An elongate, flexible, buoyant barrier (10) for use in containing spillage of oil on a body of water, such as a sea, lake or river. The barrier in use is partially submerged with its length extending horizontally and around an arc. The barrier (10) comprises a first, inflatable compartment (11) and a second compartment (11), for filling with water. The barrier is either (10) endless or has at its ends means (13) either for interconnecting the ends or for connecting the ends to another structure. The amount of water used to flood the second compartment can be controlled to determine the degree of submergence of the barrier. |
