Oil & Gas and Scientific Applications

New and existing production platforms require secure, stable and expandable communications capabilities. As a pioneer of communications solutions for the Oil & Gas industry, SubCom maintains a team of individuals who are experts in this industry’s special requirements.

Advantages of Using Undersea Fiber Communications

Secure Communication Channels allow for:

• A dedicated communications path from rig to shore
• No dependency on other platforms

Significant capacity for future expansion, which means:

• Voice, data, and video services grow as your needs do
• Remote troubleshooting for efficient resolution
• Data from down-hole monitoring or seismic sensors for early warning

High Reliability to support ongoing communications:

• Submarine cable generally unaffected by significant weather events (hurricanes, typhoons, tsunamis)
• No communication downtime from antenna misalignments
• Rapid re-manning after storms
• Availability that is typically 99.999%
• Performance: SubCom’s systems have more than 660,000,000 amplifier pair operational hours over the last decade without outage affective service

Flexibility

• Ease of adding or re-prioritizing platforms
• Upgradeable and expandable
