Trac Networks, a division of Trac-ID Systems AS, and Wavefield Inseis ASA has announced the successful implementation of a Stabilized DVB-RCS system on M/V Malene Ostevold in Seismic worldwide operation.
Trac Networks has in close co-operation with C2SAT delivered their first stabilized DVB-RCS satellite communication solution for use in seismic operations. The TracSAT service provided by Trac Networks will be used for global function.
The offshore industry's demand for asymmetric satellite services providing higher bandwidth ship-to-shore, transmitting large volumes of information between remote sites and headquarter, has a strong growth forecast.
"The Norwegian Oil and Gas industry is operating in many geographical regions and the need for well performing satellite communication systems, in different kinds of environments, is rapidly growing. This particular system is tailor made according to the customer's demand.
The key features making TracSAT the preferred solution are high reliability and attractive price", says Per Christiansen, Senior Vice President at Trac Networks.
"We are very satisfied with the performance of the TracSAT service. The solution excelled in the tests we performed. The C2SAT antenna combined with the complete solution provided by Trac Networks is a significant improvement for us, and we are happy we took on this service, and thereby improving the redundancy of our communication solutions" says Jan Vidar Nordstrand, IT Manager of Wavefield Inseis ASA.
