Iprojekthi yentambo yentambo engaphantsi kolwandle yaseArctic ifumene utyalo-mali lokuqala

I-consortium eceba ukwakha eyokuqalaintambo yokukhanyainkwili yaseArctic yathi ngomhla we-2 ukuba iprojekthi, ekulindeleke ukuba ibize i-euro eyi-1.1 yebhiliyoni (malunga ne-1.15 yeebhiliyoni zeedola zase-US), ifumene utyalo-mali lokuqala.

Iya kuba yintambo yokuqalai-fiber opticaleya kubekwa phantsi kolwandle lwe-Arctic, edibanisa iYurophu kunye neJapan kuwo wonke uMntla Melika njengenxalenye yesiseko se-intanethi yehlabathi, abaphuhlisi bathi.

Ngaphambili, iprojekthi yayicebe ukusebenzisana neMegaphon Telecom, i-Russian operator yesibini ngobukhulu, ukubeka iintambo kunxweme lweArctic yaseRashiya. Kodwa izicwangciso zaye zachithwa kunyaka ophelileyo.

Inkampani yaseFinland iSinia, ekhokela iProjekthi yeFar North Fiber Optic, ithe isizathu sokurhoxiswa kukungathandi okukhulayo kweRussia ukugunyazisa ukubekwa kwentambo kwindawo yayo.

IFar North Optical Fiber yiprojekthi yentsebenziswano yeSignia Corporation, iUS-based Far North Digital Corporation kunye neJapan Atria Corporation.

"Sibone ezinye iimpawu zokomelezwa kobuzwe baseRashiya, kwaye yiloo nto esiyifumeneyo njengoko siqhubela phambili le projekthi," i-CEO ye-Signia uKnapila uxelele iintatheli.

Intambo, ehamba ukusuka enyakatho yeYurophu ukuya eJapan ngeGreenland, eCanada naseAlaska, iya kunciphisa ukulibaziseka kokuhanjiswa kwedatha phakathi kweFrankfurt neTokyo ngama-30 ekhulwini, yatsho.

I-Nordic Research and Education Network, esekelwe eKastrup, eDenmark, yathi isayine ileta yenjongo yokutyala imali kwiProjekthi yeFar North Fiber Optic, ukutyala imali enye yeentambo ze-12 zeentambo zangaphantsi kolwandle ezicetywayo ukuba zakhiwe.

I-Far North Fiber Optic Project consortium ayizange iveze inani elichanekileyo lotyalo-mali, kodwa umthombo uthe ukwakhiwa kweentambo zangaphantsi kwamanzi zixabisa malunga ne-100 yezigidi zee-euro kunye nenye i-euro yezigidi ezili-100 kwiindleko zokulondoloza kubomi babo obuluncedo indala.

U-Knapila uthe iintambo ezibonakalayo zothungelwano olukhoyo phakathi kweYurophu kunye ne-Asiya ikakhulu zidlula kwi-Suez Canal, apho iintambo ze-optical zonakaliswa lula ngenxa yezithuthi ezininzi zaselwandle.

“Sixhomekeke ngakumbi kuthungelwano, kwaye ukufumaneka kwayo kuxhomekeke ekubeni zingaphi ezinye iindlela ezikhoyo,” utshilo.

I-Signia, elawulwa ngurhulumente waseFinland, ibandakanyeka kule projekthi kuba inikwe umsebenzi wokuphucula kunye nokwahlula unxibelelwano lweFinland kunye nehlabathi langaphandle, okwangoku lixhomekeke kakhulu kunxibelelwano lwentambo phakathi kwayo neYurophu.
