today's skimmers and to transport the recovered oil to safe storage either onshore or to other vessels.

The Unibag can be manually developed and dragged into the sea by a small boat, or deployed from a crane or jetty. Once deployed, it is ready to be filled. During filling, the Unibag can be towed along side a ship or streamed behind, depending on the operational requirement.

Filling during skimming operation


PORT, HARBOUR AND SHORELINE OPERATIONS
Unfortunately many oil spills create a shoreline, or near shore pollution, often despite efforts to combat the pollution while at sea, still this pollution has to be contained and recovered.


Discharging of Unibag

A small Unibag will provide even small tugs or boats with storage capacity to operate effectively. The Unibag`s very shallow draft makes it an ideal tool in confined areas such as estuaries, rivers, mud flats and salt marshes etc.

If access to a shoreline is not possible from the seaside, a Unibag can be laid on a flat ground and filled to its maximum capacity.
