MOS Sweeper
Oil spills and potentially large-scale environmental disasters represent a daily challenge for the oil & gas industry worldwide. The MOS Sweeper technology consists of many well-tested principles from maritime industries. The V-shaped MOS Sweeper is designed to be operated from a single vessel. Towing with a speed of 4.5 knots, the design of the MOS Sweeper uses the law of hydrodynamics to recover the oil more efficiently and on nature’s terms. MOS Sweeper has proven its strong
capabilities in harsh weather with high waves and strong currents.
