8.1.5 Management of Combined Operations Helidecks
During the management of combined operations the potential may exist for more than one helideck to be available. Also, there is the possibility that a helideck(s) will be inaccessible due to the temporary physical arrangement of the facilities or activities taking place thereon.
The Field Operator in conjunction with other Duty Holder(s) and the Helicopter Operator should:
1.
Initially decide which helideck(s) will be designated ‘Active’ or ‘Inactive’
2.
If one or more helidecks will remain available, introduce a combined helideck management organisation in order to appoint the OIM, HLO and Radio Operator who shall act as co-ordinator for the combined operations helicopter activities
3.
Agree any changes to normal operating procedures and, where appropriate, develop helideck management and emergency procedures that will properly accommodate safe helicopter operations during the temporary works
4.
Make provisions for the correct marking of ‘Inactive’ helideck(s)
5.
Where appropriate, undertake a full assessment of any potential effects from combined operations on the helicopter flying environment (e.g. adverse aerodynamic and thermal effects on flight paths, obstructions, crane operations, vessel movements, fugitive gas emissions, etc.)
6.
Consider the possible effects on helideck management from increased helicopter movements and make suitable provisions to mitigate these effects. There may be increased passenger and freight flows through the designated heli-admin and increased number of refuels requiring greater fuel stocks to be held on board, etc.
8.2 NORMALLY UNATTENDED INSTALLATIONS
8.2.1 Introduction
NUIs are a unique type of facility that require considerable and proper thought when designing the installation for helicopter operations.
