The Ports and Harbors Bureau of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has a number of work vessels which can be dispatched to sea to skim oil when spilled from a wrecked ship. The Port and Airport Research Institute provides technical support to them, in the case of oil skimming systems. However, we need more oil spill vessels to cover rapidly in emergency, the great length of the Japanese coastline. Therefore, we are researching the development of an oil skimming system for port construction work vessels; these are widely distributed at ports and harbors throughout Japan. This would enable us in an emergency to use work vessels instead of special oil skimming vessels. This article introduces the technical support of our new proposal.
