[Via Satellite 07-06-2016] SpeedCast has been awarded a large, multi-year service agreement to provide managed satellite communications services by a leading global energy service company. For the undisclosed customer, SpeedCast will provide fully managed VSAT network services to 18 well-site locations throughout China. The contract is SpeedCast’s first energy customer in China, and third major services agreement with this particular customer in the past 12 months.

“Working side-by-side with the customer, we proposed a solution which has taken their operational and business requirements into consideration. The customer will be able to drive global network consistency and gain efficiencies as additional countries come under a common global managed service. The customer is now able to better manage resources and streamline operational processes by working with us across various countries and three continents.” said Keith Johnson, SVP of energy at SpeedCast.
