Keppel has signed a binding term sheet with an unnamed global telco for the "indefeasible right of use" of a fibre pair in its Bifrost Cable System for 25 years.

Detailed terms of the IRU, including operations and maintenance services, are being finalised by the parties. They aim to sign the definitive agreement in 2Q 2026.

Since last October, Bifrost has been ready for service. This subsea cable system is the first to have a direct link between Singapore and the US west coast via Indonesia.
