Common risks in ports, docks and marinas
Port operations and marinas may experience leaks of diesel, lubricants, fuels and petroleum products during refueling, loading, unloading, maintenance and vessel movement. When liquid reaches the water, the response must prioritize containment, absorption and organizing the right supplies at the risk location.
Oil and petroleum products on water
Use absorbent booms to reduce the spread of oil on water and establish the initial response perimeter.
Use white-range absorbent pads to collect oil on surfaces, floors, docks or shorelines, or during final cleanup.
Use absorbent socks for drains, channels, edges, small areas and drip points.
Use absorbent pillows at localized higher-volume points, equipment bases or confined areas.
Keep environmental spill kits in visible locations near refueling, maintenance and operating points.

Ports and docks FAQ
Which absorbent range should I use for oil on water?
For oil and petroleum products on water, the white range is the most suitable because it was developed to absorb hydrocarbons and repel water.
When should absorbent booms be used in ports and docks?
Absorbent booms are recommended when the goal is to contain the spread of oil on water, along shorelines, at docks or in marinas before cleaning with absorbent pads and other absorbents.
Can absorbent socks replace absorbent booms?
Not necessarily. Absorbent socks help with drains, channels, edges and small areas. For larger perimeters on water, absorbent booms are usually more suitable.
Does Mantas Brasil size kits for response stations?
Yes. The team can advise on environmental spill kit contents according to the city, state, type of liquid, location of use, risk and urgency of the operation.
