Polembros and Marlink have maintained a strong partnership for a considerable period, and this collaboration will significantly enhance their digital capabilities. Marlink's hybrid network, which combines satellite services managed by Marlink, will now incorporate Starlink to assess its capabilities.
Both companies are dedicated to continuously improving their services to ensure safe and efficient ship operations, with competent and dependable maritime personnel. SpaceX's Starlink will contribute to providing more reliable connectivity to workers at sea. SpaceX currently operates a fleet of over 4,200 Starlink satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), delivering high-speed internet services to even the most remote oceans worldwide.
"Polembros Shipping and Polembros Bulkers have built a reputation over the years for their commitment to safety and quality. Innovations like Starlink are highly valued as they contribute to our overall performance," stated Vasilis Kottas, IT Manager at Polembros Shipping. "Our partnership with Marlink plays a crucial role in our success as a company that prioritizes superior communications for our fleet managers and shipboard teams."
"Marlink takes pride in assisting Polembros Shipping in its progression with new digital services that enable a new era of applications and tools, supporting fleet performance and safety. The integration of Starlink's LEO service into Marlink's hybrid network further solidifies our enduring relationship and positions Polembros as a forward-thinking company," said Tore Morten Olsen, President of Marlink maritime services.
