The invention relates to a floating container for the transportation of contaminated oil. The transportable container makes possible the transportation in shallow areas and also permits the container to carry the oil in heavy sea within the risk that the container will be destroyed and that oil will escape. The container comprises a floating body (1), which extends along the circumference of the container forming an opening rim for a submerged bin (3) attached to the floating body. The bin comprises walls (4) and a bottom (5) of flexible material and the interior of the bin can communicate with the surrounding water through an opening (6A, 6) in its bottom. The lateral walls (4) of the bin can be vertically adjusted by regulating means (11, 12), whereby the draft of the container can be varied. <IMAGE> |
