In May 2026, Heli-One announced the launch of the first Sikorsky-authorized S-92 Customer Support Center in South America, marking a significant milestone in the development of regional helicopter maintenance infrastructure. Located in Cabo Frio, (SBCB) the facility was established in partnership with Sikorsky and Milestone Aviation as the first phase of a planned S-92 Center of Excellence for Latin America.
The center provides scheduled and unscheduled maintenance support for the regional fleet of approximately 40 Sikorsky S-92 helicopters, which are extensively employed in offshore oil and gas transportation missions. By improving access to technical expertise, spare parts, and maintenance services within the region, the facility is expected to reduce aircraft downtime and enhance fleet availability. Future expansion plans include localized component overhaul, advanced repair capabilities, and expanded parts provisioning, further reinforcing Brazil’s role as a strategic hub for offshore helicopter operations.
