MOP Environmental Solutions (MOPN)

Completely legitimate PR Friday. Thanks for the opportunity to post this yet again.

That's right sunshine...get the facts straight :)
One more time: BP has known about MOP for many years and when this Gulf Oil disaster hit, according to Wayne King, VP of MOP, MOP submitted BP's letter of approval to BP which is essentially why MOPN was put on BP's resource list, to start.

And Friday's PR outlining BP's purchase order of MOP boom...is the rest of the story.

Quote:During four separate occasions we have had the opportunity to observe the MOP® absorbent product's performance. Three were hard surface spills of various hydrocarbon products (i.e. 30w oil, transmission fluid, heavy naphtha, diesel oil, and blended heavy sop oils). On each occasion the absorbents picked up all of the products leaving no apparent residue. We mixed water at some sights and the hydrophobic properties allowed the absorbent to hold the products while allowing the water to run free and clean of oil.

The other test was with booms and pillows in shore line fresh water. The booms and pillows performed above the standards established by other booms (1.e. polypropylene). The booms had excellent penetration and adequately contained the product spill.

The material is light weight and more economical than the competitive brands we have used. We are extremely pleased with its performance and cost, and would recommend serious consideration of the product before using an alternative.
