Après le déchargement d'un pétrolier, on avait l'habitude d'utiliser des jets d'eau de mer pour nettoyer les citernes. Les résidus pétroliers entraînés par l'eau de mer formaient un mélange qui se retrouvait au fond de la citerne et était pompé dans la mer. C'est ce qu'on appelle les eaux de cale. Dans certains cas, les eaux de cale étaient stockées dans les citernes et réutilisées comme solution de nettoyage. 3, record 1, French, - eau%20de%20cale
