The Lamor Free Floating (LFF) Skimmer is a high capacity brush chain skimmer designed to recover oil in offshore operations. It has excellent wave following characteristics and is suitable for use in all environments, including Arctic conditions.

​

How it works

The skimmer has two 4-row oleophilic V-brush chains that separate the oil from the water effectively and lifts the oil to a specially designed brush scraper from where the oil is directed to the oil transfer pump. The double rotation direction capability enhances the recovery of light to heavy viscous oils. The skimmer has a robust aluminum frame and floats with a single lifting point which makes the LFF 100 easy to lift, operate, clean and store. The LFF 100 has a heated scraper and hopper for effective skimming in Arctic conditions and is equipped with thrusters for mobility. The skimmer has been deployed effectively in several oil recovery operations worldwide.
