The renewed agreement builds on a trusted relationship that has spanned more than 20 years, underscoring both companies’ commitment to enabling resilient and secure communications for the global energy sector.

Arqiva  and Viasat Energy Services  have renewed their long-term partnership to continue delivering managed connectivity services supporting energy operations across Europe and Africa. The renewed agreement builds on a trusted relationship that has spanned more than 20 years, underscoring both companies’ commitment to enabling resilient and secure communications for the global energy sector.

This partnership is bolstered by Viasat Energy Services’ resilience, performance, and expansion into multi-orbit satellite connectivity, ensuring that customers’ core and remote energy sites remain connected — a vital requirement for modern energy infrastructure. The collaboration reflects both firms’ shared focus on delivering enterprise-grade, high-availability communications to meet the evolving needs of the energy industry.

Viasat Energy Services’ connectivity will continue to be provided through Arqiva’s World Teleport Association-accredited Tier 4 UK-based secure facilities, which are supported by a 24/7 Network Operations Centre and dedicated engineering teams. The renewed solution aligns with Viasat Energy’s multi-orbit strategy, delivering seamless integration, flexible bandwidth, and robust network performance.

“Robust, secure and resilient connectivity is a non-negotiable within the energy sector. You don’t know what you don’t know, so having the reassurance of tried and trusted providers relaying your critical data means that you will remain in the know, at all times. We’re delighted to be continuing this important work alongside Viasat Energy.”

Gaurav Jandwani, Executive Director, Media & Broadcast, Arqiva

“Our global managed services network infrastructure can deliver more coverage, capacity, and connectivity to our customers – accelerating digital transformation through new technologies, solutions, and enhanced ability to scale in the most challenging of places around the world. We’re excited to continue to work with Arqiva to continue bringing those benefits to the industry.”

Lee Ahlstrom, President, Viasat Energy Services

The renewal highlights both companies’ dedication to advancing the digital transformation of the energy sector by ensuring secure, reliable, and scalable satellite connectivity across some of the most remote and demanding operational environments.
