Ultra-Rapid Boom, 2-Person Quick-Deploy Oil Spill Emergency Response, 50 ft

In oil spill response operations, industrial size booms and operators generally arrive hours after the spill occurs, with devastating consequences. The Ultra-Rapid Boom supplements this response with a portable, lightweight barrier that can be kept onsite for immediate deployment. With Ultra-Rapid Boom, oil spills can be contained in minutes with only two operators and a small boat, drastically improving clean-up capacity and the effectiveness of the full response.

This is the fastest deploying oil boom on the planet! A lightweight and portable solution enables deployment within minutes by just two people, drastically reducing spill damage. With immediate containment capabilities, Ultra-Rapid Boom controls the spill at its source, improving clean-up effectiveness.

Features:

• 50' length
• Portable: Lightweight and portable design supporting a rapid response - containment in minutes not hours.
• Easy Handling: Easy-to-use and only requires two non-specialized personnel.
• Convenient: Instead of bringing people and equipment to site after the spill, the equipment is available on site for rapid deployment.
• Immediate Response: Contain marine oil spills immediately without heavy machinery or trained responders.
• Better Containment: Improves oil spill response effectiveness by containing oil when the spill occurs and stopping its spread thereby supporting clean-up methods.
• Reduced Impact: Helps avoid/reduce costly clean-up measures, infrastructure shutdowns, negative press, and regulatory fines.
• Smart Design: Durable and designed to respond effectively in coastal and inland waterways as well as offshore.
• Unlimited Length possible: Contains any size spill with unlimited length capacity by stringing many booms together.
• Less Storage Required: Requires 20-33% less storage space than ordinary containment boom. An all-terrain vehicle can carry 500 ft (152.4 m), and a 20 ft container can hold 7,500 ft (2,286 m).
