5. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Shoreguardian Boom What is it? Neoprene Shoreguardian is a simple, high performance and versatile boom for use at water and land interfaces. It consists of boom, in lengths of 10m, 15m or 20m, suitably packed in a custom boom bag. Vikoma also offer a range of optional ancillary equipment including water and air pressure relief valves, a portable inflator, lower ballast charge pump and tow bridles.

6. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Where is it used? Shoreguardian can be used for intertidal zones, rivers, marshes or indeed any application that requires a seal between the land and water. Coastal areas Shoreline operations Rivers, lakes and inland waters Successfully employed with: Emergency response organisations Coast Guards Port Authorities Shoreguardian Boom

7. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 How does is it work? Shoreguardian Boom The boom is designed as a triple tube construction consisting of two lower water ballast chambers and one upper air chamber. The thermoplastic booms are Radio Frequency (RF) Welded and the neoprene booms are vulcanised (pressure and heat). Both of these manufacturing capabilities result in joints which are stronger than those produced by the inferior cold gluing process. The two lower chambers are connected by a vertical membrane with reinforced apertures. This acts as a tension member and also allows the water ballast to fill and move between the chambers thus ensuring the integrity of the seal and maintaining stability. Once afloat, Shoreguardian exhibits excellent wave following and heave response characteristics. The interface between the boom material and marine grade aluminium connector plate is achieved without puncturing the material, thus ensuring boom integrity.

9. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Shoreguardian Boom Design The boom is designed as a triple tube construction consisting of two lower water ballast chambers and one upper air chamber. The thermoplastic booms are Radio Frequency (RF) welded and the neoprene booms are vulcanised (pressure and heat). Both of these manufacturing capabilities result in joints which are stronger than those produced by the inferior cold gluing process. The joints are designed to eliminate failure by ‘peel’.

10. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Operation The boom is inflated and ballasted through robust, colour coded marine valves located at the ends of the chambers. Shoreguardian Boom

11. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Optional portable inflator & lower ballast charge pump The portable air inflator is designed for efficient inflation of Shoreguardian boom. The petrol driven unit is highly portable and is supplied with a shoulder strap, which makes it easy to use by one person. The lower ballast charge pump is a high capacity petrol driven centrifugal unit that ensures quick and efficient filling of the lower chambers. Shoreguardian Boom

12. Oil recovery solutions since 1967 What are the key features and benefits of this system? A comprehensive range of materials and boom lengths are available to meet all needs. Quick and easy deployment. The large and flexible surface of the lower chambers effects an excellent shoreline seal. The boom's continuous cylindrical shape, coupled with low air inflation pressure and neutral water ballast results in excellent wave following and heave response characteristics when the boom is afloat. Shoreguardian is designed to enable connection with other Vikoma boom systems and equipment thus extending the range of operation. Shoreguardian Boom
