ITC Global, a leading provider of satellite communications to remote and harsh environments, announced that it has been selected by Rever Offshore for a contract to ensure seamless business communications and crew welfare applications across its fleet of vessels. The three-year agreement will establish VSAT and supporting 4G LTE coverage for Rever’s three offshore support vessels the Sapphire, Topaz and Polaris  operating throughout the North Sea.

The contracted service scope includes delivery of VSAT and 4G LTE capabilities, as well as crew welfare connectivity via ITC Global’s Crew LIVE solution.

The solution provides high-availability service supplemented with 4G LTE coverage for corporate communications within applicable areas.

“We are pleased to work with Rever Offshore in supporting their vessel fleet with the connectivity capabilities necessary for successful operations,” said Richard Elson, Vice President, Global Sales at ITC Global. “Of significance in this award selection was the success of Rever’s extensive audit review across ITC Global’s systems and processes, of which those findings solidified our ability to effectively deliver quality connectivity guided by high standards of service.
