NOFI Current Buster 2-Shallow Water, is a High Speed Oil Containment system moored in a river.

The NOFI Current Buster technology is one of the world's most efficient and advanced oil containment and recovery systems, capable of containing and controlling oil in up to 5 knots towing speed* without losing any of the contained oil. The NOFI Current Buster 2/SW is based on the same proven current buster technology designed specifically to meet the demands of operating in fast-moving shallow waters. The draft of the Current Buster 2/SW has been reduced to approximately 1 meter and the system can be separated into two parts to aid in overland and air transport to remote locations.

Recent trials on the Columbia, Flathead, Middlefork, and Yukon River using the NOFI Current Buster systems together with a Boom Vane confirm the ease of operations and efficiency in challenging fast water environments in remote location
