Calling Emergency Services

When faced with incidents involving fire, explosion, or loss of containment, follow these steps:

  • Fire Services: Dial 999 immediately to request assistance from the Fire Services. This is crucial to manage potential fire hazards effectively.
  • Police Assistance: In situations involving escalation concerns or public safety issues, also dial 999 to request police assistance.

Role of the Police

The police play a critical role in managing public safety and access control:

  • They establish a cordon at a safe distance from the refinery entrance to prevent unauthorized access.
  • This measure helps mitigate risks to the public and ensures a safer environment during the incident.
