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.”

Satellite constellations are advanced networks of strategically placed satellites designed to offer extensive global coverage, overcoming the limitations of single satellite systems. They’re pivotal in global communications, particularly in the era of 5G, enabling high-speed, low-latency connections. Different constellations operate at varying altitudes – Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO), Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) – each with unique benefits and challenges. As 5G emerges, these constellations will not only provide ultra-fast connectivity but will also bridge the digital divide, ensuring all corners of the world have access. Companies like SpaceX’s Starlink and Amazon’s Project Kuiper are pioneering efforts in this realm. However, while the opportunities are vast, challenges like interference management, space debris, and regulatory hurdles remain.
The emergence of 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) presents a revolutionary step in global digital connectivity, but it brings with it intricate regulatory and policy challenges. These directives play a pivotal role, influencing the design, services, and the very integrity of these networks. Key issues range from spectrum allocation and licensing to operational standards and the potential cyber threats these networks might face. Given the global nature of 5G NTN, coordinating regulations across international boundaries becomes paramount, as does addressing the growing concerns of space debris. Moreover, with the vast amount of data these networks handle, policies ensuring data privacy and cybersecurity are of utmost importance. Ultimately, understanding and navigating this complex regulatory landscape is crucial for the successful deployment and operation of 5G NTN.
5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) promise a new horizon in global communication with high-speed, low-latency features. Yet, as they usher in this new era, they also introduce significant security and privacy challenges. Key vulnerabilities, such as signal jamming, spoofing, and eavesdropping, pose risks to data integrity and user privacy. Addressing these threats demands a layered approach, utilizing advanced cryptographic methods, intrusion detection systems, and innovative AI/ML techniques. As we navigate the future of 5G NTN, it’s crucial to prioritize user security and privacy, balancing the immense potential of these networks with the inherent risks they present.
From SpaceX’s Starlink providing unprecedented internet access, to the synergistic fusion of Eutelsat and OneWeb, and the ambitious visions of Amazon’s Project Kuiper, each initiative is redefining what is possible in global connectivity. Companies like SES, Viasat, Intelsat, Telesat, and Iridium continue to push the boundaries of satellite communication, while EchoStar and Boeing Satellites exemplify the fusion of legacy and innovation.
Explore the groundbreaking partnership between Tele2 and Nokia as they empower AirForestry with an advanced 5G private wireless network. This pioneering project, utilizing electric harvester drones for sustainable forest management, showcases the transformative impact of 5G technology in remote forest thinning and harvesting. Discover how this initiative leads to enhanced environmental sustainability and operational efficiency in the forestry industry.
Eutelsat OneWeb confirmed that its low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation has successfully connected to a 5G mobile network, supporting 5G QoS levels for the first time. This milestone brings super-fast mobile phone connectivity to remote and rural areas one step closer.
