The Scorpion S-Series is a shoreline oil boom, also known as shore sealing or beach boom. Specifically designed for beach and coastal protection, it provides a secure line of defense against oil spills. It utilizes two ballast chambers filled with water which act as a seal for the shore and an upper one filled with air, acting as a float. The S-Series’ dual-chamber design adjusts to tidal movements, ensuring continuous protection for sensitive shoreline areas. The boom can be connected to a variety of other types of booms allowing continuous protection from shorelines and trough the water
