FACILITY FOR COLLECTING IMMISCIBLE FLUID OFF WATER SURFACE Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC E02B15/04 

FIELD: oil and gas production.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be implemented for elimination of oil product outflow. The facility consists of a cylinder chamber, an immersed pump with a float, a drive, a pressure pipeline, a flexible hose of electric power supply, a circular inlet into the cylinder chamber with a caging, and of floats facilitating buoyancy of the facility. Surface layer of water together with immiscible fluid of density below density of water is accumulated in the vertically installed cylinder chamber a lower end of which is tight proof closed, while an upper end has a circular entrance between the cylinder chamber and its cover.
