ERF Wireless Adds High-Performance VSAT Capability to Satisfy Oil & Gas Customer Needs for Extremely Remote Drilling Operations
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/erf-wireless-ad...00165.html
LEAGUE CITY, TX, Sept. 24, 2013 - (Accesswire) - ERF Wireless (ERFB), the operator of the nation's largest terrestrial wireless broadband network servicing the domestic oil and gas sector, announced today that the company has recently acquired and has already put into customer service ten trailer-mounted self-acquiring VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) units to provide high-bandwidth broadband Internet and data communications services to current customers whose oil and gas drilling operations in extremely remote locations are not accessible to the ERF Wireless broadband network system through one of the company's fleet of 134 MBTs (Mobile Broadband Towers). These high-performance VSAT units are owned by ERF Wireless and are operated on one of the world's larger satellite networks.
Tim Maxson, COO of ERF Wireless, stated, "At the request of our oil and gas customers, we've initially provided our self-deploying VSAT service to operators in the new Cline Shale region of the Permian. This play stretches for approximately 1.6 million acres in West Texas and early indications are that demand will remain strong for these units in this play due to a lack of competitive broadband providers as well as EBI's geographical ability to support the customer in one of the largest shale plays ever discovered in North America. We are continuing to listen to our customers and are constantly acquiring additional units to meet our customers' demands. We are leveraging the use of VSATs where our customers operate in extremely remote environments. This adds value to our business due to the virtually parallel revenues our VSAT units contribute. This contribution is significant, stable and has a recurring effect that allows us to gain an economy of scale on our terrestrial network. This of course translates into higher utilization and lower operating costs.
Maxson went on to say, "Although the use of an MBT through ERF's terrestrial network is still the preferred communication method, these premium, self-deploying VSAT units are far superior to the typical smaller VSATs that the oil and gas industry has been using for decades and have technical capabilities that give the customer the best communications possible prior to terrestrial networks being constructed in these extremely remote areas. We look forward to staying ahead of the needs of our customers by providing innovative and secure communications solutions in remote areas that help achieve their goals regardless of where exploration and subsequent operations take them.
The U.S. Energy Information Agency has said the Cline Shale is the largest discovery in the last 50 years in the Permian Basin and could exceed all the oil in Mexico and Venezuela combined, with some predictions that as much as 30 billion barrels of oil could be recovered.
