| Equipment and Technical Services (ETS) Inc. based in Houston, has made a major commitment to supporting its customers' deep water operations with the purchase of Sonardyne Wideband Compatt 5 transponders. ETS will now have the capability to supply operators in the Gulf of Mexico with high accuracy Long Base Line (LBL) positioning equipment for construction survey applications in water depths to 5,000 metres. |

The order has been placed during the recent Underwater Intervention exhibition in New Orleans (LA, USA). ETS Vice President Mike Knight said that future contracts will find ETS' clients operating in increasing water depths. By investing in appropriate acoustic positioning technology now, ETS will be ready to supply the rental market with the products it needs whatever the water depth.
