BMT has offered to assist the Bangladeshi government with the provision of mercury management services in respect to the decision to ban the Palau-flagged J Nat from entering Bangladesh waters due to the toxic ship J Nat carrying toxic waste with mercury.
The presence of mercury in sludge, together with the associated mercury contaminated steel is a known by-product of oil and gas operations. It has the potential to present a safety risk to personnel and the environment. However, with the application of safe work standards, this can be safely managed.
