Focus on logistics newsletter-Seaspan will deploy Starlink services for the whole fleet
On June 22nd, Seaspan Corporation, the world's largest independent container ship owner, announced that it would install SpaceX Starlink satellite Internet service for all its ships, becoming the first major container ship owner/operator to deploy Starlink service in the whole fleet.
Seaspan notes that on-board connectivity is an important factor affecting mental health and wellbeing at sea. The decision to roll out Starlink technology throughout Seaspan's fleet was largely influenced by positive feedback from Seaspan's crew during initial deployment. Starlink's functionality gives crews largely unlimited bandwidth, a transformative step for the shipping industry.
According to the International Shipping Network, Seaspan is the largest independent container ship owner in the world, with industry-leading ship management services. Its business scope mainly provides charter services for large container liner companies in the world according to the principles of long-term, fixed-rate and time charter.
