 ABSTRACT

Oil skimmers are essential tools used in seas and oceans to

address and mitigate the environmental impacts of oil
spills. When oil is accidentally or intentionally discharged
into marine environments, it poses a serious threat to
aquatic ecosystems, wildlife, and coastal communities. Oil
skimmers play a crucial role in the cleanup process by
removing and recovering the spilled oil from the water
surface.
INTRODUCTION

Oil Skimmer Boat: Protecting Our

Oceans
Oil skimmer boats are crucial for preserving the health and diversity
of our world's oceans. These boats play a vital role in removing oil
spills from the water's surface, preventing catastrophic environmental
disasters that can harm marine life and ecosystems. In this
presentation, we will explore the various types of oil skimmer boats,
their unique features and capabilities, and the numerous benefits and
success stories associated with their usage.

• Pipes and Joints
• Battery
• Oil Collector Tank
• Inlet & Outlet Pipes
• Boat Frame

• Filter Mesh
• Resistors Capacitors
 METHODOLOGY

• Water is collected through Collector Inlet

• This is driven to separator tank using DC Pumps
• Now the Separator has 2 partitions
• Oil & Water Viscosity Leads oil to float on top
• This is used to collect oil in right side chamber
• This oil is now pumped through outlet pump
• Separated water is thrown back through Water outlet pipe
This separated oil is now collected in the oil tank
located at the back of the boat. The water inlet
collectors that are used to collect water and oil are
integrated with steel mesh to filter out garbage or sea
creatures from entering the pump.

The boat operates by the operator and drive the DC

motor with propeller in order to create a drive. It uses
a servo motor with rudder system to achieve
directional movement.
Thus the swarm allows for a safer and futuristic way
to deal more effectively with oil spills .
