Are Twin Engines a solution?

Hypothetical question.

During the warm summer months in the GOM, let say a S-76 heads out to a distant platform and has an engine failure. It's only landing option would be to ditch or make a platform landing. Do they have enough power to hover or will it be a running landing? If they do a running landing is there enough room to stop?
