Aloula to operate five new helicopters

As part of the fleet replacement strategy, Mukamalah Aviation company Ltd. will operate 5 new state of the art helicopters consisting of 3 Leonardo AW139 and 2 Airbus H145. The two aircrafts are industry leaders, helping ensure safety and reliability in challenging, multi-role operations.

With its enhanced range, endurance, hover performance, and safety features, the AW139 will complement Mukamalah’s offshore capabilities. The AW139s also allows Mukamalah to expand its capability to provide a fully functional search and rescue program, enhancing Mukamalah’s capabilities to respond to safety and rescue emergencies like never before.  One of the many new safety enhancement is the Night Vision Technology, which greatly improves flight safety, turning night into virtual day. Also, the helicopter has a large passenger cabin that can accommodate 15 passengers, and can be customized with specialized equipment for executive and VIP transportation. 

The newest variant of the Airbus H145 acquired are the latest 4-ton-class twin-engine helicopters. With a larger cabin, compact airframe, and powerful engines, they have the capability and flexibility to perform better in their current operations, as well as augment Aviation’s abilities to take on new missions. The new addition will also allow Mukamalah to meet the predicted future growth of Saudi Aramco’s hydrocarbon strategy.
