The Most Versatile EnvironmentalMulti-functional Vessel ever designed
The vessel described below is a Multi-functional Garbage and Oil Spill Collection Cleaning Boat. It has a catamaran-type hull construction and will be constructed from marine-grade aluminium plate and extrusion. It will be powered by twin diesel engines which will drive twin fixed pitch propellers, hydraulically. All material and machinery specified will be approved by a Class Society. The vessel will have no onboard accommodation but will have all the necessary work areas for it crew to fulfil its design function as an oil spill control or garbage handling vessel.
The vessel has been designed to have the following capability:
▪ to collect floating trash, garbage and other small floating objects within the confines of a port ports
▪ to support INITIAL RESPONSE TEAM during oil spill recovery TIER LEVEL 1
The proposed vessel shall have a minimum equipment specification as listed in the technical description below.
The vessel is also supplied with two (2) years of strategic spares and any special tools required for its ongoing maintenance and upkeep. The cost includes the training of 5 crew members in the operation and maintenance of the vessel.
EQUIPMENT
LAMOR Oil Recovery Systems
The Lamor brush chain-type free-floating oil skimmer is specified on this vessel. It is designed to recover oil in fast-flowing rivers, oil ponds and harbours The skimmer can be used in all terrains and environments. The one 3-row oleophilic V-brush chain bank separates the oil from the water effectively and lifts it to the specially designed brush cleaner from where the oil is directed to the oil transfer pump. The skimmer has a special flow design to improve oil recovery in stationary conditions. The double rotation direction capability enhances the recovery of light to heavy viscous oils. The skimmer has robust detachable aluminium floats, aluminium frame and single lifting point making it easy to lift, operate, clean and store.
The Lamor skimmer will be capable of cleaning TIER 1 oil spills (crude oil/ marine heavy oil) at a minimum rate of 6T within 5 hours (although the Lamor units have proved significantly better performance than this in reality).
Two hydraulically operated spools are provided to store and deploy oil booms as required.
All recovered oil is pumped to storage tanks from where it can be transferred to a barge or onshore facility. Storage capacity for up to 20 tonnes is allowed for.
