1 innovation quality reliability Komara 7 Skimmer System (Formally Komara Mini) December 2015

2 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Overview 2 Vikoma is the world leader in the design and manufacture of oil spill response equipment which has been helping to protect our environment for over 40 years. We have built our reputation on: Quality Reliability Innovation

3 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Introduction 2 Conventional Methods What is it? How Does it Work Different Applications Key Features and Benefits Questions & answers

4 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Overview Vikoma offers quality equipment for each stage of an oil spill operation, including booms, skimmers, tanks, powerpacks and pumps. Vikoma can also offer a range of oil spill response vessels, dispersant spray systems and a range of ancillary equipment, making the job quicker, easier and more effective. Quality equipment for every scenario Containment Recovery Storage

5 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer What is it? The Komara 7 skimmer system is a self-contained, lightweight, versatile oil recovery system comprising of: Oleophilic disc skimmer Unique 2-part diesel powerpack Floating transfer pump All associated hoses and connectors Operates in most environments Recovers up to 7m 3 /hr 98% oil pick-up as witnessed by independent Lloyds assessors

6 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer Where is it used? The Komara 7 can be used in almost all inland and shoreline areas: Ports and harbours Waste oil pits Beach operations Spills in confined areas Inland waterways, ponds, lakes & rivers Successfully employed with: Emergency Response Organisations Coast Guards Fire Brigades Port Authorities

7 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer How does is it work? Single bank of oleophilic discs Rotating discs draw oil into the skimmer Oil adheres to the surface of the discs Oil removed by scrapers mounted against both sides of disc Contaminant collects in sump and is drawn to the floating IMP 50 pump Low water content typically 2% Interchangeable parts for easy maintenance Robust construction

8 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer How does is it work? – Oil flow The single bank of discs create a flow of pollutant towards the skimmer head maximizing oil pick- up To storage

9 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer Which oils will it recover? The Komara 7 oil skimmer will recover a wide range of oils - light diesels to heavy contaminants from 1 cSt to 15,000 cSt

10 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer The IMP 50 Vane Pump Robust self priming vane pump Used for a variety of applications Deals effectively with the heaviest oils Belt driven Can run dry Mounted in a lightweight floating aluminium frame Excellent discharge characteristics Floats behind skimmer eliminating any suction issues Self‐priming Easy & secure Camlock fittings QRC hydraulic connections

11 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer GP7 Powerpack Driven by unique 2 part air cooled, single cylinder GP7 powerpack Splits into 2 parts for ease of transportation conforming to EU weight regulation New low noise, powerful 4.9kW engine Large 3.5litre fuel tank for extended running Manual recoil start High 85bar maximum system pressure 1/2” & 3/8” variable pressure connection ports Large 20 litre filtered hydraulic oil tank Spark arrestor and an engine over-speed shutdown valve for safety Easy 2 man lift for difficult terrain Excellent access for ease of maintenance

12 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer What are the key features and benefits of this system? The single bank of discs create a flow of pollutant towards the skimmer head maximizing oil pick-up. The skimmer discs operate smoothly even at very low speeds, giving more than 98% oil pick-up, which effectively eliminates the need for costly separation or disposal of dirty water. The disc scrapers are manufactured from a specially designed flexible polymer, which precisely follows the contour of the disc ensuring that even the lightest oils are recovered efficiently at rates of up to 7m 3 /hr, as independently witnessed by Lloyd’s. The whole system, including the powerpack, is man portable (within EU manual handling recommendations) making it ideal for emergency response to inaccessible areas.

13 Oil recovery solutions since 1967 Komara 7 Skimmer What are the key features and benefits of this system? The positive displacement transfer pump floats within 1m of the skimmer head. This reduces suction requirement, enabling higher volumes of higher viscosity contaminants to be recovered and discharged. The pump rating is 10m 3 /hr and the system oil recovery rate is 7m 3 /hr as independently witnessed by Lloyds. The diesel powerpack incorporates safety features to ensure that it is safe in oil spill situations. The Komara7 has been deployed around the world and proven to offer extremely high reliability with very low maintenance.
