Helidecks
“Raising the industry safely”
Marine Aluminium Helidecks
Naturally Wise
Being surrounded by the extremes of nature has inspired us to try and overcome the challenges of the elements by engineering, designing and producing helidecks that are top of the class for offshore, marine and onshore projects. Our extensive experience within this industry, and in manufacturing helidecks with unique and innovative solutions, has led to a vast range of benefits for our clients. We make aerial access by helicopters available wherever it is needed. Providing safety, reliability and quality in every aspect for our clients.
Key Features offered with our helidecks include:
Weight Reductions
Using aluminium instead of steel in your helideck will provide a significant reduction in weight of approximately 50-65%, making it ideal for a weight sensitive project or vessel.
Strength and durability
Rest assured that all Class Strength Requirements are met using aluminium. Equivalent to mild steel, our helidecks give you the durability and robustness needed to withstand all challenging environments.
Cost savings with minimal maintenance
No surface treatment like painting is needed when using aluminium, in addition to no requirement for maintenance due to zero corrosion of the metal.
Considerations for lifecycle cost of steel:
- Offshore manhours
- Accommmodation
- Access
- Craneage
- Painting, treatment and welding materials
- Scrap metal value
Fire Safety (Safe Deck®)
We are proud to have developed our own innovative fluid drainage system for Helidecks according to NORSOK-C004 requirements. Our Safe Deck® System has been tested and approved in accordance with DNV and ABS regulations.
Safe Deck® is a recessed drainage system for safe collection and discharge of water and any dispersed fuel on the helideck.

With over 100 landings on Gjøa’s helideck, my experience tells me that the quality of the aluminium helidecks from Marine Aluminium is safe and reliable even in the most rough and hostile weather conditions that exist in the North Sea
