Airbus and The Helicopter Company (THC), Saudi Arabia’s premier provider of commercial helicopter services and fully owned by the Public Investment Fund, have taken a monumental step in its growth trajectory by signing a historic framework agreement.
This transformative agreement encompasses the acquisition of up to 120 Airbus helicopters of various types, marking a strategic move set to unfold over the next five to seven years. The deal includes a firm order for eight H125s, complemented by the conversion of options from a previous contract to secure an additional 10 H145s. With this agreement, THC’s total firm Airbus helicopter fleet is set to reach 60 aircraft, with 25 already in active service.
