Nabors Industries, Harris CapRock signs agreement for VSAT Services to Iraq Land Sites
Harris CapRock Communications has signed a two-year contract to provide Nabors Industries with satellite communications for multiple land rigs and a base office in Iraq. Harris CapRock's Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) services is believed to provide Nabors personnel working on remote Iraq land drilling sites the ability to interconnect with the local base office and corporate headquarters.
As its operations continue to grow and expand across the globe, Nabors requires an integrated communications platform that is said to allow personnel to share critical information between their remote locations, regardless of what part of the world they may be in. A uniform communications solution through one partner provides Nabors personnel with a consistent user experience from one remote location to the next.
Under the terms of the agreement, Harris CapRock is supposed to provide data transmission, Internet connectivity and ongoing service and support to sites throughout Iraq, with the potential for additional VSAT units to be secured in the future. This is said to allow Nabors personnel to share critical information, such as well site data, to and from the land rigs and the base office, and ultimately send data back to the Nabors corporate office in Houston, Texas. Harris CapRock will leverage its self-owned and operated teleports in Houston and Aberdeen, Scotland, to land communications traffic.
