00:00:11.410 00:00:11.420 00:00:15.019 00:00:15.029 manual and partially mechanized
00:00:17.130 00:00:17.140 technologies are widely used in the oil
00:00:19.109 00:00:19.119 and gas industry for oil tanks cleaning
00:00:23.390 00:00:23.400 significant faults of these methods are
00:00:25.440 00:00:25.450 related to industrial and environmental
00:00:26.999 00:00:27.009 safety they also expose health of people
00:00:29.970 00:00:29.980 implementing the cleaning operations to
00:00:32.010 00:00:32.020 the harmful impact of hydrocarbons
00:00:34.040 00:00:34.050 considerable volumes of oil sludge are
00:00:36.540 00:00:36.550 generated during manual or partially
00:00:38.430 00:00:38.440 mechanized cleaning operations the oil
00:00:40.770 00:00:40.780 sludge is dumped to sludge storage pits
00:00:42.900 00:00:42.910 thus polluting the environment recycling
00:00:45.600 00:00:45.610 of such oil sludge stored in the pits is
00:00:47.550 00:00:47.560 complicated and costly the quantity and
00:00:49.920 00:00:49.930 volume of sludge storage pits are
00:00:51.570 00:00:51.580 constantly growing and the cost of their
00:00:53.520 00:00:53.530 maintenance associated with waste
00:00:54.990 00:00:55.000 storage and treatment increases every
00:00:56.790 00:00:56.800 year 95% of bottom oil sludge in the
00:01:00.090 00:01:00.100 tanks are hydrocarbons if they are
00:01:02.190 00:01:02.200 extracted separated and returned to
00:01:04.289 00:01:04.299 production cycle during the cleaning
00:01:06.300 00:01:06.310 process the volume of oil sludge subject
00:01:08.850 00:01:08.860 for disposal might decrease
00:01:10.230 00:01:10.240 approximately by 95% Mobile autonomous
