Zusammenfassung:	Apparatus and methods for conveying a flow of oil-containing liquid into an oil separation skim tank, and a skim tank incorporating such apparatus and methods, are disclosed. One such apparatus includes at least one diffuser, the diffuser defining an intake opening configured to receive the flow of oil-containing liquid and an exhaust opening configured to convey the flow of oil-containing liquid into the skim tank. The diffuser is configured to cause the flow of oil-containing liquid to have a greater horizontal width at the exhaust opening than at the intake opening, while minimizing vertical divergence of the flow at the exhaust opening. Description dun appareil et de méthodes de transport dun flux de liquide contenant de lhuile dans un réservoir de pompage de séparation dhuile et un réservoir de pompage les intégrant. Un tel appareil comprend au moins un diffuseur définissant une ouverture dentrée configurée pour recevoir le flux de liquide contenant de lhuile et une ouverture dévacuation configurée pour transporter le flux de liquide contenant de lhuile dans le réservoir de pompage. Le diffuseur est configuré pour amener le flux de liquide contenant de lhuile à avoir une largeur horizontale plus importante à louverture dévacuation quà louverture dentrée, tout en minimisant la divergence verticale du flux à louverture dévacuation.
