Rotortrade, a pre-owned helicopter company, has announced a partnership with Petroleum Air Services (PAS), an Egyptian civilian helicopter operator.
The partnership was announced at the Egypt International Air Show in September. Rotortrade will provide PAS with services such as helicopter sales, remarketing, market intelligence, and asset valuations.
Aurelien Blanc, Rotortrade EVP Head of Region, APAC and MEA, added, “We are honoured to collaborate with PAS, a key player in the aviation industry in Egypt. Within PAS’s plans to renew or extend their fleet, this cooperation aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver tailored solutions leveraging on our unique positioning on the market. We look forward to supporting PAS in achieving their development plans.”
PAS supports Egypt’s oil and gas industry and emergency medical services with a fleet of 31 helicopters, including Bell, Airbus, and Leonardo aircraft.
“We are interested to cooperate with Rotortrade to advise on our fleet renewal plans and enhance our operational capabilities,” said Ehab Ali Abdelmaksoud Abbas, Chairman and Managing Director at PAS. “This cooperation will allow us to leverage Rotortrade’s expertise and market knowledge to ensure we continue to provide top-tier services to our clients in the Oil and Gas industry and beyond.”
This announcement follows news from Rotortrade in March 2024 that it was opening its new North American HQ in Wilmington, Delaware, and more recent news in August 2024 that the company had obtained Part 145 certification for EC120 and AS350/H125 series helicopters.
