TANO Corporation, New Orleans, La., has been awarded a contract from Boland Marine & Manufacturing Co., Inc., to install a TANO steam turbine automatic throttle system in the T-AK286 (FMB), a ship that Boland is converting from the merchant cargo vessel S.S. Mormacbay to a U.S. Navy ballistic missile carrier.

The system will be delivered in mid-1982, said Michael L. Steine, manager of marine marketing for TANO.

TANO designs and manufactures automation and control systems for ships, pipelines, process control, and energy management in industrial plants and commercial buildings. The company also designs and builds products for data communication systems and produces a line of intelligent terminals and micro-computers.
