Oil Spill Detection and Monitoring
Detect and contain oil leaks and spills with the Slick Sleuth oil spill monitoring system from InterOcean. Mitigate risk, reduce costs associated with potential spills, and protect the environment.
Slick Sleuth is a sensor and alarm system used to remotely alert users to the presence or accumulation of oil as an early warning device. The sensor technology is an optical, non-contact, oil-on-water detection system designed for the soonest possible response and containment in a wide variety of applications, including inland waterways, industrial plants, coastal and offshore.
Our spill monitoring technology is designed and fabricated for deployment in rugged industrial and marine environments. The goal is to detect hydrocarbon sheen or slicks on water (or on ground/dry surfaces) to prevent oil spills in marine, industrial, and freshwater environments. In addition to real-time alerts, the detector’s outputs are commonly used to actuate valves, pumps, and skimmers, enabling automated containment in remote locations for 24/7/365 protection.
