Self-Inflating NEOBoom NEOBoom is a containment boom that combines the compactability of an air-inflated boom with the benefits and strength of conventional foam flotation. The boom features ease of deployment, wave conformity and high buoyancy-to-weight ratios. NEOBoom requires approxi- mately a third of the storage space needed for conven- tional booms and can be deployed by fewer person- nel. There are no internal devices for inflation or deflation. NEO Boom's flotation foam inflates when the air valve is opened and deflates by rolling the boom into a coil or winding it onto a boom reel for compact storage. Customers include U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. oil spill response organizations, international oil companies, ter- minal operators and vessel operators. www.ciagent.com Hannay Reels Oil Containment Boom Reels Hannay Reels Oil Containment Boom Reels are designed for use with flotation, inflatable, collapsible and flexible cylinder booms.
