Last-Mile Connections

Poseidon's flexible design and significant bandwidth capacity will allow each property connected to the Poseidon backbone to serve as a central hub for many mobile assets in the field vicinity. A single processing platform can provide broadband, low-latency fiber backhaul to drilling vessels, field support contractor vessels, and other vital support operations in or near the lease # block.

Examples include the capability to:

• connect nearby drilling platforms via wireless connections or fiber connections provided in remote drill centers around the field
• provide roaming services to marine and aviation operations via WiFi or WIMAX connections hosted at the platform
• provide bandwidth to production facilities in adjacent fields
• Provide broadband, low-latency wireless services to in-field construction vessels during critical construction or inspection operations
• allow real-time streaming ROV video feed of inspection or construction operations
• allow real-time streaming of large data sets from subsea and downhole inspection operations
