Intellian has launched a satcom package for smart ships with marine engineering and service provider Hyundai Global Service (HGS). This is the first joint project to come from the companies' signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in July 2019. The package, which integrates satellite communications with HHI's existing smart ship solution, was launched at an event entitled 'HGS & Intellian Satellite Package Launching Show' at Nurimaru APEC House in Busan, Korea on October 22 - the first day of Kormarine. In attendance were invited ship owners and executives of HHI and major shipping companies. This world-first service is a combination of HHI's 'Integrated Smart Ship (ISS)' solution - a digital eco-system for vessel and fleet management which incorporates a powerful data analysis platform - and Intellian's satellite communications antenna systems. HGS selected Intellian as partner due to its broad range of innovative, resilient antennas, and its flexibility to operate with global service providers to provide comprehensive service to customers. The new package will provide HGS with a standardized smart ship package to supply for newly-built HHI ships, while Intellian will secure new customers. Moreover, as it offers internet provision right from the sea trial, customers are freed from the inconvenience of fitting network services to the vessel. HGS will also provide customer support for any smart ship solution issues, guaranteeing faster response times and trustworthy service.
