1.1 Emergency towing vessels/<strong>Oil</strong> pollution vessels<br />
Spanish authorities have a fleet <strong>of</strong> 14 tugs, under contract<br />
with private companies, for emergency towing (ETVs), SAR<br />
(Search and Rescue) and <strong>Oil</strong> Spill Response purposes. They<br />
all have a self operating crane to load and unload antipollution<br />
equipment, and they have their own respective<br />
booms and skimmers ready to load. The latest two units<br />
added to the fleet are equipped with sweeping arms.<br />
PUNTA MAYOR, LUZ DE MAR, and MIGUEL DE CERVAN-<br />
TES are the units having dedicated storage tanks for recovered<br />
products with heating coils. The rest <strong>of</strong> the fleet<br />
has open decks that make them suitable for deploying<br />
booms in recovery operations, but their storage capacity<br />
is limited.<br />
45 fast response vessels <strong>of</strong> a smaller size (15 and 20 m) are<br />
positioned along the coastline for SAR activities. They are<br />
currently used as auxiliary units to tender booms and help<br />
the tugs in response operations. A list <strong>of</strong> the tug boats is<br />
provided below. Geographical distribution <strong>of</strong> these vessels is<br />
variable depending on season and needs. The total number<br />
<strong>of</strong> skimmers is 60 units.There are also 59 portable tanks <strong>of</strong><br />
10 m 3 capacity each and 16 portable tanks <strong>of</strong> 7,5 m 3 each.<br />
