H175 to start UK-based offshore operations

Belgian based operator NHV have recently taken delivery of their third H175.  OO-NSD (Serial #5006) routed into the UK via their current base at Norwich on Tuesday 29th September before flying north to Aberdeen from where it is now based.

HeliHub.comunderstands a second H175 will join it in the coming weeks, ready to start a new contract out of Aberdeen on 1st January 2016.  Industry sources are suggesting that this is for Chevron, although the oil company declined to comment when approached.  The helicopter is fitted with a winch to starboard, as can be seen in the image below
