The staffs of the ship oil spill emergency equipment warehouse in the Wuhan section of the Hanjiang
River in the Duoluokou Port Area of Wuhan Port were responsible for this drill.
The accident was simulated an oil spill accident caused by a collision between an anchored oil tanker
in the waters of the Hanjiang River and a passing ship. The person in charge of the oil spill emergency
equipment warehouse issued an exercise instruction. The staffs quickly activated the truck cranes,
emergency trailers, forklifts and other transportation tools. The staffs began to assemble the oil booms
at the dock barge site, and used the truck crane to move the oil booms, oil skimmers, unloading pump,
and oil absorbent pads to the relevant oil spill emergency response vessel.
Twenty minutes later, an oil boom deployment tugboat, an oil pollution recovery vessel, a professional
cleaning vessel and an emergency force of more than 20 people rushed to the waters where the
incident occurred.
After the "Wudi Haifang Pollution No. 01" ship arrived in the waters of the accident vessel, the oil
booms were deployed on the downwind side of the tanker. Subsequently, the "Wudi Haifang
Pollution No. 02" professional oil pollution recovery vessel entered the site to carry out surface
oil recovery.
