Overview
Shirakawa Research Industries is a small Japanese company that makes, among other things, small submersibles for research and industry. These are battery-powered vehicles which range in size from 5m to 10m long. Most rake a crew of one or two, and some can carry up to fifteen passengers. Many of the models have manipulator arms on them, and all are capable of reaching depths of up to 400m. All have universal docking collars on them so they can mate with the stations or any military or cargo submarine. Larger models have airlocks for divers. Petrochem uses the subs to ferry employees between surface support ships and the Submerged Drilling Project sites off the coasts of California and Alaska, to con-duct exterior repairs on the stations, and to connect and disconnect the station's oil umbilical hoses from the submarine tankers.
