Redline Communications Group Inc., a provider of industrial wireless broadband network connectivity solutions for mission-critical applications, has been selected to provide wireless communications for one of the world’s largest oil producers.
“We are excited to expand our business into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and in the Gulf Region, building upon our continuing success in the region. We look forward to our continued partnership with Al-Rushaid Technologies, a highly respected partner,” says Stephen J. Sorocky, CEO of Redline Communications.
Al-Rushaid Technologies – the ICT and telecom powerhouse of Al-Rushaid Group – is one of the fastest-growing technology solutions providers in Saudi Arabia. The first phase of this multi-year contract is valued at over $1 million US.
This new Redline terrestrial network will complement the existing satellite-based networks and enable industrial-grade, ultra-reliable, low latency, broadband connectivity to a diverse array of critical assets in the customer’s area of operations. The network will deliver significant efficiencies through digital transformation across the entire value chain and facilitate enhanced collaborative, security and safety applications.
“We are happy to partner with Redline and see this association as a catalyst for growth and new business opportunities, not only in oil and gas but in all business segments across Saudi Arabia,” says Rasheed Al-Rushaid, vice chairman of Al-Rushaid Group and president of Al-Rushaid Technologies.
Redline’s new Virtual Fiber family of products was formally selected after an extensive, highly competitive proof-of-concept evaluation. The Redline and Al-Rushaid partnership was successful “in demonstrating an unprecedented ability to deliver mission-critical networks in harsh industrial environments while providing military-grade security and long-range, broadband connectivity to both fixed and mobile remote assets,” states Sorocky.
