Who is financially responsible for an oil spill?
The responsible party for inadequate maintenance or poor health and safety is accountable for the incident, whether it involves a personal oil tank or a workplace incident.
You are responsible for paying for any repairs and oil decontamination if you own a tank that leaks. You are required by law to alert the local council, water provider, and hire oil cleaning professionals. You must inform your insurance provider about the occurrence if your heating tank is covered.
The employer might be liable if the leak happened at work. Poor health and safety procedures or a lack of maintenance on storage tanks, vehicles, or manufacturing equipment may have resulted in a spill at work. Based on the circumstances and possible irresponsibility, the council might fine you, or residents could file a claim against you.
How to prevent an oil spill
As a homeowner or an employer, you can prevent a spill with awareness and maintenance. As a homeowner, you have more individual responsibility than someone overlooking their workplace. You should follow these steps depending on how oil plays a role in your daily life:
Domestic oil tanks
- Keep the tank away from streams, ponds, drains, wells, and water pipes in your home.
- Install further containment or bunding for the tank
- Upgrade your tank to a newer model that is in accordance with British Standards
- Ensure your tank is labelled appropriately with 'Oil Care' stickers, as well as any details about the capacity and type of the tank
- Inspect your tank weekly for rust, corrosion, damage, and leaks
- Have a registered oil technician check and survey your tank annually
- Look out for any signs of leaks such as a sudden decline in your oil levels
- Do not overfill your tank above the recommended amount
- Ensure site gauge valves are shut, or install auto-close British Standard valves
- Supervise any deliveries of oil and ensure your tank is in accordance with health and safety standards
- Have an oil spill kit, absorbent materials, drain blockers, and leak-sealing putty on-site
Workplace oil storage
- Ensure your staff are up to date with the most recent health and safety guidelines, equipment handling, storage, transportation, and emergency response procedures
- Inspect machinery and equipment regularly
- Have spill kits and PPE on-site
- Use filtration fabrics to pad the oil tanks or machinery — filter bags, mesh baskets, and sheets.
- Ensure all vehicles carrying oils are not carrying leaking oil tanks
- Conduct an oil spill risk assessment annually
- Check the spill history of your workplace to identify the most high-risk areas
- Speak with your staff often to ask what you could be doing better for everyone

How to react when oil spills
You should take safety measures to protect yourself in case of a workplace accident, a nearby oil spill, or your household heating oil tank starts to leak. If you are qualified and it is safe, you should try to contain the leak using absorbents like sand or cat litter. If not, you must keep a safe distance and take these next steps:
- If you smell or see oil, stay away from the area
- If you touch the oil, wash it off with warm, soapy water.
- Remove any oil-stained clothing
- Alert residents nearby to the spill and inform your local authorities.
- If you experience any short-term symptoms, call 111. If you experience any serious symptoms, call 999.
