Highly Cost Effective – Clean Ocean Vessel
- The COV’s rapid recovery rate and large on-board storage result in low per barrel recovery cost.
- The COV’s simple design minimizes down time for repair and maintenance.
- A two-man crew can be easily trained and the COV vessel can operate long hours without interruption
- Construction of the first commercial Clean Ocean Vessel is progressing, with immanent launch anticipated
Design Versatility
- COV’S can be scaled to meet various application requirements (sizes range from 10 Ft., 20 Ft., 40 Ft., 80 Ft., 100 Ft. (references to length of vessel
- A standard 40-foot COV is 40 feet in length, 26 feet in width, and 12 feet in depth
- The following page has a 3D visual description of a COV
- Recently completed the engineering drawings for the Clean Ocean Vessel (COV) and ordered critical components to initiate construction on the COV
Recent Highlights
- Creating a new business division, through a subsidiary entity, to enter into the marine industry.
- Announced that Rick Carson, of Montreal, PQ, has agreed to join Robix as a Strategic Advisor.
- Announced that it intends to enter into an agreement with Rayco Steel Inc., wherein Rayco shall work on completion of engineering construction drawings for the anticipated construction of the first Clean Ocean Vessel.
How the COV compares to the competition:
- Rates of oil recovered and recovery-throughput efficiencies are noted as “oil rate of recovery†(ORR) and “recovery efficiency†(RE).
- The water surface lifting force generated by the COV’s patented contra-rotating drums acts in a suction or pumping manner that increases the ORR compared to conventional skimmer systems and the RE of the COV is in the 90-97% range. This is competitive with best in class 21st century technology in terms of ORR and RE.
- Further improvements to the ORR (in terms of gallons per minute) could easily catapult the COV to “top three†status, by increasing the surface area of the drums through design modifications without impairing the stability of the vessel which is inherent to the COV design.
- When our competitors’ skimmer systems meet waves above 18 inches, they are forced to suspend service. The COV operates in rough sea conditions (as high as 8 feet waves), significantly out-performing its competitors, and stands in a class of its own.

LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA–(Oct. 2, 2014) – Robix Alternative Fuels Inc. (“Robix” or the “Corporation”) (CSE:RZX) (FRANKFURT:R0X) announced today that the construction of the first commercial Clean Ocean Vessel (COV) is progressing, with a Q4 2014 target for launch. All materials have been received and construction of the COV is partially complete at Rayco Steel Ltd, of Sparwood, British Columbia.
Robix is launching a photo gallery on its website to show the progression of the COV construction. Please visit http://www.robixfuels.com/Robix%20photos/. Pictures will be uploaded periodically as construction progresses.
Working closely with the consulting marine engineers, architects and Transport Canada, Robix has made significant engineering improvements to the original COV designed and built in the 1990s. These enhancements will ensure compliance with 2014 certifications, and improve operating parameters of the COV. The 40ft COV is a twin-hull (catamaran) design with contra rotating drums capable of recovering oil from water in virtually any sea conditions. To date, approximately 50% of one hull has been fabricated with all the components cut and ready for assembly of the second hull. Fabrication of the drums is complete, and they are being prepared to be precision turned and balanced before assembly into the COV. Management is expecting to demonstrate the COV to key customers and officials on the west coast of Canada in Q4 2014.
“I am pleased with the progress to date on the COV, especially with the engineering improvements we have made that will enable us to make a more state-of-the-art product, compliant with 21st century certification requirements” commented Nathan Hansen President and CEO of Robix. “Working with Transport Canada throughout this design optimization and construction phase should enable us to easily meet and exceed global regulations for sea worthiness. When we demonstrate the COV in the coming quarter to our key potential customers, they will be viewing the latest oil recovery technology on the market. I expect the market demand for this product to be strong and we will be ready to take orders.”
About Robix:
The Corporation is an “industrial products/technology” company, offering to investors a unique opportunity to participate in a leading company in the business of ownership of patents, and their development from commercialization to worldwide expansion through various business arrangements.

LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA–(July 21, 2014) – Robix Alternative Fuels Inc. (“Robix” or the “Corporation”) (CSE:RZX) announced today that it has appointed Kevin Aylward as a strategic advisor to the Corporation. Mr. Aylward has significant experience and expertise in regulatory and environmental affairs, government relations, investor relations and media relations. Having served as Minister of the Environment with the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador under Premier Brian Tobin, Mr. Aylward brings a wealth of contacts and a comprehensive understanding of the environmental issues facing the country, especially as it pertains to coastal regions. During his tenure as Minister of the Environment, the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador cultivated an offshore oil and gas industry that balanced wealth generation for the Province with preservation and protection of the ocean and Newfoundland coast. His experience has enabled him to develop extensive expertise in negotiations/mediation both in the Public and Private Sector. In addition, Mr. Alyward is currently the President and CEO/Director of NWest Energy Corporation, a TSX-V listed company.
“As a successful businessman and advocate for the environment, Kevin is very much aware of the need to balance sustainability with the ever increasing demand for energy,” commented Nathan Hansen, President and CEO. “We are delighted to welcome him as an advisor to Robix and I look forward to working with him in the coming months as we prepare to unveil our first commercial COV unit. I believe Kevin’s guidance and experience will be invaluable to the Company at this stage of our development.”
In addition, Robix intends to settle outstanding indebtedness of $510,000 through the issuance of 680,000 common shares of the Corporation at a deemed price of $0.75 per common share (the “Debt Settlement”). The common shares issued in connection with the Debt Settlement will be subject to a four month hold period.
