The invention relates to an oil spill response system, by which the oil present on the water surface is collected into an oil combatting vessel having at the side thereof an inlet (1) located at the water level and a water flow conduit (3) extending from the inlet, the flow conduit having an oil separating unit for separating the oil present on the surface of water, and the flow conduit leading to a return conduit (15) provided with an outlet (2). According to the invention, the oil separating unit includes a first separator (4) to be installed in the flow conduit (3) in the flow direction of water and being formed by a brush cassette constituting a separating surface obliquely rising from the water in the flow direction of water, and following the brush cassette a framework module (25) disposed in the flow conduit, to which framework module the brush cassette is supported and which framework module has a second separator (5) provided with a rotating drum brush, as well as water outlets (26) for directing the cleaned water to the return conduit (15). |
