The invention discloses an autonomous cruise and water-surface spilled oil recovery robot which comprises an electric ship with an enclosed type ship body, wherein spilled oil recovery systems are fixedly arranged on external walls on the two sides of the electric ship; each spilled oil recovery system comprises oil absorption devices connected together in parallel; oil conduits are arranged in the middles of the oil absorption devices; output ends of the oil conduits are connected with manifold plates; the manifold plates are connected with oil storage tanks arranged in the electric ship by self-priming pumps; a solar cell panel is spread on the upper surface the electric ship; an output end of the solar cell panel is connected with a driving motor of the electric ship to drive the electric ship to travel; a detection device is arranged at a bow part of the electric ship; and an autonomous cruise control system is arranged in the electric ship. With the adoption of the autonomous cruise and water-surface spilled oil recovery robot, autonomous recovery on spilled oil on a random water area on the condition of unmanned operation, autonomous cruise, solar power automation charging for continuous voyage, wireless data transmission and long distance supervision are realized, so that the personal safety of staff is ensured, and the labor cost is lowered.
