Establishment of Network Topologies using V-SAT Platform to improve Oil Exploration in Nigeria
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Over the years, a majority of oil companies in isolated oil locations in Nigeria are getting on with only an analogue phone line and a thermal paper fax machine. Communications to drilling rigs were primarily accomplished through the design of radio, telephone, and microwave networks. Flawless as it may have seemed to the end user, the services are made up of a combination of technologies including radiotelephones tied back to back with analog microwave channels in a four-wire E and M configuration. Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSAT) allows for the provision of Broadband services using Satellite technology. The technology has been deployed for many years and was traditionally reserved for large telecommunication operators. This paper is aimed at presenting an innovative telecommunication solution that can be applied within isolated environments in Nigeria to enhance oil operations. During the course of this research, mesh, star, and virtual star networks using V-SAT platform where implemented in remote locations of oil exploration and drilling sites in Nigeria.
