High-Capacity, High-Throughput: New Satellite Systems Meet Big Oil’s Big Data
Paul Berlinsky Director, Sales, Brazil O3b Networks
O3bEnergy Presentation
Company overview What we do
2
Building a next-generation satellite constellation: capable of offering our customers connectivity which is better, faster and more affordable
Each beam is connected to a high throughput teleport providing reliable, high-speed internet at a competitive price
Ka-band beams of 700km diameter: steerable around the globe, each delivering ≥1.2 Gbps/Beam
Continuous coverage: when one satellite leaves, another satellite takes over without transmission interruption
Initial constellation of eight MEO satellites: providing fiber-like latency
O3b is 100% funded and on schedule for service launch 70+
Company overview Value proposition
High Bandwidth Scalable options from 20 Mbps to 1 Gbps
High Speed 432 MHz steerable beams
Low Latency Roundtrip latency of 120ms enabling:
• Faster Interactivity
• Superior voice quality
Low Cost Significantly lower cost than Geostationary
Flexibility
Steerable beams can be placed anywhere 45 degrees North/South of the Equator

What is Big Data?
• Big Data is any type of databases, photos, audio, web, mobile, and video
• Typically a challenge when you think of using Big Data on satellite communications
• Big Data is a large collection of expanding data sets that’s difficult to manipulate and manage using a single tool
• Big Data access has to be fast as is time-sensitive when streaming records and in some cases has to be in real-time
• Big Data is also continuously expanding in size

New Way of Thinking of Big Data
If I had access to a large amount of affordable, low latency bandwidth, how would this change the way I access Big Data using satellite?
O3b and Big Data
• Big Data will benefit from O3b’s low latency high capacity satellites
• Larger amounts of data can be accessed and streamed • Optimize real-time features • Allow for newer applications tools • Speed up seismic and exploration of new opportunities
Drivers for IT Enabled Productivity
• ‘Big Data’ coming from diversified up-stream demand
• Real-time data collection
• Drive toward centralized IT infrastructure
• Focus on down-time reduction and process efficiency improvements
• Voice and video for improved management
• Increase Quality of Life (Crew Morale Services)
• Transport Layer must enable latest IT services

Current Problems in Seismic Survey Activity
Expensive
Very High Day Rate
Data tapes flown to shore by helicopter
Need for real-time information to make
quick decisions
Scientific staff onboard
Processing equipment and data
servers onboard 500 Gbytes – 3 Tbytes
produced per day

Onshore Corporate office, Staff and Data Center Servers
Data Packages of 5 GB to 1TB per Day
elegant and cost-effective
Very high bandwidth link to transmit real-time 3D/4D imaging data
Scientific staff, storage & processing equipment remain onshore
The RIGHT solution for Seismic data transfer

Store and Forward transfer of “big data”
Strategic Advantages to Receiving Real-time Seismic Imaging Data
• First ever global transmission solution capable of transferring 1TB of data per day
• Reduce survey time of approximately 1/3rd @ $60K per day saved.
Able to monitor survey data in real-time and keep survey ship over most likely area
Able to re-image an area quickly if something interesting shows up
• Speed time to “first oil” Speed data into shore data center processing cycle Overlap data collection and processing while ship is still in survey area
• Speed up time to market for new oil & gas field by 3-6 months.
