| Photos from the Perth Teleport Tour |
Twenty-five guests from the American Chamber of Commerce (AMCHAM) visited the Perth Teleport in Western Australia, one of two such facilities operated by NewSat Ltd. The guests were given a tour of the antenna systems used in the ground port, as well as a presentation of the company's history and the satellite industry. Len McGoldrick, Vice President of Engineering and Operations, welcomed the guests and also gave them a quick tour of the Network Operations Centre which run 24 x 7 x 365. The Perth teleport is an award-winning facility certified by military organizations across the world to supply services to the defence industry. Aside from servicing government and military customers, the Perth teleport was recently awarded a contract to provide offshore and onshore communications to Chevron's Wheatstone Project in Western Australia, one of the largest liquid natural gas developments in the region.
