The oil spill occurred in the Almetyevsk district

6 April 2021, Tuesday

An emergency spill of petroleum products occurred last weekend in the Almetyevsky district near "Orlyonok" children's health camp. During the inspection of the territory, it was found that the accident occurred due to excessive pressure on the pipeline. As a result, there was a release of petroleum products into the well, which led to its overflow and spilling the contents onto the soil. The total area of the contaminated site was 640 sq. m.
