NSSLGlobal, the global independent SATCOM, and IT solutions provider has announced a new 3-year contract with MOL LNG Transport (Europe) Ltd, which includes an enhanced airtime package, and crew entertainment streaming service alongside the rollout of its new Cyber and IT managed services.
Future-proof fleet technology
This far-reaching contract will also see NSSLGlobal partner with MOL to trial Low Earth Orbit (LEO) services to further enhance and future-proof the fleet’s technology and capabilities.
The contract will see NSSLGlobal providing increased bandwidth speeds to meet MOL’s growing demands for the digitalisation of its operations as well as to meet crew welfare requirements using its latest DVBS2X SatLink technology.
SMART@SEA solution
The service uses NSSLGlobal’s SatLink hub technology to deliver a multi-broadcast channel
The onboard SMART@SEA solution provided by NSSLGlobal enables MOL to select additional Value-Added Services. To enable crew retention, this includes a managed Wi-Fi hotspot capability for crew alongside NSSLGlobal’s latest info/entertainment service, CrewVision, which provides on-demand access to a wide variety of movies, TV dramas, sports, documentaries, and daily world news in various languages.
The service uses NSSLGlobal’s SatLink hub technology to deliver a multi-broadcast channel over its global VSAT network thereby providing a separate entertainment channel to the vessels’ internet.
Smart Gold Plan
For operations, MOL has selected NSSLGlobal’s Smart Gold Plan, which will provide Vessel Security Services, IT Service Management, and a 24/7 SOC (Security Operations Centre), all wrapped up in a Cyber Security SMART Support package.
The new packages of SMART Cyber and IT managed services ensure that NSSLGlobal’s customers can reduce their IT costs, gain access to 24/7 IT resources to supplement their in-house IT departments, and, most importantly, remain IMO cyber risk compliant and cyber protected at sea.
