The Safety and Environmental staff of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) on Thursday afternoon, acted swiftly to stop an oil leakage on one of its underneath pipe lines within the plant.The workers isolated the affected line buried underground and used sand bags to contain the oil to prevent further spillage into a nearby gutter, Mrs Aba Lokko, Public Affairs Manager of TOR told the GNA in Tema.She explained that part of the underground line had corroded thus giving way to the leakage, but its obscurity made it very difficult to detect until the leakage of the oil surfaced with some spilling into the gutter, which flowed into the municipal drain.Mrs Lokko said the corrosion was detected after the experts had dug the area and the engineers intervened promptly to save the situation.Concerning the oil that had spilled into the municipal drain, Mr Kingsley Kofi Ditsa, Environmental Services Manager said foams were being used to collect it for re-processing so it would not go waste.“Some of these operational hazards occur occasionally but we are able to contain it, Mr Ditsa stated.Source: NA
