Included in the multi-mission segment are helicopters used for forestry protection operations, including firefighting, which are used throughout the year. Powerline patrol and agriculture spraying operations are also increasingly popular and much-needed mission types, within the multi-mission segment. Multi-Mission 190 (37%) Offshore 64 (12%) China’s Citic Offshore Helicopter Company (COHC) is the largest operator in China. The company is heavily involved in offshore oil operations and pilot services for ships at port, with 34 helicopters assigned to offshore missions. Models include AS332L/L1, EC155B/B1, EC225LP and S-92A. COHC GA, a subsidiary of COHC, specializes in powerline patrol and various multi-mission segments. Their models include the H425, KA-32, AS350B3 and Z11. CHOC has a total number of 68 turbine helicopters. State Grid and Shanghai Kingwing GA are the second largest non-state operators. State Grid’s helicopters are used for powerline missions, including the Bell 206, Bell 429, Bell 407 and AS350B3. Other operators include China Southern, Reignwood and Flying Dragon with focuses on offshore, charter, agriculture and flight training. While the fleet of 519 turbine helicopters are spread out throughout the country, small clusters are situated along the eastern coast — from North to South. In the Western part of China there are 91 helicopters, leaving the Eastern countryside with remaining 82%. Large demand alongside the coast can be seen in areas surrounding Bohai Bay, which is home to one of the country’s largest oil and gas production bases, as well as the government-owned China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC). Southern China accounts for more than 60% of the total helicopter fleet, thanks to provinces with large fleets such as the manufacturing hub of Guangdong (116), as well as Shanghai (49). Guangdong continues to be the province with the highest number of helicopters. Nearly 90% of the helicopters in China allocated for offshore missions are in Guangdong, accounting for nearly half of the fleet in this province. The remaining helicopters are assigned to multimission use, law enforcement and SAR. 38 | CHINA GA REPORT 2017
