Vietnam Helicopter Corporation bolsters offshore operations with Airbus H225 helicopter order

The Vietnam Helicopter Corporation (VNH), through its subsidiaries Southern Vietnam Helicopter Company (VNH South) and Northern Vietnam Helicopter Company (VNH North), has ordered three Airbus H225 helicopters to support its offshore energy operations.

The acquisition will aid the expansion of VNH’s activities in the offshore oil and gas sector while replacing older aircraft in its fleet. The new H225s will join VNH’s existing Airbus helicopters, which include Super Puma and H155 models, for missions such as offshore transport, utility tasks, search and rescue, and logistical support.

Announced on April 7, 2026, in Hanoi, the order addresses the need to modernize VNH’s fleet amid growing demands in Vietnam’s offshore energy industry. The H225, known for its long range and high payload, is suited for these demanding operations.
