Bristow Helicopters will invest over $1 million in a gas-to-power project for its logistics base at the NAF Base, Port Harcourt, RiversState. The investment is part of Bristow’s overall infrastructure expansion drive, meant to ensure adequate power supply to the base.
The power project will also cater for its proposed expansion project, in the greater NAF Base heliport expansion, reputed as the biggest heliport in the world when completed. However, according to Bristow, the ever elusive passage of the PIB is stalling the heliport’s expansion.
Bristow’s Business Development Manager, Mayowa Babatunde, told reporters on tour of the heliport base that the company’s infrastructure expansion drive also included upgraded logistics put in place to provide better services for Nigeria’s offshore oil and gas industry.
He explained that the gas-to-power project is part of the company’s sustainable energy program in line with the government’s gas monetization efforts to open up the sector for more investments.
