CapRock
In a time where energy exploration is moving into newly discovered, isolated regions and the technical workforce is continuing to tighten, the need to keep remote sites connected with headquarters becomes even more essential. CapRock's satellite solutions provide tools that enable the oil and gas industry to operate more efficiently in today's environment.
CapRock’s solutions enable real-time drilling applications
Real-Time Applications: VSAT communications allow subject-matter experts working from headquarters and regional offices to be virtually connected to the operations of remote locations. Applications such as real-time streaming well data and video inspection of underwater pipelines can be viewed for multiple drill sites without having to travel to each location. These experts can then collaborate with on-site engineers to analyze the data, resulting in faster and better decisions.
Deep Oil and Gas Experience: Since pioneering some of the first commercial VSAT services in the Gulf of Mexico, CapRock has been the global satellite communications leader serving the energy industry. CapRock serves the communications needs of rig owners, service companies and operators working on drilling rigs and production platforms. Whether you need to equip your drilling fleet with the latest in IP communication solutions or your service company requires temporary Internet access while onboard a rig, CapRock has a program to meet your specific situation.
