About
Agile Spray Response (ASR) offers a cost-effective aerial spray capability to protect marine environments from oil-spill pollution.
ASR’s industry leading Agile Convert Spray System (ACSS) is a state-of-the-art, comprehensively tested, modular air cargo palletized aerial spray system with both EASA and FAA approvals. Currently flown in cargo-converted Boeing 737 aircraft, ACSS can be installed to be mission capable in three hours. This flexibility allows the aircraft to be purposed in both roles: an optimal aerial dispersant spray asset and a revenue-earning air freight carrier.
Following rigorous testing, to ensure operational readiness and optimal spray capability, HM Government, through HM Coastguard, has ASR’s ACSS on-call for deployment 24-7-365.
The business is backed by the UK’s largest and most active growth capital investor, BGF. In the past nine years, BGF has invested over £2bn in UK based businesses, and is a champion of UK design, manufacturing and engineering.
Technical Partnership
ASR is working with Southampton-based SpillConsult a technical consultancy and training organisation, with global experience in emergency and oil spill response. SpillConsult’s multi-disciplinary team of consultants and associates has attended in excess of 200 major international incidents between them, including Deepwater Horizon and the Exxon Valdez.
Capability
Time is critical for oil-spill response. Key to this is having assets available and local to the incident. ASR’s ACSS provides customers a bespoke, in-country, aerial dispersant spray response.
ASR’s air cargo palletized capability enables ACSS to be deployed in multiple aircraft, negating any spray service disruption through scheduled or unforeseen aircraft maintenance. The ACSS can be serviced offline and causes no disruption to normal cargo services.
