Allseas Buys Three ROVs06/09/2007 |

Special features for survey and pipeline inspection operations include camera booms and profilers that pop up from the vehicle's rear for deployment. Schilling's standard AutoTrack utility, which allows survey coordinates to control vehicle movement, will further facilitate survey operations. The three new UHD systems will join four others delivered in 2007 and early 2008. Read more about: ROVSupplier: Schilling Robotics More news from this supplier: Philip F.
