Description

The DESMI Ocean Skimmer is a weir lip skimmer capable of operation in the open sea. It is designed to cope with debris contaminated oil and emulsions of medium to high viscosities. The surface hopper leads directly into the suction of a Desmi DOP-250 pump. In operation, vertical adjustments of the weir lip to the oil/water interface are pneumatically controlled from a free-standing control station. An adapter may be attached to the hopper for light oil. The DOP-250 pump may be removed from the floatation frame for use in conventional pumping roles.

Handling/Operation

Use of this skimmer as part of a VOSS system requires the vessel to have a deck crane/boom to deploy and retrieve the unit. It is most effectively used in conjunction with a "J" or "V" boom configuration.
