Helicopters for oil and gas

Posted: 21 Feb 2022

Recently the WFS team handled the importation of two Airbus H225 Helicopters. The helicopters are used to transport drilling crew involved in off-shore exploration work to and from the rig, as well as providing day and night medical evacuation and local training and maintenance of the check flight at Lüderitz airport.

The helicopters, able to carry 19 people each, were flown to Windhoek from Paris, France, onboard an Antonov 124 cargo plane. From there the WFS team handled all the necessary customs clearance procedures and had the helicopters and helicopter parts transported on abnormal trucks to Luderitz.
