An installation and a process for removing floating fluids and materials, particularly oil, from the water surface is recommended, whereby between two floats, specifically of a catamaran (11), a turn around cylinder and a driving cylinder, which is driven preferable by a bladed wheel (4), are mounted. Around the cylinders an endless band (1) is moved. The oil is absorbed from the water surface (30) preferable by capillary forces in a honey comb structure of the endless band (1). The oil is discharged preferable by blowing down with a compressed air nozzle (5) and discharging in a sump (7). The catamaran is preferable pulled by a tug boat with a tug rope and is steered by a steering rope. The compressed air to the catamaran as well as the suction of the oil is supplied from the tug boat.
