Projects

ORYX Aviation provided specialized support for the installation of helideck perimeter safety nets and landing area safety nets on an FPSO vessel operating offshore in the waters of the Ivory Coast. The project was undertaken to enhance helideck safety and ensure that the landing area protection systems met recognized offshore aviation safety standards.

To execute the work efficiently within the limited operational window, ORYX Aviation deployed an experienced rope access team certified by the Industrial Rope Access Trade Association (IRATA). Using advanced rope access techniques, the team successfully completed the installation of both the perimeter safety netting and landing area safety net system in a safe, controlled, and time-efficient manner without disrupting vessel operations.

The project was delivered to the highest professional standards, ensuring improved helideck safety for personnel and helicopter operations. The client expressed full satisfaction with the quality, efficiency, and professionalism demonstrated by the ORYX Aviation team throughout the project.

ORYX Aviation successfully supported the operational readiness of helideck facilities in the Al?Bunduq Oil Field by delivering specialized aviation compliance and maintenance services in line with applicable aviation safety requirements. The project was carried out to ensure the helideck met the operational standards required for safe helicopter operations within offshore field facilities.

As part of the scope of work, ORYX Aviation conducted a Task Resource Analysis (TRA), where a full-scale assessment and exercise were carried out to evaluate the required emergency response capability during a potential helicopter incident. This analysis examined the operational scenario to determine the appropriate number of Helideck Landing Officers (HLO) and Helideck Assistants (HDA) required to effectively respond to and manage an emergency on the helideck, ensuring adequate manpower and preparedness in line with CAR HVD and ICAO Standards.

Following the completion of the surface treatment, a helideck friction test was conducted, achieving a maximum grip value of 1.0 ? (mu). Based on the satisfactory results and compliance with CAR HVD, ORYX Aviation issued a three-year Helideck Friction Test Certificate confirming the helideck surface met the required safety performance standards.
