Inmarsat and SeaFocus will examine data from Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) calls made to Inmarsat in order to provide insights into safety trends and reveal patterns at a local and global level.

A new report called "The Network Effect: Strategising Connectivity at Sea for Maximum Impact", compiled by maritime innovation consultancy Thetius, and published by Inmarsat, makes a compelling case that shipping companies seeking to meet current and emerging challenges facing the maritime industry will benefit from a strategic approach to connectivity.

Data usage on commercial maritime vessels has jumped more than threefold since 2019, according to new communications analysis by Inmarsat, that underlines the shipping industry’s reliance on digital connectivity to enhance operating efficiency and crew welfare.

Advancing technology is enhancing maritime safety but shipping needs greater transparency, distress call interoperability, updated training and better crew retention to verify continuous improvement, notes a recently-published report by Inmarsat. 

A new report published by Inmarsat highlights the role of IMO's 2021 cyber risk management code in providing a framework for cyber resilience.

A new report published by Inmarsat indicates that seafarers are largely in favour of greater digitalisation but that a sizeable proportion of those working at sea also fear shrinking job opportunities.

Aiming to establish the main safety concerns currently facing the shipping industry, Inmarsat published "The Future of Maritime Safety Report 2022", examining data from Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) calls made to Inmarsat.

As the successor to Inmarsat’s industry-leading maritime safety service, Inmarsat C, Fleet Safety will facilitate a more proactive approach to distress communication based on unparalleled performance, advanced functionality, and an intuitive user interface, argues Peter Broadhurst, Senior Vice President of Safety and Cyber Security, Inmarsat Maritime.

Inmarsat, a mobile satellite communications network provider, launched Fleet Secure Unified Threat Management (UTM), as an option on its Fleet Xpress service, which protects ship networks against cyber attacks.

Inmarsat published a new decarbonisation report exploring the impact digital technology can make on shipping’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
