Rome, 4 September 2024 – Leonardo and Petroleum Air Services of Egypt are further reinforcing their fruitful collaboration in the helicopter services field. With a fleet of eight AW139 light intermediate twin engine helicopters used for passenger and offshore transport supporting the energy industry in the country, Petroleum Air Services is Recognised Service Centre for Leonardo’s commercial helicopter products. Petroleum Air Services has now become an Authorised Service Centre, obtaining a higher rank in technical support which will allow the addition of more services, greater spare parts management, and further solutions to the benefit of third party customers and users. By doing so, this partnership will reinforce the level and quality of service in the area.
Leading operator Petroleum Air Services has been deploying AW139 helicopters in support of the Oil & Gas industry in the country since 2009. Since then nearly 24,000 flight hours have been logged. The AW139 has proven a key asset for Petroleum Air Services, able to meet the most stringent requirements of OGP customers and perfectly suited for deep water operations. The AW139 has allowed the operator to further support expansion plans for offshore transport activities and exploration in the Eastern area of the Mediterranean Sea. These require high safety standards, advanced avionics, high speed and excellent overall performance; in addition to a modern support approach, with the AW139 delivering unmatched capabilities in all those aspects.
