Oil & Gas Solutions - High Performance Networks for Business-critical Operations
In today's oil and gas market, investing in a high-performance communications network that
can scale with a growing business has become a critical requirement. With a comprehensive
strategy to keep headquarters connected to exploration, production and drilling operations, oil
& gas companies can ensure operational integrity, protect personnel and property, and provide
seamless coverage to sites across the globe.
ITC Global has the industry experience and global resources
necessary to develop a strategic communications plan for your
business. We design, engineer and deploy networks that are
highly reliable and accessible. Our solutions are customized to
meet your unique requirements and enable business growth.
To ensure the highest performance and quality, we actively
monitor and support each customer network.
With more than 25 satellite beam footprints across nine
different teleports, ITC Global delivers the global reach and
flexibility necessary to support your dynamic operations.
We can provide coverage for customers operating in both
single discrete regions or across multiple regions with vessels
in transit between. Wherever you need access to high-quality
communications, we can deliver.
Assessing Unique Customer Requirements
We begin with a comprehensive assessment of your existing
communications infrastructure to identify needs and performance
gaps. With an understanding of your unique requirements, we then
evaluate which communications modes - satellite, wireless or
terrestrial - are best suited to provide reliable connectivity
for each segment of your overall network. The result is a fully optimized
design that delivers a consistent quality of service
across your global operations.
An important component of this stage is a thorough financial
analysis, allowing us to assess the total cost of ownership
and ROI to ensure that any new investments are strategic
and leverage existing infrastructure as much as possible. We
understand that today's communications networks are not
static, so we also review a company's future business plans to
ensure that the network can scale to accommodate growth.
Engineering & Managing a Total Solution
Once your network is designed, ITC Global's experienced
field personnel will engineer and implement your corporate
WAN from the ground up, ensuring your VSAT links provide
highly available, secure connectivity for critical applications.
Our engineers have honed their VSAT experience through
network deployments in more than 55 countries. They can also
integrate these optimized VSAT networks with your voice and
data systems to deliver uniform performance from corporate
headquarters to offshore rig.
As part of our comprehensive solution, ITC Global offers
network management services that can be tailored to fit your
organization's needs. Using our 24/7/365 network operations
center (NOC) and local technicians, we can partner with
customers to deliver a fully-managed, end-to-end service,
including customer-owned equipment, that meets specified
service level agreements (SLAs).
Vigilant Network Management
Our robust monitoring systems give us visibility into the network and enable our skilled NOC staff
to proactively monitor latency, throughput, packet loss and utilization. Oil & gas companies have
real-time access to this same visibility through our customer portal, where they can examine
bandwidth utilization and error reports for every site, router/switch interface, and VLAN.
We also provide a single point of contact for initiating and prioritizing trouble tickets. Because
we deploy out-of-band management on all our stabilized antenna systems, we can remotely
correct most problems that occur. Our locally deployed field personnel provide quick
response to issues that require onsite support.
ITC Global: An Industry Innovator
ITC Global provides oil & gas customers with a total communications solution. We have more
than 15 years of experience designing, building, optimizing and supporting VSAT-based
communications networks for global customers. We are a technology leader and innovator,
collaborating with partners such as iDirect, SeaTel, and Riverbed to develop cutting-edge solutions.
We currently own and operate nearly 1,200 iDirect Evolution satellite routers, both onshore
and offshore - the largest deployment in the oil & gas sector. This extensive expertise
gives us a deep understanding of the platform's capabilities and enables us to leverage its
advanced coding and modulation techniques to deliver performance improvements for
customers operating in extreme onshore and offshore environments.
ITC Global also manages one of the largest satellite bandwidth pools in the industry: more
than 500 MHz of capacity in Ku and C bands. Customers benefit from our buying power - purchasing bandwidth in large quantities helps drive down costs per megahertz, allowing
ITC to offer the best combination of technology and affordability. And when you need to
grow your communications links to accommodate new sites - either from exploration or
acquisition - our networks have the headroom to accommodate increased bandwidth demand.
Partnering with ITC Global provides oil & gas companies with the highly reliable, global connectivity
they need to maintain visibility into and control of their remote operations. Our scalable solutions
connect remote sites in distant corners of the world while maintaining a consistent user experience
across an enterprise. Our robust network monitoring and in-country offices, field personnel,
and inventory deliver quick resolution should an issue occur. ITC Global turns your communications
spend into a strategic investment that grows your business and helps you capture new market share.
