Hewlett Packard Enterprise

implement a unified

communications solution

based on Microsoft Skype

for Business that supports

over 6,500 users around the

world.

A global leader in seabed-

to-surface engineering,

contractors in seabed-to-surface engineering,

construction and services to the oshore

energy industry. It provides technical

solutions to enable the delivery of complex

projects in all water depths and challenging

more manageable, cost-eective, and reliable
