HARBO provides an immediate offshore containment boom (floating barrier) that prevents the disastrous consequences of marine oil spills. What turns oil spills into major disasters is the simple fact that there are no immediate containment systems on board large ships and oil rigs. So, there is nothing on-site to prevent the oil slick from spreading. HARBO's lightweight and portable system solves this problem.
