Development & Implementation of a New Technology known as the "AEROS System"® (Airborne Robotic Oil Spill Recovery System) - Improving the State-of-the-Art of Offshore Oil Spill Emergency Response

Abstract

Abstract Our world is increasingly prone to environmental disasters with the public and governments worldwide demanding more effective solutions. Global Response Group "GRG" has proprietary technology that will contribute immensely to solving two serious global problems: large marine oil spills and global warming. GRG provides industry and governments the ability to quickly and effectively respond to large marine oil spills and to control destructive forest fires, (both on a global scale) using fleets of Lockheed L-100 and C-130 Hercules aircraft and crews integrated with GRG patented technology using satellite remote sensing/GPS/remote control/ telemetry systems. The AEROS® Airborne Robotic Oil Spill Recovery System Large offshore marine oil spills have never been effectively controlled and oil spill pollution remains a serious global problem. The ever-growing public concern for the environment will only escalate the costs and penalties of future spills. Therefore, GRG developed the AEROS® Robotic Oil Spill Recovery System, a truly effective and extremely rapid, robotic, satellite controlled oil spill containment and recovery system. AEROS© is demonstrated on the GRG web site: www.globalresponsegroup.com Global Response Group (GRG) has invested approximately $10 Million to date in the development of GRG's AEROS Technology. The AEROS system, as shown on the GRG web site and CD ROM presentation, demonstrates GRG's ability to rapidly contain, recover and recycle a marine oil spill of any size with much higher recovery efficiencies than ever achieved by other systems currently on the market. Potential customers for AEROS include: all oil companies and tanker fleet owners; the governments of all oil producing and consuming countries with a shoreline; and, all offshore drilling and production rigs. Other customers include: the insurance underwriters industry; the entire merchant marine shipping industry; and, all private and public oil spill response organizations. GRG'S AEROS System combines proven technology that has already demonstrated its durability and effectiveness with a unique robotic oil spill recovery vehicle (patented). Another unique feature of the system is GRG's ability to rapidly deploy AEROS using Lockheed L-100 and C-130 Hercules aircraft and to control AEROS oil spill recovery operations with satellites. Another significant operational capability of the AEROS System is its potential to fight malaria and dengue fever on a very large scale. GRG has developed a scientific business plan, called the "MEP" = Malaria Eradication Program. GRG's "MEP" has received indications of serious interest from the U.N. World Health Organization ("WHO"). Upon request, GRG can provide a detailed business plan for the "MEP" Malaria Eradication Program, as well as the credentials of the scientists who back this program.
