Cost of Your Support Charter

Furthermore at Heli Alaska, we understand the costs of Geological Research in Alaska can be prohibitive. As such for our services we have A FLAT HOURLY FEE.

We only charge for flight time

In general with other providers, if the helicopter is in high demand, work will be more expensive.

Weather that is not favorable can make helicopter charter more expensive and necessitate extra resources.

In particular cost can be influenced by the number of personnel required.

In similar fashion, competitors’ costs can vary based on the type of equipment needed.

Of course, the cost can even depend on the location of the works, with remote areas likely more expensive. Again, we only charge for flight time.

RECENT PROJECT

Heli Alaska - Excavator 2

Heli Alaska recently completed a comprehensive geological survey project for a leading mining company in the remote mountains of Alaska. The project aimed to identify potential mineral deposits and evaluate the feasibility of future mining operations in the area. Heli Alaska’s helicopter services played a pivotal role in the success of the project, overcoming barriers such as remote access, challenging weather conditions, and logistical challenges faced by traditional ground-based survey methods.

To carry out the geological survey, Heli Alaska utilized its fleet of R44 helicopters to transport a team of geologists and their specialized equipment to the remote survey sites. Our skilled pilots, with their deep understanding of Alaska’s terrain and weather patterns, were able to navigate through rugged landscapes and unpredictable weather conditions, ensuring the project’s timely completion. In addition, Heli Alaska’s helicopters enabled efficient data collection and facilitated touch-and-go operations, allowing the geologists to work on multiple survey sites in a single day without concerns about ground conditions.

The aerial geological survey conducted by Heli Alaska successfully identified several promising mineral deposits, providing valuable data to support the mining company’s decision-making process. The client commended Heli Alaska’s professionalism, efficiency, and commitment to safety throughout the project. By addressing potential barriers to sale, such as remote access, equipment transportation, and weather challenges
