Germany’s HTM Helicopters has positioned an order for one Airbus H145 helicopter, with choices for 2 extra models of the identical sort, that shall be utilized in offshore wind operations.
The most recent model of Airbus’ H145 provides a five-bladed rotor to the multi-mission H145, rising the helpful load of the helicopter by 150 kilograms.
Powered by two Safran Arriel 2E engines, the H145 is provided with a full authority digital engine management (FADEC) and the Helionix digital avionics suite.
It features a high-performance 4-axis autopilot, rising security and decreasing pilot workload, stated Airbus. Its significantly low acoustic footprint makes the H145 the quietest helicopter in its class, whereas its CO2 emissions are the bottom amongst its rivals, in line with the corporate.
“The H145 is ideally fitted to offshore wind operations as a result of vital capability it provides for transporting passengers and cargo, in addition to its excellent hover efficiency for hoisting operations,” stated Axel Humpert, Senior Vice President and Head of the H145 Programme at Airbus.
The brand new helicopter that shall be delivered to HTM Helicopters shall be utilised in offshore wind operations, transporting technicians, and supplies to wind farm generators off the coasts of Germany and France.
HTM was the primary operator to take supply of a five-bladed H145 for use for offshore wind operations in 2021.
In late 2023, HTM’s plane was utilized in a world premiere trial led by Airbus to hoist two crew members into the nacelles of Hywind Tampen floating offshore wind generators in Norway.
This order will add to HTM’s present fleet which options 18 Airbus helicopters, together with a mixture of H125s, H135s, and H145s in use to help a wide range of missions.
With the supply of the newly ordered helicopter, HTM’s complete H145 fleet will develop to eight helicopters (ten together with choices). 5 of these H145’s (seven together with choices) shall be used to help offshore missions.
“Over the previous 15 years within the offshore wind enterprise, we’ve seen initiatives transfer additional out from the coast and require extra payload which has led us so as to add extra H145s to our fleet,” stated Bernd Brucherseifer, Managing Director for HTM Helicopters.
“Along with glorious OEI efficiency, the helicopter provides the prospect to shortly carry out function modifications for varied buyer missions and could be very dependable and simple to keep up. The H145 is the right software for the operation and upkeep part in offshore wind operations, and we are going to see much more demand for it on this market within the close to future.”
