Ground

At the Petrol Group, we understand that soil protection is essential for preserving a healthy environment.

The greatest risk to soil contamination comes from potential spills of petroleum products during storage and transportation. Therefore, we implement a comprehensive range of preventive technical and organizational measures based on legislation, best practices, and our own safety standards.

Our goal is to operate without incidents, which we achieve through:

• Regular preventive maintenance of safety-critical equipment,
• Training employees and contractors in safe fuel handling,
• Conducting legally required inspections and testing of safety devices,
• Internal audits of the safety management system and implementation of corrective measures.

In the event of spills, we carry out remediation of contaminated soil and, in more complex cases, also monitor groundwater. In recent years, in collaboration with experts, we have refined the process of remediating contaminated soil, which involves the physical, chemical, and microbiological breakdown of hydrocarbons.

The goal of remediation is to ensure that the cleaned soil can be reused as construction fill, thereby contributing to the circular economy.
