Earlier this month, Neptune Energy and CHC Helicopter celebrated the inaugural flight of CHC’s Airbus H175 from Norwich to the Cygnus A and Cygnus B installations in the Southern North Sea, as part of a new 22-month contract with multiple extension options.
“We are delighted to have the opportunity to continue our 17-year aviation partnership with Neptune who has become one of our largest North Sea customers,” said Mark Abbey, CHC’s regional director for Europe, Middle East and Africa. “I believe these awards reflect the excellent safety performance, on-time departure performance and value we continue to deliver.”
This contract is in addition to the 2.5-year contract extension CHC secured with Neptune in November 2017 to provide three AW139 aircraft operating to 32 different locations in the Southern North Sea from the company’s Den Helder base in the Netherlands.
“Congratulations to the teams in Norwich and Den Helder on these new agreements,” said Karl Fessenden, president and CEO of CHC Helicopter. “We look forward to continuing to build on our relationship with Neptune and meet their aviation transportation needs for the duration of these projects and beyond throughout the EMEA region.”
