By the time the Deepwater Horizon well was capped, 411 controlled burns were conducted in the Gulf of Mexico with the majority employing Elastec/American Marine’s fire booms. The success of our patented Hydro-Fire® Boom and American Fireboom systems with burns lasting four times longer than the competition’s – some up to 12 hours in duration – has encouraged further advancements in our already superior fire boom product line.
