Vitek Miljø has removed almost 100 containers following Trident Juncture.

«In addition, we have removed around 1,500 cubic metres of septic tank waste and some sludge, and carried out cleaning work on 14 tankers in Åndalsnes. »It’s been four hectic and enjoyable weeks,” says Asle Skålevik, head of the Hazardous Waste Department at Vitek.

The Trident Juncture 18 military exercise recently came to an end. In October and November, around 50,000 participants, 250 aircraft, 65 ships and 10,000 land vehicles from 31 nations gathered in Trøndelag, Møre og Romsdal, Østfold, Oppland and Hedmark, as well as in airspace and maritime areas in Sweden and Finland. This has been the second-largest NATO exercise since the end of the Cold War.

 

From Bergen to Trondheim

And Vitek Miljø has contributed its expertise.

«Our work has mainly taken place in Trondheim, but also in Bergen, Kristiansund, Molde, Oslo, Stavanger and Åndalsnes,» says Asle Skålevik. He reports that the feedback on the work carried out has been very positive.

Some of the work has been carried out by subcontractors.

These are partners who have been quality-assured by us and with whom we have worked closely for a long time.
