Offshore Base Support Vessel (4 Point Mooring Setting Barge): Total tonnage 2,841 tons, Dimensions 70x32x4, Coastal waters

What is an Oil Skimmer?
It is composed of an oil collection unit, buoyancy device or support equipment, and pumps to transfer the collected oil to storage facilities. It is classified according to the mechanical recovery method, which physically collects the floating oil on the water surface, into methods such as weir, oleophilic, vacuum, and trawl.

Disk type: Recovery capacity 30㎘/hr


Drum type: Recovery capacity 20㎘/hr


Brush type: Recovery capacity 16㎘/hr

What is an Oil Fence?
To facilitate the recovery of offshore oil spills or prevent them from entering sensitive areas, suitable forms of oil barriers are installed. Depending on the installation form, they are categorized as curtain type, fence type, and others. Based on their size (above-water height + below-water height), they are classified as A (70 cm or less), B (70-150 cm), and C (150 cm or more).

Rigid
Rapid deployable
air-injection type

• It has a continuous skirt at the waterline and is supported by a solid or air-inflated hull.
• Air-inflated types can be stored in narrow spaces when the air is removed, whereas solid types are strong against damage but require large storage areas, and have excellent wave-following properties.
