When oil or floating debris hits the water, every minute counts. Oversea Response deploys industrial-grade oil skimmers to recover free-floating oil and contaminants quickly, whether responding to an emergency marine spill or supporting ongoing industrial water treatment.
Our skimming equipment, including our Advanced Flow Skimmers and Collection Pods, works alongside our OSRVs and Balaena® technology to give clients a complete recovery solution, not just a single piece of equipment
Oil Skimmers for Industrial and Emergency Response
What Oversea Response Oil Skimmers Do
Oil skimmers remove free-floating oil and contaminants from the surface of water without disturbing the water beneath it.
Unlike water treatment systems, skimmers are built specifically to separate oil, plastics, and other floating debris, making them a critical first step in any spill response or industrial recovery operation.
Oversea Response matches skimming equipment to the conditions of each job, from calm industrial retention ponds to open marine environments.
Our Advanced Flow Skimmers recover surface contamination quickly and efficiently before it spreads, whether that contamination is oil, sheens, or floating debris.
They are built for refinery stormwater ponds, tank farm containment areas, petrochemical facility outfalls, and industrial sites near sensitive waterways.
When storms or hurricanes are on the way, our Advanced Flow Skimmers help facilities stay prepared and proactive rather than reactive.
Advanced Flow Skimmers
Collection Pods
Our modular Collection Pods are designed to quickly and efficiently recover plastic pellets and other floating micro-debris from stormwater systems, outfalls, ditches, retention ponds, and active waterways, all without disrupting facility operations.
They deploy rapidly, minimize manpower requirements, and support environmental compliance initiatives for refineries, petrochemical plants, rail yards, and ports.
Backed by Induced Flow Technology
Rather than relying solely on traditional vacuum trucks or standard skimmers that recover large volumes of excess water along with the product, Oversea Response utilizes patented Induced Flow Technology to achieve a verified 99% product recovery rate.
By separating floating contaminants such as hydrocarbons, sheens, and plastic pellets from water in real time, our clients reduce waste hauling costs, recover valuable product, and improve day-to-day operational efficiency.
Emergency Response Oil Skimmers
When a spill happens, our emergency response team deploys oil skimmers as part of a rapid containment and recovery operation.
Working in coordination with our OSRVs and Balaena® technology, our skimmers recover oil on scene, reducing environmental impact and helping clients meet regulatory response timelines.
-
An oil skimmer removes floating oil and other contaminants from the surface of water, separating it from the water below so it can be recovered and properly disposed of or treated.
-
A skimmer physically removes oil and floating debris from the surface of water, while an oil water separator treats a mixed oil and water stream to separate the two. Oversea Response can advise which solution fits your situation.
-
Yes. Oversea Response deploys oil skimmers as part of our emergency spill response operations, working alongside our OSRVs for rapid on-scene recovery.
-
Yes. Our Collection Pods are purpose-built to recover plastic pellets and other floating micro-debris from stormwater systems, outfalls, and waterways, in addition to oil recovery.
