Just thought I would take the opportunity and this is probably the best place, to tell you all, it’s time for me to move onto pastures new. After almost 10 years in Shipping, I am moving into a more "office" based role within BP. I remain with...
With VSAT costs dropping, its an extremely difficult one to answer.
Forgetting throughput and costs for a minute...if you want quick, easy and an almost 100% global coverage solution, then Inmarsat is probably the key winner. Great reviews and mos...
Totally agree with you. As I said a few reply's above, it all comes down to customer demands, budget etc.

As an independent maritime IT consultant I am often asked about anti-virus solutions (click www.itatsea.net for more details ;) )
In my experience it really depends on the clients requirements. Quite often they would like a solution that they can...

I'm sure you are a good engineer, but on the sales side, you should know that the last thing we want is precisely to offer the same product as our competitor which you mention. The choice was made after consulting what was available in the market ...

Hope everything goes well there at the other side of Atlantic.
Sorry to bother you with rumors, but there are certain people that spreading a rumor that you in BP are planning to replace your VSAT with FBB.
Is that anywhere near to the truth?

Alasthair Saunders said… - Good afternoon Wasim
I am gathering some information regarding C and Ku band VSAT and have a query regarding the FCC requirements for Maritime VSAT. I figured as you have implemented many VSAT installations with BP you would have experience / knowledge of this.
The document from the link below refers to various requirements to installations on vessels operating around the US. In particular it states that C-Band installations on vessels must not transmit with 200 Km from the shore and Ku-band installations must not transmit within 125 Km from the shore.
http://wireless.fcc.gov/spectrum/proceeding_details.htm?proid=325
Please can you confirm that this is correct and if so is there a system in place to automatically shut down the onboard systems when these limits are reached? Are you also aware of restrictions that may exist in other parts of the world?
Thanks and regards

Ravi Kiran Sethi said… - Hello,
Its been really interesting to read your comments on Marine+IT personnel. My feeling is that the potential of the such ppl is still not realized and the kind of asset they can be to this industry.....
btw i left the high seas as marine engineer and now into marine software sales/implementation/support.
Would be nice to hear from you.
Regards
Ravi Kiran
