<p>Large-volume oil containment tents and other flexible structures are provided, especially using an oil-impermeable, water-permeable material. A relatively light-weight flexible structure can be arrayed at sea surface, and dispatched downwards to deepwater such as by adding weighting pellets in hollow region(s). An off-the-shelf oil containment product for tenting-over a deepwater, high-pressure oil emergency is provided. When a deepwater oil emergency occurs, the off-the-shelf, relatively light-weight containment product can be transported immediately to the surface coordinates above the emergency, and deployed rapidly by emergency responders who have been able to previously practice using the containment product.</p> |
