Our History
Initially registered in 2013, we are a family run business which started when Simon retired from the military after 30 years service, primarily to facilitate himself as an outsourced contracting subject matter expert to offshore and onshore organisations. During this time, work was undertaken in many countries, from Singapore, China, Thailand, India, Australia, Myanmar and Sri Lanka supporting the oil and gas operators and government run hospitals carrying out heliport inspections, crew training and helicopter operator acceptance audits. Additionally practical support was provided to super yachts operating in the United States and Asia Pacific region, followed by oil and gas operator CAP437 gap analysis work in the Gulf of Mexico. A period of time was spent working in a project management role for the National Oil and Gas company in the Eastern Provence of Saudi Arabia developing an interim fire and rescue service and helipad installation to support the biggest chemical production plant in the region. Moving back to the UK, working primarily in the offshore oil / gas as well as the HEMS / Hospital sector providing helideck and helipad design, integration, safety case and through life management processes.
