Offshore Oil Booms: Reliable Solutions for Deep-Water Spill Response
When oil spills occur offshore, rapid containment is essential to protect marine environments and minimize damage. DESMI/TELKO offers expert advice, supply, and training on the industry’s most trusted range of offshore oil booms and barriers, designed for durability and performance in challenging conditions.
GlobeBoom: Superior Fence Boom for Long-Term Containment
A reel-storable fence boom for either rapid deployment or long-term installation, in ports, rivers, industrial basins, and golf course water hazards (seasonal).
Key features:
- HDPE hemi-spherical floats, abrasion and crush resistant, mounted on both sides for stability
- Responds to short-period waves; avoids planing failures common in square-float designs
- No power packs, inflators, or reels required for deployment
- Smooth profile for easy cleaning and maintenance
RO-FENCE: Industrial Oil Booms
A rigid buoyancy boom for long-term deployment in protected and inland waters, ports, harbors, and industrial basins.
Key features:
- Rugged Construction for long-term reliability
- Impact and abrasion-resistant HD Polyethylene floats
- Corrosion-resistant fittings for harsh marine conditions
- Common float design across all sizes for simplified spare parts
- Floats can be unbolted for cleaning or replaced individually
- Anchor eyebolts at intervals or end connectors for secure positioning
Models: RO-FENCE 600, RO-FENCE 900 (shared float design across both)

- Mesh tensile strength: 53 kN / 12,000 lbs
- Polyester filament yarn grid, not a net
- Foam-filled HDPE floats (no polystyrene), 36 cm / 14" diameter
- Cast iron ballast weights with stainless steel bolts and nuts
- Aluminium slide ASTM (F 962) end connectors for quick removal
- Standard section length: 15 m / 50 ft (custom lengths available)
Dimensions: 105 cm / 42" overall height, 75 cm / 30" draft, 30.5 cm / 12" freeboard
A-Boom
A-Boom is designed as a rapid deployment, first-response oil spill containment boom for protected waters. It is intended for temporary emergency use and training purposes.
Developed by DESMI Ro-Clean, A-BOOM is an economical fence boom designed for quick deployment during oil spill emergencies. Its lightweight construction enables easy handling by one or two operators, allowing rapid response when protecting sensitive environments and water resources.
Manufactured from UV-resistant and oil-resistant materials, A-BOOM combines effective containment performance with environmental responsibility. Unlike many conventional booms, A-BOOM can be thermally disposed of at the end of its service life, with only the ballast chain requiring removal.
Note: A-BOOM is not suitable for long-term deployment. The product is specifically designed for first-aid spill response situations and performs exceptionally well as a training boom for spill response exercises and preparedness programs
