SC Group Selects Thaicom to Strengthen Fleet Operations

Thaicom and its distributor Ship Expert Technology have signed an agreement with SC Group to collaborate on the joint development of a maritime communication network service. SC Group’s fleet of more than 30 offshore support vessels will be equipped with the new Nava service to enhance fleet operations and optimize operational efficiency.

The fleet management solution will be powered by the Thaicom Nava Fiber-to-the-Ship (FTTS) platform which is able to support very high data rates and provide constantly high bandwidth for operational efficiency with wide area satellite coverage across Asia Pacific. Nava FTTS also helps crew keep connected and incorporates an L-band backup solution.

Nava is Thaicom’s new maritime broadband service platform for ship and offshore operators in Asia. With the launch of the service earlier this year, Thaicom is expanding its broadband service platform to support the maritime industry’s digital transformation. Nava helps the maritime industry to meet the increasing data demand at sea, enables efficient vessel operations, and connects crew and passengers to high-speed internet anywhere and anytime.
