Choosing an Oil Containment Boom for River Use


Choosing the right oil containment boom for your river location will depend on several different factors including the water conditions of your location. Information we would need to know regarding your location include the following:

  1. Is there a water current in the location? If so, about how fast is the water moving?
  2. Are there any waves or tides in the area?

Depending on the moving water conditions of your location, booms may feature tension cables and high strength connectors to keep your boom stable in your location. Water conditions can also influence the size of your bottom skirt and top flotation device.
