the delivery to the Norwegian Oil & Gas offshore market.
The
order refers to C2SAT's Stabilised VSAT model C2SAT 1.2m Ku.
C2SAT and

satellite communication solution in a larger tender. Trac provides the TracSAT

of data in ship-to-shore applications.
"C2SAT has been in the pole
position in this tender since autumn 2007. I am very pleased to proceed to the
next level in this deal", says Mr. Fredrik Hanell, CEO, C2SAT
Group.
"The Norwegian Oil & Gas industry is operating in many
geographical regions and the need for satellite communication systems which
maintain their high performance in different kinds of harsh environments is
rapidly growing. This particular project has been planned since autumn 2007 and
is tailored according to the customer's demand. The key feature making C2SAT
the winner in the purchase is spelled reliability over price", says Per
Christiansen, Senior Vice President, Trac Networks.
