Recovery of Highly Viscous Oils

Recovering highly viscous oils at sea has long been a challenge during major oil spills. To meet this need, DESMI has developed the BELT Skimmer – a specialized attachment for the TERMINATOR Skimmer designed specifically for handling thick, heavy oils.

Efficient Oil Recovery

  • The BELT Skimmer operates in bi-directional mode, allowing it to adapt to different oil types.

  • Oil is drawn in and discharged into the hopper, where a vertical screw pump efficiently transfers it onward.

  • The pump is designed to avoid emulsification, ensuring that oil and water can be quickly separated before storage.

Enhanced Pumping Capabilities

  • Annular water injection system reduces pressure loss in the discharge hose, enabling the smooth pumping of extremely viscous oils.

  • Water injection (hot or cold) can be applied at either the pump inlet or outlet.

Advanced Features & Options

  • Fitted with teeth to pull in heavy oil layers effectively.

  • Optional remote control and thrusters for precise skimmer positioning.

  • Available with a range of custom configurations to meet operational needs.

Versatile Solutions

  • For heavy oils, the BELT Skimmer’s teeth provide strong grip and recovery efficiency.

  • For a wider range of oil types, the ALLIGATOR Skimmer – equipped with stiff bristles on the belt – offers additional versatility.
