Perry Slingsby Systems Sells Olympian 5 ROV to China
Perry Slingsby Systems (PSS) announces that a Chinese client has recently purchased an Olympian Class WROV. Depth rated to 3,500m, the Olympian 5 will interface with PSS’ previously supplied TMS, umbilical & electric heave compensated deployment winch and surface control system. The contract includes on site training and sea trials support in China, and the integration of the client’s ROV Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) and Virtual Monitoring System (VMS).
The Olympian 5 WROV will be used for survey tasks and to deploy tooling for sampling the seabed for methane hydrate deposits in the South China Sea. The DPS and VMS systems are provided by the client, and integrated in the ROV control system by Perry Slingsby Systems. The Olympian 5 is scheduled for delivery in May 2006.
