The principal and founder, Capt. H. Anthony
Vieira a 10,000+ hour helicopter pilot, has been involved in safety
training since 1984 when the then AMOCO saw a need to offer its
workers some measure of open sea survival training. Capt. Vieira
conducted this training program from its inception.
In 1998, Hummingbird Helicopter Services Limited
was the first company to introduce Helicopter Underwater Egress
Training (HUET) locally and in the region. Hummingbird has since
become well known for its signature delivery of its HUET programme.
The year 2001 saw an increased demand for
training and, in November of that year Capt. Vieira was approached
by BP to supplement their basic safety training needs. In support
of the BP initiative, Hummingbird commenced offering both a four
(4) day basic programme as well as a two (2) day refresher. RGIT
Montrose of Aberdeen Scotland, well known internationally for their
safety training capability have audited and approved HHSL Safety
Systems Limited.
Our certification is accepted in the UK, China,
New Zealand, Gulf of Mexico, and Venezuela to name a few countries.
