Milestone Aviation leases four helicopters to Offshore Helicopter Services UK

Milestone Aviation Group has signed lease agreements with Offshore Helicopter Services UK (OHS) for four additional helicopters, comprising two new Leonardo AW139s, one new Airbus H175, and one Sikorsky S-92. These aircraft are scheduled for delivery between 2025 and 2026.

The Airbus H175 and Sikorsky S-92 helicopters will be configured for oil and gas missions to support OHS’s offshore operations in the UK, while the Leonardo AW139 will be deployed for search and rescue operations across the country.

Milestone also announced that it has extended existing lease agreements with OHS for four aircraft, including one Sikorsky S-92 and three Airbus H175 helicopters.

Sebastien Moulin, Chief Commercial Officer, Milestone, commented: “Milestone has consistently invested in the most modern, fuel-efficient aircraft, ensuring we are well positioned to support our customers with their fleet requirements through the financing of new and used aircraft. We thank OHS for their business and look forward to working with the team as these aircraft deliver.”

Chris Krajewski, Executive Director of OHS, added: “OHS is committed to its North Sea customers and continues to invest in its fleet to ensure we can execute safe and highly reliable transportation services. Milestone has been a long-term strategic partner of OHS and a critical supporter of the strong growth we have experienced over the last two years.”

Last year Milestone signed a framework agreement with Safran Helicopter Engines, the global manufacturer.
