Perth Petroleum Services Oil & Chemical Spill Equipment

Description

• Boom Reels allow oil containment boom to be stored, deployed and recovered rapidly and efficiently after a deployment exercise.
• Oil Containment boom stored on a reel is less likely to be damaged as a result of dragging across wharves, jetties, pylons, rocks, barnacles or other abrasive surfaces.
• Reels are individually manufactured to suit the type, size and length of boom.
• Drum diameter and hub length can be made to suit specific site conditions, storage or transportation requirements.
• Boom Reels are manufactured in painted steel, galvanised steel or stainless steel to suit climatic conditions, exposure to corrosion and type of service.
• Reels are provided with PVC covers to protect the stored boom from UV degradation.
• Hydraulically driven Boom Reels are fitted with a low speed, high torque hydraulic motor. A diesel driven hydraulic power pack provides the power source to operate and control the hydraulic motor.
• The power pack is a stand alone, self contained system that provides remote operation (up to 5 metres) and control of the reel whether it be mounted on a wharf, response vessel or deployed on a beach at a spill site. The power pack has simple, easy to use controls that allow adjustment of the deployment/ recovery speed and the ability to freewheeling in the event of a power failure (deployment only)
