An apparatus for collecting oil from a surface of a water body comprising a drum, the drum rotatably mounted on a vessel such that a lower portion of the drum is positioned below a waterline of the vessel, and a wiper member on the vessel, the wiper member positioned and configured to wipe oil from the drum below the surface of the water body. Wiped oil is collected below the surface of the water body through a series of collection tanks. A dryer wiper wipes water from an unsubmerged portion of the drum to improve oil uptake.
