About flemingCo

flemingCo environmental was founded in 1997 by  Flemming Hvidbak who has 25 years of experience within the oil spill industry. He has been active in oil spill clean-up operations, both off- and on-shore and has carried out numerous oil spill response training courses in five continents. He has developed several types of oil spill response equipment, which have been incorporated into the oil spill contingencies of more than 100 countries. He has planned, conducted, or participated in tests of oil spill response equipment for DESMI, for Bitor America Corporation, for LAMOR, at OHMSETT, with GPC/US Navy/US Coast Guard, and with the Canadian Coast Guard/SAIC. He has spearheaded the development of the new extreme viscosity oil pumping techniques, based on annulus ring steam or hot water injection on the inlet side of the transfer pump. He served as Lead Engineer for the Joint Viscous Oil Pumping System workshop and test in Houma, Louisiana December 2003. This was the largest and most costly test ever within the oil spill community and involved over 100 people from seven nations. Flemming holds a B.S. in mechanical engineering along with a marine engineer education.

flemingCo drags in associated independent oil spill response experts from case to case.

flemingCo environmental is committed to contribute to the global environment by offering equipment and process design, as well as engineering and consulting services to the oil spill response industry, the oil industry and Government.
