Industrial & Remote Project Helicopter Charter
Companies charter helicopters when a project site is genuinely hard to reach and the cost of lost executive, engineering or technical time outweighs the cost of the flight. SkyMatch Group is an independent charter intermediary: we structure the mission requirement and source appropriately licensed third-party operators. Aircraft, payload, landing-site suitability, permits and feasibility are confirmed by the operator, never assumed here.

- Who operates the flight
- An independent third-party operator. SkyMatch coordinates and does not operate aircraft; operational responsibility remains with the operator.
How to charter a helicopter to a mine site, exploration camp or remote project — executive site visits, geological and survey teams, drill-site access, urgent specialist mobilisation, multi-site inspection days, and what drives the cost. Independent broker; licensed operators confirm aircraft, landing and price.
Who this is for: mining and exploration companies, aquaculture and salmon producers, engineering contractors, infrastructure and hydroelectric developers, geological and survey teams, energy and geothermal projects, equipment suppliers, investors and project owners.
Executive site visits and investor due-diligence days — reaching a project, forming a judgement and returning the same day.
Engineering, technical and survey team transport, including geological exploration and inspection sorties.
Urgent specialist mobilisation when a project, plant or production site is losing money by the hour.
Multi-site inspection days: several locations covered between morning and evening instead of over a week.
Light equipment, samples and urgent parts where operationally suitable, within payload, packaging and manifest rules.
Remote camps and drill sites, including short-term exploration campaigns and seasonal project access.
Industrial missions are priced per aircraft and per mission, never per seat — aircraft category, flight time including positioning, crew, remote configuration, standby and waiting, landing and handling, fuel logistics, permits and season are the drivers, and only the performing operator can price them.
One structured mission brief goes to operators whose recorded capabilities potentially match the requirement, so responses are comparable instead of a string of separate phone calls.

Frequently Asked Questions
Often yes — that is the core mission of this vertical. Whether the aircraft can land at the site itself, or at a nearby suitable point with a short ground or boat leg, depends on the landing area, the site owner's permission and the operator's assessment of surface, obstacles, approach, weather and payload.
By describing the campaign rather than asking for a price first: country and nearest airport or town, site coordinates where known, dates and duration, number of people, weights, whether a landing area exists, fuel availability and any HSE or aviation standards your company applies. That brief goes to operators with remote-operations experience, and they respond with aircraft, availability and pricing.
Light equipment and urgent parts are routine within cabin or, where an operator holds the capability, external-load rules. Weight, dimensions, packaging and dangerous-goods classification decide what is possible, and the operator signs off the manifest.
Country and project location, nearest airport or town, coordinates if you have them, dates, passenger numbers, cargo weights, whether a landing area is known, one-off mission or campaign with an expected number of flights, and any HSE, insurance, BARS or aviation requirements your company imposes. Missing information is the single biggest cause of slow or unusable operator responses.
Yes — moving veterinary, fish-health, technical and management teams between coastal and island sites is an established use. Our Chile aquaculture page covers the Patagonian salmon market in detail, including why farm landings are never assumed.
By the operator, not by us and not by a map. Surface, slope, size, obstacles, approach and departure paths, wind, altitude and temperature, fuel planning and the landowner's or site owner's permission all feed the decision. Coordinates, photographs and any existing site survey help enormously — send them with the mission brief.
That is one of the most common requests we handle: out in the morning, time on site, back the same evening. Feasibility depends on distances, daylight, refuelling, landing arrangements and weather, and the operator confirms the day plan.
Yes, and it is usually the practical route — locally based aircraft avoid long positioning legs. Contracting, insurance requirements, passenger documentation and any site or regulatory conditions are set by the operator and the local authorities.
Industrial missions are priced per aircraft and per mission, never per seat — aircraft category, flight time including positioning, crew, remote configuration, standby and waiting, landing and handling, fuel logistics, permits and season are the drivers, and only the performing operator can price them.
Yes. Give us the locations, the time you need on the ground at each and your start and finish points, and the mission is built around daylight, fuel and landing arrangements. The multi-site day calculator gives a planning band before any operator is approached.
Payload is not a fixed number. It moves with aircraft type and configuration, fuel required for the sector and reserves, altitude, temperature, crew and any equipment already fitted. Give us weights and dimensions and the operator returns what is carryable on that route on that day.
When the ground journey consumes most of a working day, when several distant locations must be covered between morning and evening, when a specialist has to reach a site quickly, or when seasonal conditions close the road or water route. Where road or boat covers the work, that is usually the cheaper and right answer — we will say so.
Industrial and aerial-work missions may require additional approvals, risk assessment, specialist aircraft, operator qualifications or regulatory permissions. We put your requirement in front of operators who record the relevant capability, and the operator confirms what applies to your mission. We never assert an approval on an operator's behalf.
No. SkyMatch Group is an independent charter intermediary and does not own or operate aircraft. Flights are performed by appropriately licensed third-party operators. Aircraft selection, payload, landing-site suitability, permits, weather limitations, pricing and overall operational feasibility are confirmed by that operator and the relevant authorities or site owners.
