Satellite Interference? The Technology & Tools for Oil & Gas Operations

Satellite services are widely used by the commercial sector and especially so for the Oil & Gas Industries. Reliance on detecting minute signals in a fog of radio frequency "noise" interference, either unintended or deliberate, is a concern to maintaining assured and reliable communications links to all. This Masterclass describes the technology and tools used to mitigate interference through commercial sector initiatives and explore how interference is managed and reduced.

Presenters from the IRG, Inmarsat SAT Corporation and VeriSat will look at the challenges posed by this important issue, identify current and potential solutions, describe what is being done within the satellite community to ensure that robust satellite communications can be sustained as services rapidly expand.
