Bristow Wins 10-year Netherlands SAR Contract
Bristow Group was
awarded a contract from the Netherlands Coastguard to provide search and rescue
(SAR) helicopter services for a 10-year period with two one-year extension
options. Effective November 4, the contract with the Netherlands Defense
Material Organization calls for Bristow to provide dedicated SAR-equipped
Leonardo AW189 helicopters and crews from two operational bases in the
Netherlands on an around-the-clock basis.
The Bristow operation will be tasked by the Joint Rescue Coordination
Center in Den Helder, and provide additional services as required by the
Coastguard including post-disaster and incident operations, as well as
transportation of the Maritime Incident Response Group.
“We look forward to re-establishing our vast SAR experience,
efficiencies, and leading Target Zero safety culture to the Netherlands,” said
Bristow president and CEO Chris Bradshaw. “This award confirms the
differentiating value proposition we are able to bring based on our proven
experience, commitment to innovation and sustainability, and enhanced
capabilities that we deliver to our clients worldwide.”
In addition to the Netherlands, the Houston-based vertical lift company
provides SAR services in Guyana, Norway, Suriname, Trinidad, and the U.S.
Bristow also operates the HM Coastguard helicopter SAR service for the UK’s
Maritime and Coastguard Agency.
