Wiking, June 06, 2017 - Wiking Helikopter Service GmbH has won a contract to provide helicopter services to crews working on DolWin Gamma, an offshore converter station to be installed by Nordic Yards GmbH 50 kilometres north of the island of Borkum.
The main service will be crew changes to the platform and jack-up vessels on site, the company said.
