ABSTRACT:
An offshore oil spill cleanup system is provided which includes a barge arranged downstream of an oil spill to split the flow of oil to either side of the barge, two booms, each arranged on opposite sides of the barge to catch the diverted oil, and stationary skimmers working in the sheltered area behind the barge and within the booms to remove oil from the boom area to the barge. Diversionary booms are arranged upstream of the barge and chase skimming systems are located downstream of the barge and are functionable to move independently of the barge and recover any oil getting past the booms attached to the barge.
