BBC News - CHC helicopter returned to Aberdeen by sea over fuel samples (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-18176799)
An offshore helicopter has been brought back to land by sea after concerns were raised about fuel samples.
The Super Puma, operated by CHC, had been refuelled on board a North Sea platform.
Fuel samples were "unsatisfactory" and the decision was made to bring the aircraft back by the offshore vessel Island Express as a "precaution".
CHC said the helicopter would be subjected to rigorous engineering checks before returning to service.
