USS Harry S. Truman in the Oslo Fjord: SAR handled waste from the giant ship
The 333-meter-long behemoth USS Harry S. Truman has been highly visible in the Oslo Fjord.
When USS Harry S. Truman — one of the largest aircraft carriers in the world — arrives in the Oslo Fjord, it's not a common sight. The 333-meter-long (equivalent to 3 football fields), nuclear-powered giant, named after the 33rd President of the United States, is an impressive presence as it docks. With the capacity to carry up to 90 aircraft and equipped for everything from combat operations to humanitarian missions, it’s a unique feature in the landscape outside Akershus Fortress. It was therefore a significant moment for us at SAR to be asked by the Norwegian Waste Agency (NWAAS) to lead the mission involving the safe handling of sewage and oily water from this massive vessel.

Vacation's over, revision for future waste classification continues!
For SAR, it is crucial to invest in projects that have a direct and positive impact on the work we perform daily as a total provider of environmental services. We aim to prioritize circularity, sustainability, and environmental protection in all the solutions and decisions we make.
One of SAR's environmental advisors, Håvard Nateland, is the working group leader for the revision project of the NS9431 standard for waste classification. This project is organized by Standard Norge and involves many skilled players from the waste industry, including NFFA (Norwegian Association for Hazardous Waste) in an observer role, with broad participation from various industry working groups. For SAR, it is important to invest in and set direction for work that promotes environmental protection and sustainability.
