ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for deploying and taking up an oil fence comprises a floating framework having a substantially enclosed oil fence receiving space therein and one side partly cut away and, roll means disposed in front of the cut-away portion. The roll means can be driven to sinuously house the oil fence within the framework and to pay it out from the latter. Alternatively, a takeup shaft disposed in a box-shaped member with buoyant chambers and fenders may be driven to coil and uncoil the oil fence on and from it through one open side of the box-shaped member.
