Momentum, a leading provider of enterprise connectivity solutions in remote areas throughout North and South America, today announced an enhanced agreement that will enable Momentum to use OneWeb’s high-speed, low-latency satellite fleet, on top of Eutelsat’s ADVANCE global connectivity solution.


This partnership will help tobring high-performance communications services to Oil & Gas projects and facilities across Canada, and the U.S. Momentum is already a customer of Eutelsat, who, consequently, will be distributing OneWeb’s LEO satellite communications services along with its existing connectivity products in a number of key markets. By leveraging OneWeb’s trusted and stable global LEO satellite network, Momentum’s oil & gas customers will be able to remotely control, monitor, manage and secure critical infrastructure at multiple site locations in real time. Momentum’s broad solution-set is a great fit for clients who require the ability to connect multiple critical sites, enabling them to reach any remote area and implement an available and managed service.

Integrating satellites services from Eutelsat and OneWeb, Momentum will deliver a full suite of true enterprise business network connectivity solutions to its clients, providing capacity, high-speed, low-latency services with quick setup and development, support structures and services in place on the backend. By gaining access to stable and fast download and upload speeds, along with low latency, remote Oil & Gas clients can trust that critical business data is being safely and reliably transferred to and from their head offices.

Brad Kossowan, Chief Operating Officer of Momentum, commented: “Our enhanced partnership with Eutelsat and OneWeb is a game-changer for oil & gas operators in remote locations. It supports the growing demand for real-time data, monitoring and managing operations on site or remote, crew communications and wellness. Eutelsat’s robust offer for high-end connectivity solutions, paired with OneWeb’s global LEO constellation is the perfect complement to our enterprise connectivity services.”

Cyril Dujardin, General Manager Connectivity Business Unit of Eutelsat, said: “Through our partnership with OneWeb, we are proud to collaborate and provide Momentum with new, advanced connectivity solutions. With this hybrid approach we can give clients tailor-made, dynamic and high-performance communication services, leveraging our industry experience know-how and providing end-to-end support.”

Carole Plessy, VP Global Maritime & Europe Region of OneWeb, commented: “We are excited to partner with Momentum, who brings industry-leading experience that will enable OneWeb to expand our capabilities within the energy sector. By bringing together our complementary services, we’ll bring next-generation connectivity to oil & gas customers across North America.”

Intellian Technologies and Marlink have extended their strategic alliance for an additional five year. Intellian is set to persist in providing Marlink’s end users with hybrid connectivity terminals. This collaboration will encompass the co-development of products for hybrid connectivity, utilizing Geostationary Orbit (GEO), Medium-Earth Orbit (MEO), and Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) networks. Additionally, Marlink will maintain access to necessary capacity.
This edition dives into the evolving world of satellite technology and its synergy with modern communication networks, highlighting key developments and challenges. Seraphim opens the discussion with a detailed look at the global race in satellite connectivity, emphasizing its impact on the mobile phone industry. Astrocast then explores the economic aspects of Satellite IoT, underlining its growing importance in global connectivity.
Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), including satellite and related platforms, amplify the reach of 5G IoT, providing connectivity in remote or disaster-hit areas. With potential applications ranging from remote industrial monitoring to precision farming, the combination of 5G and IoT is ushering in a new era of digital transformation. Yet, challenges like scalability, energy efficiency, and security remain to be addressed, and innovations in edge computing, AI, and advanced communication technologies pave the way forward.
Organizations globally are tapping into the vast potential of the Operational IoT market, from transforming weather monitoring in remote mines to ensuring safe drinking water in African communities. The real game-changer is the integration of reliable, cost-effective satellite connections, predicted to rise to tens of millions by 2030. These connections make it possible to transmit data periodically rather than in real-time, reducing costs and meeting the specific needs of industries like agriculture, shipping, and environmental monitoring. The challenge for Systems Integrators (SIs) is to ensure their Satellite IoT deployments are not only technologically viable but also commercially successful. Ensuring robust satellite coverage, cost-effective deployment, and prolonged battery life are essential to this business case. Forward-thinking SIs have already started their journeys, optimizing Satellite IoT solutions, proving its business worth, and preparing for large-scale deployments.
The emergence of 5G New Radio NTN is set to revolutionize the satellite communication market by bridging the gap between terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks. Offering improved speeds, lower latency, and enhanced reliability, 5G NR unlocks new transformative use cases from smart cities to augmented reality. With 5G NR’s potential to beam signals from space, satellite communication will gain a competitive edge, providing powerful, seamless connectivity globally. Additionally, the unification of 5G standardization for both types of technologies promises heightened interoperability, allowing users to switch between networks effortlessly. This synergy presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in both sectors, even as technical challenges persist.
The space industry should reach $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2040, according to a report by Citibank analysts. At the same time, a recent report from Inmarsat and Globant estimates the world could reach net zero up to ten years ahead of the 2050 target if industries make the most of existing and emerging space-based satellite technology. Suffice to say, space can offer an array of solutions for sustainability, security and connectivity. Mobile communications have evolved from generation to generation, adding better capabilities, and the trend is far from being over. The sixth generation is already in the making, and the core driving factors for 6G will revolve around enhancing human communication, including immersive experience, telepresence, multimodal collaboration and interaction. 6G will also aim to enhance machine communication, with the focus on autonomous machines and vehicles capable of sensing their surrounding environment in real time (network as a sensor). This article expands on how small satellites will augment the future of communications that starts already today.
