Oil and Gas Telecommunications

The oil and gas industry's needs for field communications services have increased significantly over the last 10 years. Complex operations and data requirements, coupled with highly collaborative work processes, often between multiple onshore and offshore locations, are increasingly reliant on robust telecommunications.

This event will tackle the challenges the oil and gas sector faces in some of the most dangerous, harsh, and remote environments on earth requiring a range of means to communicate with and draw information from platforms and land-based sites of all kinds from across the world.

Far removed from infrastructure and support teams, in extreme temperatures and unpredictable weather conditions, secure, high speed, and most importantly reliable communications are vital for the success of all involved.
