An oil spill skimmer is disclosed. The skimmer is designed to be arranged quickly on an oil-spilled area upon an oil spill accident, thereby quickly recovering oil from water while restricting a spread of oil over a wide area. In the skimmer, upper and lower housings are arranged in the top and bottom of the skimmer, with a plurality of anteflex wings being regularly arranged in a space formed between the two housings. A power chamber is concentrically positioned inside the lower housing and acts as a main buoyancy chamber of the skimmer. In the operation of the skimmer, an oil slick and an oil-water mixture are introduced into the interior of the lower housing through associated suction pipes while being pumped by associated pumps, thus individually forming a jet allowing the skimmer to be rotatable. In addition, an external blade, mounted to the outside end of one anteflex wing, allows the skimmer to eccentrically rotate and move around within an oil-spilled area when the skimmer rotates due to the jet. In the lower housing, oil is separated from water by a plurality of separation panels capable of separating the oil from the water using a difference in volume ratio between the oil and the water.
