<p>A system for containing spillage from a tanker (12) at a moorage. The system in its deflated stated state remains submerged so as not to obstruct the passage of a vessel thereover. Once a vessel is moored in place thereover, the perimeter boom (16) is inflated to bring the boom to the surface to surround the entire ship. A liner (18) contiguously attached to the boom extends downwardly to form impermeable walls (19) and a floor (21) below the tanker. The system is routinely deployed prior to any on-loading or off loading operation when spills are most likely to occur. Deflation of the boom upon completion of the operation causes the entire system to once again assume its submerged state.</p> |
