Mechanical Sludge Removal
Over the past 14 years, Willacy Oil Services manufacturing division has designed and built a range of hydraulically driven sludge removal equipment. Using feedback from the contracting division, the systems have been modified and updated.
The emphasis remains on safety by minimising/eliminating man-entry into confined spaces.
The standard system comprises of a robotic or manually driven hydrodozer, a range of purpose built pumping equipment and power packs.
Willacy tailor solutions to customers specific requirements adapting standard equipment to solve difficult problems, such as low level pipetrack cleaning.
The standard hydrodozer can be converted into a dredger for use online in pits and API Separator bays, see online sludge removal section.
