U.S. OIL BOOM HAS FOCUSSED ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PRACTICAL AND EFFECTIVE OIL SPILL TECHNOLOGIES. EXISTING SYSTEMS ARE CUMBERSOME, SLOW TO DEPLOY, INEFFECTIVE IN CONDITIONS THAT RIBBON BOOMS EXCELL IN. RIBBON BOOMS FACILITATE AVIATION DELIVERY AND 100% EFFECTIVE CONTAINMENT . DESIGN CRITERIA MET BY U.S. Oil Boom's TECHNOLOGIES CREATE OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS AND CONTAINMENT RESULTS AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE BETTER THAN EXISTING TECHNOLOGIES. US OIL BOOM BOOM TECHNOLOGIES CAN AUTO DEPLOY AND PROVIDE ABSOLUTE CONTAINMENT IN OPERATIONAL WINDOWS FAR OUTSIDE ANY OTHER BOOMS. U.S.Oil Boom RIBBON BOOMS ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR HUMAN HANDLING AND FACILITATE AUTOMATED AND REMOTELY CONTROLLED RESPONSE MECHANICS.
U.S. Oil Boom is the oil spill technology and services subsidiary of Roberts Oil Co Pty Ltd
METAL RIBBON FIRE BOOM
Metal ribbon fire boom deploys at rates up to 250ft/minute, our booms require no manual handling and form a rigid vertical barrier around any oil spill.Spilled oil is contained absolutely, we guarantee the effectiveness of our booms. Boom is stored in an easy to handle compact coil which is placed in the water and delpoyed by uncoiling around the spill. The boom forms a rigid vertical barrier around the spill providing an absolute containment and fire proof barrier.

This is an entirely polyethylene ribbon boom, a single use 100% recyclable boom- after use simply roll into its recycle pack and return to us oil boom for recycling, no cleanup. The patented design is similar to US Oil Booms metal ribbon fire boom except construction is entirely polyethylene and it is truly inexpensive. Coils provide a double role as an effective life raft for emergency use.
The US Oil Boom Co has the first truely effective oil spill response by helicopter, The Bell 206B in
this image stands alongside 500 feet of 4 ft offshore fire boom, one lift
for this aircraft allows 100 knot delivery to any spill site. US Oil
Boom Co offers oil spill response by air or by surface with air support

Notes
1. Boom weight varies with gauge and metal used for the metal ribbon spine.
2. The height ratio above the waterline to below the water line can be varied to suit function.
3. Rapid deployment, rates to 250 ft per minute all sizes, place coil in water, unwind.
4. Simple and fast to recoil and recover 100 ft boom up to inshore 2 ft is 10 minutes.
5. Recoil, clean by standing on paper pad, store inside, low maintainence.
6. Ribbon booms coiled storage form facilitates mechanical handling and deployment, the coiled storage form contains energy as a watch spring stores energy and when released the boom can be self deploying - automated function.
7. Poly booms use the same design technology as metal ribbon fire booms, but are lower cost, super efficient - single use technology.
8. All metal ribbon booms are fireproof - allowing the insitu burning option and fire containment of spilled oil
