In 2014, NHV Group became the global launching customer of the Airbus H175 Helicopters. The first two H175s were operational by the end of December 2014 for Oil and Gas missions in Den Helder and The Netherlands.

At NHV Group, the customer always come first, that’s why we think of them as more than clients, but as business partners. We  deliver more than helicopter services, we collaborate with our customers to develop best practices and develop solutions. 

Innovation is key at NHV Group. The only way to achieve the highest levels of customer satisfaction is to stay one step ahead. The addition of the newest and most modern helicopter types (e.g. AW169, H175, H145D3) to our fleet is only one example. We are constantly looking for new and innovative opportunities to lift our service levels to even higher standards. We encourage out of the box thinking across the staff base and give them the opportunity to present any leading-edge ideas. 

We are flexible, adaptable and transparent to our stakeholders. We believe our unique selling point is our speed of reaction and flexibility. We customise our operating methodology to specific customer requirements, while having strong communication and respecting the highest integrity and quality standards.
