Submar’s Alternative Response Technology for the BP Horizon Incident
Submar was recently notified that its submission of an Alternative Response Technology has been escalated for further technical review (Stage 3) by BP subject matter experts.

A recent article by Bob Warren with the Times-Picayune stated that “BP has embarked on an idea “triage” program of which they have received 8,000+ ideas. Of the 8,000+ ideas only 235 has made it through the triage to “stage 3,” which is a final assessment by the BP team of engineers and scientists before field-testing.”
