This report is a review of research submersible vehicles and other marine technologies in Siberia and The Russian Far East. It complements a 1994 WTEC report covering submersible technologies in Urkraine and European Russia. The panel found that two institutions in Vladivostok have extensive developments and experience in operating remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). In particular, two prototype AUVs developed by the Institute of Marine Technology Problems (IMTP) are rated at 6000 meters operating depth, one of which was logged 160 working dive missions greater than 4000 meters. The WTEC panelists concluded that IMTP had more AUV operating experience than all U.S. programs combined.
