A compact coherent jet of water is directed downward into a body of water to create surface currents flowing outward from the jet that carry along floating substances, such as an oil slick. Relative horizontal movement between the jet and the body of water creates a bow wave that diverges downstream to push floating substances laterally of the jet as respects the direction of the relative movement. A line of such jets is used to divert an oil slick. Laterally-spaced jets in front of an oil skimmer are used to funnel an oil slick into the skimmer entrance.
