Slop oil disposal

At the Port of Thyboron, we make it easy for vessels to dispose of slop oil.

Containers for the safe disposal of slop oil are available at the port. On quays like Sperlingkaj, containers are standing ready at the quayside.

We are happy to collect the slop oil using our Solus extraction system if you are unable to pump it into a tank yourself.

Contact the Port of Thyboron’s maritime department if you wish to dispose of slop oil when you arrive at port. We will make sure tanks are ready on the quay on arrival, if you can pump the oil ashore yourself. We are also happy to bring our Solus tank system if you want us to extract the slop oil.

The Port of Thyboron receives more than 500 m3 of slop oil from ships calling at the port each year. The slop oil is collected from the port by a company approved to transport and receive waste oil for refining and recycling.
