Hydraulic Boom Reels for Oil Spill Containment

Oil Containment Boom Reels

ABASCO custom-built boom reels are an ideal way to stow oil containment boom for quick and easy deployment and retrieval with limited personnel. Reels are available either skid-mounted or skid-on-utility-trailer. Skid-mounted is for permanent installations or where other means of transportation are available. The skid-on-utility-trailer reel is more versatile and may be transported with a 1/2-ton pick up truck to cover a broader area. At the spill site, the boom may be deployed directly from the trailer. Alternately, the skid can be off-loaded to a boat or barge for deployment.

ABASCO boom reels are of epoxy-coated all-welded steel or all-aluminum construction for corrosion resistance. Available drives include:

Case Studies

Project Overview

Construction sediments were contained within designated work zones during seismic and hydraulic upgrades at three reservoirs originally built in 1888. The project included demolition, installation of new tunnel liners, and the refurbishment or replacement of water management infrastructure. Frequent barge traffic was accommodated while maintaining water quality through the use of 9,150 feet of tapered Type 3 HD turbidity curtains.
