Leonardo names service centre in Saudi Arabia

With the helicopter fleet in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia growing to deliver multiple services to the local economy and communities, resulting in a stronger need to provide greater levels of technical support, Leonardo further reinforced its partnership with Mukamalah Aviation Company (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Saudi Aramco) appointing it as an Authorised Service Centre in the country. Mukamalah Aviation Company will soon deliver a range of maintenance and repair services for its AW139 and AW109 Power helicopters and for third-party aircraft of the same type from its bases in Tanajib, Ras Tanura, and Dammam. One of the largest operators of Leonardo helicopters in the Middle East; Mukamalah Aviation Company has been operating AW139s since 2008 and AW109 light twins since 2006, mainly to perform offshore transport missions in Saudi Arabia to support the oil and gas industry. Today’s Mukamalah Leonardo helicopter fleet consists of 27 units.
