Offshore oil and gas helicopter operator based at Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia
Sazma Aviation Sdn Bhd is a Malaysian helicopter company with its office at Terminal 2, Kota Kinabalu International Airport in Sabah. Its website describes it as an oil and gas helicopter transport company and states that it started operations in 2012.
The company says it holds a standalone offshore Air Operator Certificate approved by the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM), and presents itself as the first in the country to hold this type of certificate. Its work centres on flying personnel to and from offshore installations rather than on private passenger charters.
The website does not publish a fleet list. Search results indicate that the company is linked to Sabah Air Aviation, a Sabah helicopter operator that describes Sazma as its sister company handling offshore work, and that Sazma operates Leonardo AW139 twin-engine helicopters in partnership with Abu Dhabi Aviation. These points come from secondary sources and should be confirmed with the company.
Private flyers looking for helicopter transport in Sabah should note that this operator focuses on long-term energy-sector contracts. Sabah Air also lists charter services, so travellers should contact either company directly to check whether a one-off charter is possible.
