Satellite communications and technologies specialist Tototheo Maritime has passed the 1,000-ship mark in Fleet Xpress terminal installations. Inmarsat, which offers Fleet Xpress, announced the milestone on Nov. 20. Inmarsat is now fully part of Viasat, and maritime remains a key target market for the company.

The 1,000 terminal installations have included container and general cargo ships, tankers, bulk carriers and very large crude carriers. Tototheo has worked closely with Inmarsat Maritime for over 30 years and has played a key role supporting commercial shipping’s uptake of the Fleet Xpress service since its launch in 2016.

“This is a remarkable achievement for Tototheo and a further expression of the success we have had in working in partnership with Inmarsat for over three decades. Having activated more than 1,000 Fleet Xpress terminals, we look forward to many more years of helping the maritime industry harness the power of data and digitalization using Fleet Xpress,” Despina Panayiotou Theodosiou, co-CEO of Tototheo Maritime, said in a statement.
