NHV tasks latest arrival with Rotterdam duties
The company has gained a state-of-the-art H145D3, strengthening its marine pilot transfer services in Rotterdam.

Belgian B-to-B helicopter services provider NHV Group has secured a long-term lease for an Airbus Helicopters H145D3. The new aircraft, featuring five rotor blades, enhanced performance and reduced noise levels, will be deployed from 1st January 2025.

The helicopter will support marine pilot transfer (MPT) services for Nederlands Loodswezen, with NHV's Rotterdam Harbour location functioning as its base.

The H145D3 replaces the company's long-serving Dauphin AS365 N3, which has supported the same contract for 25 years. The aircraft will facilitate crew transport between vessels and onshore facilities in Rotterdam. NHV continues to modernise its fleet as part of its strategic growth, maintaining a robust presence in offshore energy and MPT sectors.
