Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a pilot program to convert one or more U.S. Coast Guard open water oil containment and recovery systems, or skimming barriers, into single-vessel skimming systems, and a three-year period of testing and evaluation, using both drills and actual spills of opportunity. This paper describes and evaluates the performance of the proposed single-ship unit, and proposes a conversion plan and a means to evaluate this pilot program.
