Signalhorn—Tying In Offshore Energy Service Vessels (Comms)


[SatNews] Signalhorn has been selected for the operation and management of a pan-African network for one of the world’s leading providers of offshore service vessels to the global energy industry.

Under the terms of the three-year contract extension, Signalhorn will provide a mission-critical, multi-megabit communications network to its customer’s key African locations in Angola, Nigeria and Cameroon. The contract renewal builds upon Signalhorn’s four-year relationship delivering satellite and terrestrial links for this customer, and reinforces Signalhorn’s commitment to customer care, quality assurance and delivering trusted networks.

“With 40 years of experience providing hybrid communication solutions, we are able to serve this and other customers who are operating in ever more remote, deeper and increasingly hostile environments to meet the world’s energy demand,” said Gary Bray, Signalhorn Vice President, Oil & Gas sales. “Signalhorn’s continually growing global communications footprint enables us to deliver trusted networks for connectivity and performance.”

Signalhorn delivers the service to the customer’s network across the African continent through regional points of presence and its teleports located at technical centers in Germany and Switzerland. Signalhorn’s service includes communications for the company’s core networks, crew welfare, contractors, and regulatory and safety requirements.
