Inmarsat’s new satellite communications system promising faster, wider and global broadband services to ships has gone live with the claim it will be a game changer.
The new system, Fleet Xpress, aims to allow vessel operators to use business applications over the internet in much the same way as they would onshore at fixed costs.
Inmarsat is confident that the launch of Fleet Xpress will herald a new era of maritime communication, by engendering an influx of applications designed to increase ship efficiency, crew welfare and vessel security.
