Oil distribution company needs to protect watercourse from oil spills

OVERVIEW

  • Darcy’s client, an oil distribution company that delivered by the means of a canal barge system, needed a way of protecting the watercourse when filling / delivering from any leakages.
    After a site visit, our client required a system that enabled any oil that escapes to be captured within the boom system.

ISSUES IDENTIFIED ON SITE

  • Area within canal is open to leakage when any oils are delivered / taken from site.

SOLUTION

  • The boom on this site is a 33f containment boom designed to contain oil spillages.
  • The boom is on standby and not deployed unless they have a spillage when unloading the oil off the barge on the canal.
  • The boom is deployed across the river using a pulley mechanism that locks into place on the opposite side of the river.
