Twin Airbus H175s Join PHI’s Australian Fleet
Two Airbus H175 helicopters have officially entered service with PHI Aviation in Australia, supporting their offshore energy transportation, search and rescue and medical evacuation operations. PHI, which has pioneered many firsts over its 75-year history, operates bases in Broome, Darwin, and Exmouth, Australia. The new H175 helicopters will be based in Broome, and additional H175s are expected to join the fleet in the coming months.

“We are pleased to support our long-term customer PHI Aviation with delivering the H175 helicopters for their current Australian fleet. The high performance of the H175 aircraft in the challenging Western Australian environment is an excellent addition for the PHI Aviation fleet, especially with their focus on search and rescue operations and marine transfers,” said Christian Venzal, Managing Director of Airbus Helicopters in Australia and New Zealand.
PHI is a global leader in providing safe and reliable helicopter transportation. Its strong focus is on supporting energy providers, hospitals, air medical organisations, and governments worldwide.

The H175 helicopter offers superior performance, payload capacity, and range, making it ideal for long-range transport across Western Australia’s vast distances. Combined with the lowest vibration and sound signature in its class and advanced Helionix safety systems, the H175 delivers exceptional comfort and safety for passengers and the communities it serves. These helicopters complement PHI’s existing multi-type fleet. They can be reconfigured with hoists for search and rescue missions or fitted with a medical interior for emergency evacuations from offshore oil rigs.
