ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns an arrangement for collecting of oil (11) and other contaminations floating on a water surface. The arrangement includes a container-like structure (7) floating on the water and provided with a closable inlet (15) for water and oil and located at the water surface level. In the bottom of the container-like structure (7) there is provided downwardly projecting tubes (16-18) ending into the water and provided with pump means (19-21) for pumping water in and out. At the upper portion of said structure (7) there is connected an outlet pipe (8) for oil. When pumping out water, oil is collected in the container space and at a subsequent pumping in of water the oil is pressed out through said outlet pipe (8), the inlet opening (15) being closed at that occasion.
