Vacuum Loading Operations

Vacuum truck systems for sludge, hydrocarbons, and liquid waste.

Overview

Vacuum loading is the workhorse of industrial cleaning, moving sludges, slurries, spent catalysts, and contaminated water from where they collect to where they can be treated.

IMS operates a fleet of vacuum tankers and skid systems with suction capacities from 5 to 30 m³/h, deployable to refineries, terminals, and vessel-side. Crews are trained in hazardous-zone work, line breaking, and pipe-rack discipline.

We coordinate with onshore treatment partners so every load lifted is tracked from skin-of-tank to final disposal manifest.
