The scope of the work consists of the removal of the six pipelines from the river. That's priority number one which needs to be done in order for the Department of Waterways and Public Works to start the waiting duties.

[Voice of Martin Tipker, HSE Specialist at Shell]

This is a unique project for Shell Pernis. It’s especially challenging from a HSE safety point. You need different professional disciplines while on the water, as well when underwater. The planning has to be coordinated very well.

Inevitably, you hope it will be a success.

This was such an unique project that HSE supervision was always present while on the water.

But with very good partnership and a lot of fun, which I think is important, we managed to all do a great job.
