The New Center In Norway Is Located Inside A Hangar
Bell Textron company is noting the opening of its new Bell 525 Experience Center at the Stavanger Airport in Norway. The innovative space was created to display the Bell 525 capabilities for customers in Norway who perform missions in oil and gas, search and rescue, and military operations.
“Norway is a key market for Bell, and we are proud to establish our presence here,” said Patrick Moulay, senior vice president, Commercial Business. “We look forward to hosting key stakeholders to experience the Bell 525 and see firsthand how this 21st century aircraft will revolutionize customers’ operations.” Bell partnered with Norwegian Aviation & Defense Group in the development of this space. Located inside a hangar, the center displays the 525 mockup with interactive workstations for potential customers to learn more about the aircraft.
“This center is an exciting next step for Bell in Norway,” said Ole Petter Bakken, CEO of Norwegian Aviation Defense Group. “We will be able to showcase to customers the new technology the Bell 525 can provide for the energy sector, defense and SAR markets.”
“Wintershall Dea fully supports the opening of the new Bell 525 Experience Center,” said Alv Solheim, managing director, Wintershall Dea. “We are always looking into ways to advance the way that we operate. This collaboration gives us an opportunity to significantly improve how our employees travel to work offshore.”
According to the company, The Bell 525 is designed to support operations in Norway and revolutionize the oil and gas transport industry. The Bell 525 is expected to support both Wintershall Dea’s and Textron’s sustainability objectives by consuming 30 percent less fuel per hour of operation than the heavy class helicopters that fly offshore today on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
