Photo Release -- Videotel Training Film Created for ExxonMobil Marine Wins Media Award
29 April 2015 - 01:47AM
Videotel™, the leading international provider of e-Learning
maritime training solutions and a company of KVH Industries, Inc.,
(Nasdaq:KVHI), has received a highly acclaimed Golden Reel Award
from the Media Communications Association-International (MCA-I) in
recognition of a training video that Videotel created for
ExxonMobil Marine.

recognition supports Videotel's role as a major provider of
high-quality training films to some of the world's largest blue
chip companies, with an ability to present highly technical
material in a compelling manner. Called "Cold Corrosion Insights,"
the video was produced for ExxonMobil Marine and explores the
harmful effects of acid corrosion in ships' engines, which can
reduce the lifespan of an engine by up to 90% in some cases.
The MCA-I Media Festival, held annually, celebrates excellence
in media communications; each film is judged by a panel of media
communications professionals.
Iain White, marketing manager at ExxonMobil Marine, welcomed the
award as recognition of the quality of the training video. "As
technology develops and market demands change, ship owners,
managers and charterers need to drive home the need for quality
ships. A quality ship is as much about how it is managed as well as
how its shipboard staff is trained. Prevention is always better
than cure and training your crew to spot and rectify such important
technical issues is crucial if ships are to avoid unnecessary and
costly downtime."
Nigel Cleave, CEO of Videotel, said it was essential that
training solutions produced on a bespoke basis for its clients
reflect not only the training demands being placed on the industry
by international and regional regulators but also an understanding
of the specific needs of the individual clients. "Working alongside
a market leader such as ExxonMobil Marine demonstrated the extent
to which they are determined to operate to a high level. They are
not only interested in producing a market-leading product, but they
are also vigilant in making sure that their customers understand
how to use it and how to get the most out of it."
Mr. Cleave added: "Videotel is delighted to have won this very
prestigious award. Producing bespoke materials for our clients is a
growing area for Videotel and winning this award is a tremendous
endorsement for both the Videotel and ExxonMobil Marine teams that
helped produce this very informative video."
Videotel has issued more than 20,000 formal certificates for its
range of courses and has a combination of more than 250 approvals,
recognitions, and accreditations for its courses/CBTs issued by
various flag state administrations, classification societies, and
maritime professional bodies.
