Elastec/ITAS skimmers used in Tananger.

90 tons oil spill consist of diesel oil mixed with water recovered at Shells Terminal in Tananger, Norway in January 2007.
A joint group of Shells special international team from UK worked together with local oil-spill operators using Elastec/ITAS skimmers showed great prefornance and the cleanup were successful.
