Norwegian Maritime — Lofoten Fleet
Fishing fleet coordination connectivity resilience assessment
Lofoten, Norway · ~68.2°N · maritime · Deterministic Model v0.4
Research prototype · Non-commercial · Model-based analysis — not procurement advice or a site survey.
Context
Remote-operated fishing fleet coordination with VSAT + Iridium failover. Assesses documented dual-path maritime setups in the Norwegian Nordics.
Evidence hygiene
- MODELLED
VSAT + Iridium dual-path Signature from Model v0.4 for the stated fleet inputs — catalog confidence, not measured sea trials.
- RESEARCH
Norwegian Nordics maritime seed with real-region coordinates; no Finnish Traficom Bittimittari applies.
- DERIVED
Ranked options and risks follow the same deterministic Advisor composition for these inputs.
Current setup provides moderate redundancy but lacks diverse orbital options, leaving operations vulnerable to single-point failures in harsh Arctic conditions.

Address: Lack of non-geostationary backup
Deterministic Model v0.4 — illustrative research output, not a coverage guarantee
RECOMMENDATION
Deploy O3b mPOWER as primary failover with Starlink Maritime as secondary, while maintaining Iridium for critical control signals. Prioritize phased terminal upgrades to avoid single-provider dependency.
