RigNet Wins FPSO Analytics Job

Networking solutions provider RigNet said it has secures a multi-year agreement with Galoc Production Company (GPC) to deploy its machine learning-based analytics platform on board the floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel Rubicon Intrepid, currently on-station at the Galoc Field, offshore the Philippines at SC14C, Northwest Palawan.

RigNet said it will deploy its Intelie Live platform on its Managed Communication Service that includes the deployment of CyphreLink, the company’s encryption solution providing protection for data in transit.

“After a long evaluation process, we have identified Intelie Live as our preferred data analytics platform that satisfies our needs to improve production optimization and to support our goal towards digital transformation,” said Anthony Ferrer, Country Manager at GPC. “Today we capture a significant amount of data across various systems from the field, and with the deployment of Intelie LIVE, we will begin real-time analysis to generate beneficial actionable results.”

Jeffrey Sim, Chief Operating Officer at Rubicon Offshore, said, “In addition to their highly secure remote communication services, the deployment of their Intelie Live data analytics solution shall allow us to obtain the offshore operating parameters in real time and thus achieve optimum operational efficiency.”

For RigNet, the GPC award marks an ongoing expansion of RigNet’s portfolio of FPSO clients, including 10 FPSOs won in off-shore Brazil over the last nine months.

Steven Pickett, Chief Executive Officer and President of RigNet, said, “GPC’s decision to bundle Intelie Live with our Managed Communication Services along with our industry leading data protection solution, CyphreLink, demonstrates their commitment to digital transformation. We are also pleased to begin expanding into the production sector of the energy market with Intelie Live as it continues to be adopted across the energy value chain.”
