    A JBF DIP 500 SKIMMING SYSTEM Explanation of the skimmer / DIP principle (1) The JBF Dynamic Inclined Plane DIP 500 Oil and Debris Recovery Skimmer System is designed to harvest oil and debris from the surface of the water, separate out the water and pump the harvested products directly from the collection well into oil storage.

  • Page 6: Iii) In-Line Advancing Skimmer-Sweeping-Fsb

    IN-LINE ADVANCING SKIMMER (1) The DIP 500 skimming system is designed to be operated with a ship (commercial leased vessel 60 to 400 feet long), turning it into an efficient oil recovery platform. The vessel must only be capable of operating at speeds from 1 to 3 knots during oil spill recovery operations.
  • Page 7 JBF Environmental Technology This drawing is a sample of what the system should look like when it is deployed. Actual lengths and sizes of boom and outriggers will vary.

  • Page 8: Iv) Selection Of The Dip 500

    Figure 1 DIP 500/ BOOM CONFIGURATION SELECTION OF THE DIP 500 (1) The DIP 500 was chosen by the State of Maine because of the increased speed (3 knots for oil recovery and 6 knots for transiting along side the vessel of opportunity).

  • Page 9: System Description And Characteristics

    (See Figure 2.) The complete system consists of one DIP 500 unit that is operated through its own hydraulic control panel which controls the hydraulic power to the moving plane assemblies and the DOP 250 pumps.

  • Page 10: Table 1 Specifications

    The module has lift sling points welded to the longitudinal bulkheads along with oil boom connection points located on the forward rigging. The DIP 500 System is supplied with 4 inflatable fenders that provide primary floatation to the unit. (FIGURE 3.)

  • Page 11: Operating Concept And Limits

    The DIP 500 is capable of recovering oil at speeds from1 to 3.5 knots with extremely high throughput efficiencies. The DIP 500 doesn’t require thick layers of oil in contained pools, in order to be efficient. The DIP 500 operates equally well in thin slicks and thick oil and in light refined products or high viscosity oils.

  • Page 12: V) Sea State Limitations

    1.5. Debris handling A debris rake is installed on the front of the DIP 500 to prevent large debris from entering the unit. Accumulated debris will have to be removed manually. The vessel may be able to back down and free the debris from the mouth of the boom configuration and maneuver around the debris.

  • Page 13: Ii) Belt Motor

    Collection Well The collection well is located in the aft of the DIP 500 and is made from .25 thick 5052 aluminum alloy. The well has a capacity of 375 gal. (US). Oil Transfer Pumps Installed in the aft compartment of the DIP 500 (Above the collection well) is a DESMI DOP250 oil transfer pump.

  • Page 14: Vii) Transition Booms

    JBF Environmental Technology The control stand ensures operational compatibility between the HPUs, the DIP 500 and the pump. It should be where the operator has a clear view of the skimmer and the apex of the boom configuration used. vii)

    3 STORAGE AND TRANSPORT A Storage The DIP 500 can be stored inside a building, outside in a secure area, on the deck of a sea going vessel or in the cargo hull compartment of the vessel. The units have a protective cover. The units have 4 stacking pins located in each topside corner that match 4 holes located in the 4 corner feet of the unit so that they can securely be stacked 2 high during storage.
  • Page 16 JBF Environmental Technology (2) Remove equipment from storage bin. (a) Remove all other equipment and sort out on deck. (b) Take control stand out. (3) Remove the upper safety grate from the oil collection well / pump compartment. (a) Loosen the locking dog bolts in each corner.

  • Page 17: Ii) Assemble Outrigger Arm

    Deployment of DIP 500 . (2) The design of the DIP 500 VOSS enables it to be deployed with or without the side sweeping containment boom and 15 foot outrigger arm ( See manual...

  • Page 18: Skimming Operations

    (a) Remove two ½” mooring lines from storage box. (b) Connect slings to the 4 lift points at each corner of the DIP 500 skimmer using 4 shackles. (c) Securer 2 mooring lines (from the storage box) to the inboard side of the skimmer one forward and aft.

  • Page 19: Ii) Connect Applicable Boom System And Rigging

    JBF Environmental Technology To operate the pump, connect the hose between the pump discharge connection on the VOSS and to the cargo tanks or the overboard tank. Perform the following procedures: (1) Activate the hydraulic power system. (2) Open the valve to the cargo tank.

    JBF Environmental Technology (6) A pressure gage is located on the angled face of the front panel .. (7) The flow rate of the belt is observed through the P.S.I. gage. (8) The flow rates for the pump is also observed through the P.S.I. gage.

  • Page 21: Retrieval & Layup

    Loosen the mooring lines, spring lines and outrigger arm guy lines. Lift the DIP 500 out of the water. Swing the DIP 500 unit in over the rail and position it so lashing can be installed. Insure that line handlers keep hydraulic hoses, mooring lines and discharge hose clear from beneath the skimmer prior to setting it on deck.

    JBF Environmental Technology Remove all mooring lines. Remove pumps. vii) Wash down or decontaminate the DIP 500 unit and all associated parts. viii) Repack components into storage box. C Lay-up of DIP 500 Repack components into storage box. Remove the debris rods.
  • Page 23 (3) Remove winch from storage box. Attach the winch to the support frame that is aft of the center access hole on the front center topside of the DIP 500. Mount so the cable is centered over the access hole.
  • Page 24 JBF Environmental Technology Remove the belt from the head roller assembly. Lift belt box off of the belt using the 4 lifting eyes or a forklift. Inspect all chain for broken or worn links and the belt for tears or excessive wear.

  • Page 25: Preventive Maintenance & Adjustments

    JBF Environmental Technology Remove the lifting slings. Clean the three hydraulic fitting on the lines and the pump and make all of the connections. Connect the oil discharge hose. vii) Remove the safety grates and stow in storage box. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS...

    JBF Environmental Technology handling it is important to prevent spills). Emergency pump shutdown is possible as follows: (1) Place pump hydraulic control lever in neutral. (2) Shut down hydraulics. (3) Close discharge valve. Operate the pump in reverse for 5- 10 seconds to clear the piping and pump before terminating skimming operations and to prevent water from freezing in the pump.
