(Houston May 12th, 2020) After three years of cooperation, one of Tampnet’s deepwater clients in the GoM has chosen the company to deliver carrier grade connectivity services to four additional fixed production assets and one FPSO. The contract also covers a renewal on three existing fixed producing assets.
The client, who wishes to remain unnamed, highlights Tampnet’s investments, game changing technology and build-out to their growing GoM portfolio as the reasons for the contract extension, as well as the high quality of service received to date.
We are extremely proud that one of the largest oil and gas producers in the Gulf of Mexico has chosen us to be their sole supplier of telecommunications. This contract extension is further evidence of our market leading position across multiple geographies in servicing offshore assets.
Trygve Hagevik, Tampnet CCO.
