Sea Launch on Track to Loft Intelsat 19
http://www.sea-launch.com/news_releases/2012/nr_120217.html

BERN, Switzerland, February 17, 2012 - Sea Launch AG, through Energia Logistics Ltd., has conducted a Hardware Acceptance Review of the Zenit-2S launch vehicle to be utilized in support of the Intelsat 19 mission. A team of specialists from the Chief Engineer's Office at Energia Logistics Ltd., together with specialists from RSC Energia, reviewed all of the acceptance data for the Zenit-2S #SL33 vehicle and found that all required acceptance test values were within specification.

The Condock V sea-based transport vessel carrying the Zenit-2S launch vehicle designated for Intelsat 19 departed the port at Oktyabrsky, Ukraine on February 17, 2012 and is scheduled to arrive pier-side at Sea Launch's Home Port facility in Long Beach, California on March 30, 2012. The Block DM-SL upper stage designated for Intelsat 19, provided by RSC Energia, was shipped to Home Port last year and the Payload Accommodations, provided by Boeing Commercial Space Company, will be shipped in early March. The Intelsat 19 mission is planned for launch in May 2012.

Built by Space Systems Loral, the Intelsat 19 satellite will weigh approximately 5,600 kilograms (12,345 lbs.) at launch. It is expected to arrive at the Sea Launch facility during the last week of March in preparation for the start of standalone and combined spacecraft operations.

Sea Launch Selected to Launch Eutelsat's W5A Spacecraft
http://www.sea-launch.com/news_releases/2012/nr_120312b.html

BERN, Switzerland, March 12, 2012 – Eutelsat has assigned the launch of its EUTELSAT 70B (ex. W5A) communications satellite to Sea Launch to be launched in the fourth quarter of 2012. The launch will occur from Sea Launch's launch platform Odyssey at its equatorial launch site, located at 154 degrees West longitude, in the international waters of the Pacific Ocean.

The EUTELSAT 70B satellite is being built by Astrium, an EADS company and is based on the Eurostar-3000 platform. Weighing over 5,200 kilograms at lift-off, it will be lofted into an optimized geosynchronous transfer orbit on board the Zenit 3SL whose high performance should enable the satellite to exceed its designed in-orbit lifetime of 15 years.

EUTELSAT 70B is designed to optimise resources from a single orbital slot at the crossroads between Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. With high frequency reuse, four powerful regional beams connected to 48 Ku-band transponders will be located on a single platform. It will more than double current Eutelsat capacity at 70.5° East for data and government services, broadband access, GSM backhauling and professional video exchanges.

"Our close coordination with RSC Energia in assuring production scheduling and mission assurance for Sea Launch missions continues to provide value for our customers", said Kjell Karlsen, President of Sea Launch AG. "We are very pleased to be selected by Eutelsat for this important mission."

David Bair, Eutelsat Chief Technical Officer added "Sea Launch and RSC Energia executed a flawless launch of our EUTELSAT 7 West A satellite in October 2011. We look forward to working closely with the team again on the EUTELSAT 70B campaign and to seeing this new satellite strengthen our in-orbit resources and flexibility."

Sea Launch to Launch the Intelsat 27 Spacecraft
http://www.sea-launch.com/news_releases/2012/nr_120312a.html

Bern, Switzerland, March 12, 2012 – Sea Launch has been selected to launch the Intelsat 27 communications satellite in early 2013. Intelsat 27 will be placed into an optimized geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO) utilizing the highly-proven Sea Launch Zenit 3SL launch system. The launch will occur from Sea Launch's launch platform Odyssey at its equatorial launch site, located at 154 degrees West longitude, in the international waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Built by Boeing Satellite Systems Inc., the 702-MP Intelsat 27 satellite will serve Intelsat's customers throughout the Americas and Europe, and will provide increased and enhanced capacity for media, network and government services. It will be located at 304.5 degrees East, and is designed for 15 years of service.

At the time of lift-off, the spacecraft will weigh approximately 6,241 kilograms, making it the heaviest spacecraft to be lifted by the Sea Launch Zenit-3SL launch system.

"Following on to our recent announcement on the award of the Intelsat 21 launch, Sea Launch looks forward to working hard towards the successful launch of Intelsat 27 in early 2013," said Kjell Karlsen, President of Sea Launch. "With the continued support of our parent organization, RSC Energia, Sea Launch is regaining momentum and executing on its Business Plan."

"With six satellites scheduled for launch in the next year, a diversity of reliable solutions for Intelsat's access to space is essential," said Thierry Guillemin, Intelsat's SVP and Chief Technical Officer. "We are pleased to rely on Sea Launch once again to support some of these critical missions."

Sea Launch and Intelsat signed a multiple launch services agreement for up to five missions on the Sea Launch system in 2010.
