Bulldog Moves Closer to Receiving Significant Order For
New Tanker BOSSTM System to Protect Oil Tankers in The Middle East
Recent Deployment by Energy Control Systems
Represents Final Step Before Purchase
RICHMOND, British Columbia, Canada, June 28, 2004 - Bulldog Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: BLLD) announced today that it has completed development, in conjunction with Energy Control Systems of Saudi Arabia, of the Bulldog Tanker BOSSTM, a triple-redundant electronic security system that simultaneously monitors internal fluid levels and all ingress and egress points on tanker trucks. The Tanker BOSSTM is expected to protect oil tankers, which have increasingly become vulnerable to terrorism. The Tanker BOSSTM was recently deployed in Saudi Arabia, which is the final step prior to receiving what Bulldog expects may be a significant purchase order.*
"The demand for our solutions in the Middle East has never been greater," said John Cockburn, Bulldog Technologies' CEO. "The recent acts of terrorism, combined with soaring energy prices, making the energy industry more vulnerable to attack than it has ever been before. Bulldog is the first company to offer a comprehensive solution to monitor and protect the transportation of this valuable commodity. Our deployment demonstrates that Bulldog is capable of such a task."
The Bulldog Tanker BOSSTM interfaces to all existing Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) Systems (i.e. GPS/Satellite/Cellular Net Systems). The Tanker BOSSTM System is completely scalable and can be used with any quantity and combination of level, flow and tamper sensor units to match the exact requirement of the application. It can also be used to replace expensive fuel level management systems.
The Tanker BOSSTM System consists of an in-truck control unit, the RP-400 and three types of sensor units, collectively known as the RB-400. The RP-400 monitors any quantity and combination of sensors, without the need for extensive customization. It contains advanced motion and accelerometer based intelligence to compensate for differential fuel levels during vehicle motion. The RP-400 easily interfaces with all existing GPS/vehicle tracking systems via a digital interconnect and supports network arming and disarming, providing operations management complete control over all fuel movement.
Energy Control Systems, a leader in the development and implementation of petroleum related management and control technology, previously awarded Bulldog a development contract for a security system to prevent the theft and tampering with petroleum products while being transported in medium and heavy duty trucks.
The security system was designed specifically for petroleum tanker trucks, and will be marketed as the Bulldog Tanker BOSSTM (RB-400). The RB-400 will integrate with Bulldog's sensor monitoring security platform and AVL software. The security system will combine industry leading internet based AVL services, and the world's first real time satellite based remotely monitored security system.
