Airlift - North Sea?
Have herd Airlift will make a offshore company - do anybody know?
|
I believe they plan to use one 332L with a permanent heavy lift kit for ad hoc flare tip replacements.
|
If that is the case they will go out of business quickly. There is not enough underslinging work to keep a Puma occupied full time in North Sea
|
I think for the longest time airlift has tried to get out on the offshore marked, they even have their own link on the website for it www.airlift.no , it will be intresting to see how they get on
|
Coalface - I agree! Rest of the time would be using it on shore.
There are tortuous links between the new Danish offshore company Dancopter, Airlift and a leasing company. Perhaps this better explains the rumour? |
One correction: the flare tip work will be done by a 332C
One addition: the company 'involved' with Dancopter and Airlift is Aage Krog's Helicopter Transportation Group. HTG, formed in 1990, own a 33% stake in Dancopter (the company that won a number of CHC's Danish International's contracts) and had previously acquired SHS, Airlift AB and Osterman Helicopters in Sweden and both Airlift AS and Heliteam in Norway. |
They will succeed if they employ the right tactics; it's not what it costs to do the job , but what you save against conventional methods. Bristows are just to give up commercial winching and u/s work. So you just have to compete against crane barges at £ 150.000 a day or so. Having worked in commercial helicopter lifting I could offer some advice. There's a lot of money out there from the oil companies if they can't play the ordinary operators against each other. Hope Airlift does well to screw the F...ers.:yuk:
