SLURP Oil Skimmer

 SLURP (Self-Leveling Unit for Removing Pollution) is a self-adjusting, floating weir-type oil skimmer, originally developed by Esso Research Centre, Abingdon, England. Used worldwide for over twenty years to remove oil and other floating pollutants from the surface of protected waters, SLURP is one of the most versatile skimmers made, working efficiently in any situation at rates up to 30 gpm [113 l/m]. Rugged and lightweight, it can easily be handled by one person.
