Sludge & Bilge / Slops Removal

Sludge and bilge slops removal providers receive a vessel's oily engine-room residues under MARPOL Annex I — waste oil sludge from fuel and lubricating oil purification, and oily bilge water pumped from machinery space bilges — collected by road tanker or barge and taken ashore for treatment or disposal.

Providers issue a receipt recording the type and quantity of oily waste received, supporting the entries a vessel's engine crew must make in her oil record book, with reception facilities typically available at ports handling regular commercial traffic. This is oily engine-room residue specifically, distinct from the dry Annex V garbage handled by waste management providers and from the cargo and ballast tank slops generated by tank cleaning. Buyers arrange sludge and bilge removal on a schedule tied to tank capacity and the ship's operating cycle, comparing providers on reception availability, turnaround, and documentation. It sits within the Waste, Environmental & Tank Cleaning category group on PortProcure.
