TORONTO, Apr 3, 2009 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) -- FOX | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Online System Provides Daily Measurements of Pipeline Integrity

TSX Venture Exchange symbol: FOX

TORONTO, April 3 /CNW Telbec/ - Fiber Optic Systems Technology, Inc. ("FOX- TEK"), (TSX-V: FOX), a developer and manufacturer of patented non-intrusive sensing systems, today announced the sale of a welded PinPoint Internal Corrosion Monitoring System to a global integrated oil and gas client. The recently installed system is monitoring the integrity of a high pressure oil pipeline section which showed multiple internal corrosion pits during a prior routine in-line inspection. This order adds to one of the several PinPoint installations done by FOX-TEK in the Alberta region.

Sam Cauchi, Director of Sales for North America said, "Our client tells us that this FOX-TEK PinPoint system plays an important role in allowing them to operate this pipeline section at maximum capacity while ensuring the safety of the public at the same time. The client required a quick turnaround from order to installation and FOX-TEK delivered by completing all the work within two weeks of receiving "go-ahead" from the client. The locations are in high risk areas, and the pipeline regulators required a reliable integrity management plan be in place during operations. As an added benefit, our client will have 24/7 access to the status of their pipeline securely over the internet, thanks to our new DMAT Web online data display".

FOX-TEK also announced that Sean Carr was formally appointed the President & CFO of FOX-TEK by the Board of Directors.
