Strengthening offshore wind operations in Poland
The new NHV base in Gdańsk marks a clear strategic move aimed at supporting the rapidly expanding offshore wind industry in the southern Baltic. The company, well known for its offshore aviation expertise across Europe, will provide helicopter transport for technicians and crews, crew change services, and offshore medical support.
By establishing a permanent presence in Poland, NHV enhances its ability to deliver reliable and safe helicopter operations tailored to the demanding requirements of offshore wind projects.
Supporting the full project lifecycle
According to NHV, the Gdańsk base enables comprehensive support throughout the entire lifecycle of offshore wind projects – from construction and commissioning to long-term operation and maintenance.
– Our expansion into Poland reflects NHV’s ambition to become a long-term helicopter service provider for the offshore wind industry. The opening of the Gdańsk base further enhances our ability to support the full project lifecycle, including crew changes, transport and offshore medical support, all delivered in line with the same high operational and safety standards – said Bram De Backer, Commercial Director at NHV.
Gdańsk as a Baltic offshore hub
Gdańsk’s strategic location, developed port infrastructure and proximity to planned and operational offshore wind farms make it a natural hub for offshore wind activities in the Baltic Sea. NHV’s entry into the Polish market further reinforces the region’s role in Europe’s energy transition and improves the safety and efficiency of offshore operations.
