Compliance
Quality, Health, Safety & Environment
IMS operates under documented procedures for quality management, occupational health and safety, and environmental responsibility. This page summarises the policies in force across every project.
Quality
ISO 9001 Quality Management
IMS maintains a quality management system certified to ISO 9001. The system covers all operational service lines: storage tank cleaning, pipeline cleaning, hydro-blasting, vessel tank cleaning, vacuum loading, chemical cleaning, and industrial maintenance support.
Every project is delivered against a written method statement, with documented risk assessment, equipment-readiness records, and a sealed closeout package that the client can carry into their next audit.
The certificate, scope statement, and recent surveillance audit summaries are available on request to clients and procurement teams.
Health & Safety
Safety practices that don't change between jobs
Confined-space entry, hot-work permits, lockout/tagout, gas testing, and rescue cover are non-negotiable steps on every project. Crews are trained and refreshed annually on entry procedures, atmospheric monitoring, and emergency egress.
Hazardous-atmosphere work is supported by independent gas-free certification where the client requires it, with permits issued and supervised before any hot work begins.
We participate in client safety inductions for every refinery and terminal we operate at, and we are happy to align our procedures with client-specific HSE rules on request.
Environment
Hazardous waste, tracked end to end
Every cubic metre lifted is logged. Sludge, contaminated water, spent chemicals, and dewatered solids are transported and treated through licensed waste-reception partners, with a sealed manifest accompanying each load from skin-of-tank to final disposal.
Where the waste stream contains recoverable hydrocarbon, three-phase centrifugation separates and returns clean oil for re-injection or resale, reducing the volume going to landfill or incineration by typically 30 to 40 percent.
Containment tarpaulins, spill kits, and absorbent stock are present on every site visit. Crews are trained to escalate any uncontained release within minutes.
