Boom Vane pulling oil boom into the river

The Boom Vane© is simply a series of vertical vanes which drive into the current. The boom is attached to a towing bridle which is towed behind. The main tethering rope is anchored on the river bank upstream of the recovery point, when the Boom Vane is launched it drives into the current on an arch as in the diagram. The faster the current the tighter the angle of the boom.

BoomVane being used in a river to deploy containment boom.

Sampling Split Oil:

Sampling of floating or stranded oil are taken generally for qualitative purposes to confirm the source of the oil, rather than quantitatively to map concentrations. Only small quantity of oil (i.e 10-20 g) are usually required for analysis. Samples from the water surface can be collected directly with sampling jars or sorbent pads.
