The Inmarsat Fleet 77 system is one of the most advanced satellite telecom services dedicated to the maritime industry. It was developed so that, on the one hand it would take full advantage of the existing satellite telecommunications infrastructure as well as any new technological developments and on the other hand, to cover all the specialised requirements of modern maritime industry.

It combines every service currently offered from the existing telecom networks, together with new enhanced services as dictated by the contemporary business environment. Thus, it offers the traditional forms of telecommunications such as voice, fax and e-mail, with the most up to date services such as transmission of electronic video and audio files at high speeds (128 or 64 kbps). Furthermore, the system possesses unique characteristics, such as the capabilities to be "on-line" with the IP network on a 24/7 basis, on a volume-based charge, subject to usage.

Inmarsat Fleet 77 is fully compliant with the most updated specifications of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) for new systems introduced to the international safety and distress system (GMDSS), providing prioritisation and pre-emption.
