What we doEnergy & Mining
Oil companies audit their airlines hard. We keep passing.
Crew changes, site supply and survey support for oil, gas and mining.
The short version
A resource company won't put its people on an aircraft until its own aviation auditors have been through the operator. ALS has been audited and approved by Woodside Energy, TotalEnergies, Tullow Oil, Africa Oil, White Nile and Barrick Gold, and by Litson & Associates, who audit operators for the resource industry. We fly crew rotations to remote sites and camps, with the aircraft based on site or flown from Nairobi.
