In early December, 2016, Singapore Dasin Shipping Pte Ltd. reached cooperation with Marinesat, and enabled 18 ships to access Marinesat’s global satcom network.
Marinesat provides comprehensive services such as: broadband satellite communications, IP telephony, remote video surveillance, and ship data monitoring.
Before choosing Marinesat, Dasin was using traditional satellite communication methods, i.e. telephone and email, which were inefficient and costly. These means have become outdated and no longer meet current needs, and more advanced technologies are bound to replace traditional technologies.
After using the service of Marinesat, the owner of Dasin stated, “By using Marinesat’s satellite broadband communication services, one can use mobile APPs to make voice calls, video calls, real-time video and photo transmissions, with crew members onboard, achieving more efficient and productive communications. Through the use of mobile phones, PC, the ship owner can master real-time situations for the entire fleet, along with the vessels’ position, heading, the condition of goods, etc. Marinesat achieves at-office, dynamic, real-time monitoring of the entire fleet with diversified, multidimensional ship management, and fleet scheduling has been greatly improved and more efficient.”
The crew of Dasin says, “Life at sea has been greatly improved and enriched using Marinesat with entertainment possibilities that are now accessible through the internet allowing the crew to chat with people on land, enjoy video games, music and news etc. Life is no longer so boring and monotonous.”
Dasin has been enjoying Marinesat services for more than one year and is very satisfied with Marinesat’s hardware, installation and after-sales service. It ensures the normal communications of ships and brings great convenience to ship owners. At the same time, it has also greatly reduced the cost of communication. Dasin, therefore, specifically wrote a letter of thanks to Marinesat.
In the past, ships used traditional communication methods, mainly with narrow-band transmission of “ship to shore” of telephone and email. These methods were simple, and the efficiency was low and expensive. Marinesat has transformed maritime communications providing customers with diversified marine information services. It will build a smart ocean service platform based on maritime broadband satellite communications and realize the “Internet + Shipping”, “Internet of Things” and “Ocean Big Data” to enhance the value of the marine industry.
Marinesat’s maritime satellite broadband communications meets the needs of shipowners’ daily office work and crews, and gives access to the internet and VolP telephony. Marinesat continually introduces more smart and diversified value added services such as: remote video surveillance, ship data monitoring, fleet management, meteorology services and telemedicine assistance maximizing its value to ship owners.
Marinesat has global leading satellite resources. The satellite network consists of more than 10 satellites that achieve seamless coverage across the world using the VSAT + Iridium binary system. It is one of the most stable, complete and cost effective civil satellite communication systems in the world.
The successful rising of Marinesat has created a huge effect within the Chinese market. It is reshaping traditional shipping communications and accelerating the intelligentization of ships. By May, 2018, Marinsat will have provided satcom services for more than 1000 commercial vessels and 1500 fishing vessels. Its customers include almost all the well known Chinese ship owners, and therefore occupy more than 80% of China’s maritime broadband satellite communication industry market share. After more than two years development, Marinesat has moved into the international market serving ship owners in Japan, Singapore and Europe.
Marinesat aims to use the latest technology to promote the development of the shipping industry and marine informatization, and it will create invisible value for ship owners by improving work efficiency and life quality.
