Helicopters have assumed a key role in maritime transportation, mainly to serve offshore platforms.
Maritime helideck operations face many risks and for every flight, decisions must be taken regarding the procedures and interactions between the pilot in command, the helicopter itself, the environment, and the crew onboard.
It is essential to perform thorough risk assessments on helideck operations and safety procedures must be implemented to mitigate and reduce helicopter related accidents and incidents. These safety procedures must be communicated and trained as frequently as possible, and the emergency and fire-fighting equipment must be readily available in case of accident.
The Everlux signs for helidecks will help crews to keep the safety procedures in mind as well as to quickly identify helideck escape routes and fire-fighting equipment.
