Davis, California—June 4, 2007.  Schilling Robotics, a leading producer of remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs), will supply Phoenix International with three additional UHD™ ROV systems in 2007 and 2008.  All three systems will feature 200-shp power and will be rated for 4000-meter operation.  The systems will include Schilling’s extended  excursion XE™ TMS and are slated for use by Phoenix’s Houston-based Subsea Projects Group for deepwater operations.
