This skimmer utilizes a Marco Filterbelt with a powerful induction pump behind a rotating oleophilic belt to recover oil from the water's surface. It is designed to recover light diesel to heavy crude oils. Recovered fluid and debris is removed from the belt and collected into a sump. It is typically deployed in near coastal or near-shore waters.
