Tampnet, a privately owned company headquartered in Norway, was founded in 2001 with approximately 150 employees. The company operates as a telecommunications operator specializing in subsea fibre-based data communications and wireless 4G LTE for the offshore industry. Tampnet manages offshore telecom infrastructure across the North Sea and the Gulf of Mexico.
On June 23, 2026, Tampnet secured contracts from an international energy major to deliver advanced connectivity solutions for two deepwater development projects in the US Gulf's Keathley Canyon, leveraging its digital and engineering concept to enable remote collaboration and data-driven operations. Earlier that same day, Tampnet detailed an expansion of its US Gulf network, which will add 400 kilometers of subsea fiber and extend offshore 4G and 5G coverage across 10,000 square kilometers. This expansion is set to support new deepwater developments and strengthen the digital infrastructure for remote operations, with the 400 km of fiber optic cable connecting new floating oil and gas processing facilities operated by Beacon Offshore Energy and LLOG Exploration in Keathley Canyon to serve as connectivity hubs for vessels, drilling rigs, and future infrastructure. This development follows Tampnet winning an initial contract on June 22, 2026, from a major international energy group to provide underwater optical fiber and 5G connectivity for two developments in the US Gulf, supporting secure real-time data transfer between offshore installations and onshore operations centers.
