World Catalog of Oil Spill Response Products app for iPhone and iPad

The Catalog

The World Catalog is a comprehensive listing of information on containment booms, skimmers, sorbents, oil/water separators, pumps, temporary storage devices, beach cleaners, and dispersant application equipment.

The Catalog has been in use for over 30 years all around the world. The World Catalog can be found wherever oil is produced, wherever oil spill equipment is available, wherever decision-makers and equipment buyers are located. Our coverage is worldwide. Major oil companies, government agencies, shipping companies, terminal facilities, and oil spill co-ops all use the Catalog and have done so for years. It is a primary reference for oil spill response contingency planning.

The World Catalog started out as a basic listing of equipment specifications in 1986, and it has since evolved to be a useful reference book with descriptions of how equipment works, how to select equipment for different applications, and summaries of field and tank tests. As always, it includes comprehensive data listings with information on currently available containment booms, skimmers, sorbents, oil/water separators, pumps, and temporary storage devices. With this edition we hope that we have met the high standards that have made the World Catalog the essential reference that it is
