Mr. Titus Yong, SingTel's Vice President of Satellite, said: "SingTel, one of Asia's leading satellite service providers, has been providing VSAT services with regional coverage for over two years. We are pleased to work with a top-tier global satellite service provider such as SES NEW SKIES to extend our reach to provide seamless and secure worldwide coverage over all major shipping routes."

The SES NEW SKIES satellites will also support demand for SingTel's OfficeAtSea@SingTel suite of Maritime VSAT solutions, which enable vessels to communicate seamlessly and cost-effectively with their headquarters on land.

Solutions include 'always-on' unlimited broadband internet access, email, low-cost Voice over IP (VoIP) calls, GSM onboard and ship surveillance. These overcome the limitations of traditional maritime communications by allowing the ship to become a seamless extension of the shore-based office.

States Elias Zaccack, Vice President of Sales Asia Pacific at SES NEW SKIES: "SingTel is packaging its extensive maritime satellite solutions with SES NEW SKIES' global and ubiquitous satellite reach to offer seamless and complete telecommunications solutions to vessels and offshore operations. We look forward to working with SingTel to provide coverage for 'OfficeATSea@SingTel' over all major shipping routes worldwide."
