RigNet Technology Seminar

Over 25 energy companies gathered in the Viking Stadion in Stavanger for RigNet's latest Technology Seminar, an event which explored the innovative communication technologies being deployed by RigNet in the offshore sector today.  

The free half-day event was a blend of case study presentations, interactive product demonstrations and partner presentations. Designed to give attendees the opportunity to learn how their peers are using communication technology, the seminar presented a number of case studies that illustrated recent solutions for clients StatoilHydro, WoodGroup and Talisman. 

A live demonstration of RigNet's "Remote View EX" solution, an end-to-end managed service which allows users to visually exchange critical information to assess and resolve issues in real time, was also presented.
