ABSTRACT:
A system for alleviating oil spills from an oil tanker which includes a pump having an intake extending into the oil compartment within the tanker, and a flexible container coupled to the pump for receiving oil from the pump. The flexible and collapsible container is adapted to be lowered over the side of the oil tanker as it is receiving oil from the pump, so that the container floats along side of the vessel until its oil is reclaimed.
