We are the leading, not-for-profit ship pollution response advisers

ITOPF Services & Coronavirus

ITOPF continues to provide its core services and remains ready and prepared to support incidents and response operations worldwide.

In the event of an incident, our usual emergency notification procedure still applies. Please call +44 (0)20 7566 6998 for immediate attention. (Do not email for an emergency situation.) Your call will be put through to a Duty Officer, who will take details and provide you with technical advice.

We continue to monitor the situation with regard to international travel and will work with you to evaluate the options available for mobilisation to site should an incident arise. We are also fully able to provide technical advice remotely.

ITOPF staff also remain available for non-emergency technical services. For ongoing cases, damage assessment, claims analysis or advice on contingency planning, advisory work or training we remain at constant readiness to assist in the usual manner.

In light of new restrictions in the UK, ITOPF’s office in London is currently closed. All staff are working remotely and are operating virtually.

All staff members are contactable through their usual email addresses (i.e. firstnamesurname@itopf.org) and direct dial telephone numbers. For general enquiries please call +44 (0)20 7566 6999 or email central@itopf.org.
