Waste Management
Core Activities / Waste Management
Responsible Treatment and Recovery
We integrate process engineering and environmental stewardship to treat, recover, and upgrade challenging oil and petrochemical waste streams. Our approach is designed to reduce disposal burden, improve compliance outcomes, and convert complex residues into safer, usable, and market-aligned outputs.
• Multiple distillation units with demetallization, desalination, dehydration, and extraction capability
• Industrial wastewater treatment systems designed to meet regulatory and ESG requirements
• Ability to process diverse raw materials and off-spec streams into marketable products
• Resource-efficient operations driven by in-house innovation and continuous improvement
- Oil Sludge and Slops Treatment and Recovery
- Oil-Based Mud (OBM) Treatment and Recovery
- Onshore Spills Recovery
- Oil Spills Remediation

Oil Sludge and Slops Treatment and Recovery
Some of the R&D core activities are highlighted below:
- Design basis development
- Process Flow Optimization
- Efficiency Optimization
- Start-up support
- Pilot plant studies & technology transfer

Oil-Based Mud Treatment and Recovery
We provide specialized treatment and recovery solutions for oil-based mud waste streams, targeting efficient separation of oil, solids, and residual contaminants. Our process-driven approach helps operators reduce disposal cost, recover usable base oil where feasible, and maintain strict handling discipline for high-risk drilling waste.
With controlled recovery workflows and strong HSE alignment, we support field and onshore operations with reliable waste-to-value outcomes that protect both assets and environmental commitments.
- OBM waste handling and recovery routing
- Oil recovery and solids management
- Treatment designed for demanding upstream waste profiles

Onshore Spills Recovery
PetroShell supports onshore spill recovery through structured, safety-first response and recovery workflows. We assist in the containment, collection, and treatment of hydrocarbon releases to reduce environmental impact and restore site conditions efficiently.
From initial assessment to recovery logistics and treatment integration, our approach emphasizes speed, compliance, and disciplined execution—helping operators minimize downtime while meeting regulatory and ESG expectations.
- Site assessment and recovery planning
- Containment support and hydrocarbon recovery pathways
- Alignment with facility treatment capabilities for final processing

Onshore Spills Remediation
PetroShell delivers structured oil spill remediation support designed to minimize environmental impact and accelerate safe site restoration. Our remediation approach combines field coordination with recovery-ready treatment pathways, ensuring that collected hydrocarbons and contaminated materials are managed responsibly and efficiently.
Through disciplined HSE execution and adaptable response workflows, we support operators in meeting regulatory obligations while protecting operational reputation and ESG commitments across sensitive onshore environments.
- Remediation planning aligned with regulatory and site requirements
- Coordinated recovery, segregation, and safe waste routing
- Integration with in-house treatment and recovery capabilities where applicable
