On April 24, 2026, Anders Tysdal, Tampnet's Chief Infrastructure Officer, authored an industry viewpoint discussing how offshore operators are re-evaluating the connection, control, and support of offshore assets from shore. This re-evaluation aims to address mounting pressures to ensure stable energy supply, reduce cost per barrel, improve safety, and cut emissions. Previously, on April 21, Tampnet partnered with communications services provider iBASIS to strengthen offshore mobile connectivity. This collaboration targets improved roaming infrastructure and enhanced mobile connectivity across regions like the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea, serving maritime workers, offshore energy personnel, and cruise passengers. The agreement, which involves iBASIS's full roaming IPX suite, supports the growing demand for seamless data access and reliable roaming in offshore and maritime environments. It also prepares for increasing offshore data usage by offering more accessible, predictable, and cost-efficient mobile connectivity through a "Roam Like Home" model.
