ABSTRACT:
A ship-mounted oil spill recovery apparatus includes a spill barrier in the form of a floating boom that can be placed around an oil-carrying ship or vessel to confine oil discharge in an area immediately surrounding the vessel. The spill barrier is connected to a plurality of support booms located on the vessel which move and maintain the spill barrier. Oil recovery lines are attached to the spill barrier for immediate deployment with the spill barrier. The recovery lines are connected to transporting hoses that extend back to the vessel and are connected to a main on-board oil recovery system. Recovered oil is transported to storage enclosures that float in the body of water away from the ship. Transporting lines connecting the storage enclosures with the recovery system transport the recovered oil from the recovery system to the storage enclosure.
