In the case of large ships or offshore facilities, when cargo oil or HNS leaked due to piercing or breakage due to ship collision, etc., up to now, they have been used to seal the piercing and damaged parts by using a method such as a handwashing or welding.

On the other hand, in the case where the oil is leaked due to the breakage or breakage of the hull, means for preventing the spread of the spilled oil or means for treating the spilled oil that has already flowed out to the sea are disclosed in Korean Utility Model Registration Bulletin (Y1) 20-0376715 2005/03/09.), And an apparatus for preventing the spread of floating oil in a marine fleet of an oil spill preventive apparatus for preventing the spread of oil spill, and a registered patent publication (B1) 10-0169023 (Mar. 18, 1999) Are the means for the control after the outflow.

In addition, as a means for urgent maintenance of the pierced or damaged part, the ship emergency repair device of the Korean Patent Registration No. (B1) 10-1293479 (2013.08.08.), The emergency piercing portion of the ship piercing portion of the 10-1204489 And a containment device are provided. However, there is a problem in that a large amount of effluent oil flows out to the sea even in the process of blocking the pore or breakage site by using these devices.
