Boom Riverboom with inflatable buoyancy

OPEC’s  Riverboat is designed for short term emergency deployment in inland waters, ports, harbours and docks.

This type of boom is typically used for deployment from vessels but its small space requirement and speed of deployment make it suitable for a range of deployments across inland waters.

The inflatable buoyancy chamber displays higher buoyancy to weight ratio and continual ballast and skirt aid oil containment.

Available in a range of sizes, please enquire for more details.
