Isn't this what you are referring to?
If you are not going to update the records, why lock them?

Hi, Riyaj,
Could you post your screen shot that shows select * from t1 skip locked? What
version of Oracle are you using? Mine is 8.1.6 Enterprise Ed:
SQL> select * from test skip locked;
select * from test skip locked
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
SQL> select * from test skip lock;
select * from test skip lock
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
SQL> desc test
Name Null? Type

If you want to show only rows that are locked then you could use this
undocumented feature: 'select * from t1 skip locked'. This will skip all the
rows that have been locked.
Thanks
