VANCOUVER, Nov. 15 /CNW/ - Offshore Systems International Ltd. (TSX: OSI /OTCBB: OFSYF) has been awarded a $1.2 million contract to supply the Royal Australian Navy with immediate delivery of OSI's most advanced electronic warship navigation systems ('WECDIS').

"This is another demonstration of the revenue potential of follow-on business with key customers," said Ken Kirkpatrick, President and CEO of OSI. "In the last month alone, we have secured approximately $2.5 million in additional orders from the Royal Australian Navy; a clear indication of the power of having satisfied customers."
