24/7 Jet A1 Support for Southern Lakes Helicopters
Southern Lakes Helicopters has been operating out of Te Anau for over 40 years, running a fleet of 11 aircraft across the South Island, down to Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic islands, and up to Aoraki Mount Cook National Park. With operations that include 24/7 emergency response for fire, police and search and rescue, there is no margin for error when it comes to fuel supply.
In this testimonial, Safety Manager Richie Hunter explains why Southern Lakes Helicopters chooses RD Petroleum as their number one Jet A1 supplier and has for years. He talks about what round-the-clock fuel support actually means for an operation running emergency services, why timely communication and a rep who always picks up the phone is non-negotiable at this level, and why Southern Lakes Helicopters hasn't looked back since partnering with RD Petroleum.
"Our aircraft run on good engineering, good fuel, and good piloting. If we can't get a reliable source of fuel, we simply can't operate safely."
RD Petroleum supplies Jet A1 and bulk fuel to aviation operators, farms and contractors across the South Island, with the reliability and round-the-clock support that critical operations demand.
If your operation can't afford a fuel supplier that lets you down, contact the RD Petroleum team to discuss how we can support you.
