CETel awarded three-year contract in Oil & Gas sector

September 2017

CETel was awarded a three-year contract in the Oil & Gas industry for a company operating in the EMEA region. Once more, CETel demonstrates its ability for smart, efficient and economic network design and thereby winning this deal in a competitive Middle Eastern and African market.

CETel engineers designed a hybrid network consisting of SCPC and meshed connections to deliver seamless connectivity to exploration and production sites, utilizing C-Band capacity in conjunction with a 9m antenna on CETel Teleport in Germany. The network carries voice and data applications and ads up to 45 Mbps in total. To achieve highest satellite bandwidth optimization, PCMA (paired carrier multiple access) technology is applied. The agreement also includes optimizing the existing network to fit the new network design and technology. Therefore, investments in satellite communications hard- and software are necessary, and are performed through CETel’s experienced field service providers. After the implementation the customer will benefit from a fully-managed end-to-end communications network that will be monitored and supported from CETel NOC operating 365/24/7.

Guido Neumann, Managing Director of CETel states, “Securing another major deal in the energy sector demonstrates CETel’s strong capabilities in finding the best fit for individual customer requirements. In communications network design, the one-fits-all approach is often applied but many times not the best. Finding the very best fit independent from any limitations with regards to suppliers and operators is our key to success.”
