NSR’s Oil and Gas via Satellite, 2nd Edition continues where the first edition left off and answers fundamental questions pertaining to the Oil and Gas market:

• How many VSAT and MSS units are active in upstream and midstream Oil and Gas markets, and where are they located?
• What is the bandwidth demand for C-, Ku-, and HTS VSAT services?
• Who are the main market players, and which segments matter?
• What are the revenues generated by VSAT and MSS services in the Oil and Gas sector?
• Where are the long term Oil and Gas growth opportunities for satellite bandwidth, service and equipment?

To answer these questions, NSR dives deep into the Oil and Gas ecosystem, providing both qualitative analysis and quantitative evidence to provide actionable intelligence on the latest developments.  NSR explores the major addressable markets within the Exploration & Production and Distribution sectors to assess their importance to market players.  Oil and Gas via Satellite, 2nd Edition provides a bottom-line view on in-service units and service revenues for VSAT and MSS offerings, and bandwidth demand for C-, Ku-, and HTS services through 2021.

New in this Edition: Improved Segmentation

Oil and Gas via Satellite, 2nd Edition provides a refined geographical picture of Offshore Oil and Gas satellite usage.  The report provides detailed views on the Offshore Oil and Gas ecosystem – covering Jack-up rigs off the coast of North America to Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessels in the South China Sea to Seismic Survey Vessels off the coast of Greenland – in addition to continued coverage of the Onshore E&P, and Distribution segments. NSR offers detailed insights into the Offshore Exploration & Production and Distribution markets by providing band-by-band insights for both Onshore and Offshore segments.

Key Report Features

Oil and Gas via Satellite, 2nd Edition goes beyond the fundamentals, to dive into how consolidation is impacting the market, if is there a market for high throughput satellite (HTS) services, where regulations are changing communications requirements, and if real-time data results in more service revenues.  NSR provides an industry-leading bottom-line view on the Oil and Gas sector in Oil and Gas via Satellite, 2nd Edition.
