Every day, an innumerable number of vessels, including oil and gas rigs, rely heavily on satellite communications for vital and critical operations. When surrounded by nothing but the ocean, being able to connect and communicate to land becomes of the utmost importance. Vessels across the globe rely on uninterrupted internet availability for operational, safety and crew communication.

More importantly, they depend on robust and reliable applications to effectively conduct daily on-board/vessel projects, increase and optimize work productivity, maintain on-shore communications and efficiently conduct day-to-day on-shore business operations. These applications depend on effective satellite services, the lack of which would in turn affect both the safety of a vessel and its crew.
