Andrei Spirikhin, product manager of the Mirrico Group robotic cleaning method:

"Customers from Kazakhstan highly appreciated the advantages of a robotic stripping compared to the manual method, including safety and efficiency of work because instead of personnel, the tank is cleaned by a remote-controlled cleaner; economic effect and reduction of environmental load (return of at least 90% of oil from sediments to the customer, sending to the landfill the minimum amount of dehydrated sludge due to the phase separation technology)
