Pre-Planned Maintenance

Pre-Planned Maintenance Checks

Our contracted PPM checks involve Sterling teams attending around 86 certas energy sites per year, carrying out checks on the site buildings and external areas.

As part of these PPMs, our designated teams complete gutter cleans and carry out a legionella water test each year.

These checks allow our teams to capture any minor issues on-site, that may have alternatively resulted in a reactive call-out job and additional costs. 

Filter maintenance

Interceptor Cleans

Interceptor cleans on a fuel depot involve the cleaning and maintenance of interceptors, which are devices designed to capture and filter pollutants such as oil, fuel, and other contaminants from water runoff before it is discharged into the environment.

Regular maintenance reduces the risk of costly environmental damage and operational downtime; therefore we carry out 159 Interceptor cleans per year spanning across the UK.

Outdoor safety

Grass & Weed

Completing 232 grass and weed visits during the last year, these have contributed to maintaining safety of the fuel depots, by regularly cutting grass, trimming hedges, and applying weed killer.

By managing vegetation, fuel depots reduce the likelihood of oil pooling in such areas, ensuring a safer and more stable environment while also mitigating environmental risks and maintaining site integrity.
