Responsible person on an offshore facility
The Helicopter Landing Officer, also known as HLO is a person on an offshore facility responsible for landing incoming helicopters safely.
It is the most vital part of the operating team for offshore helidecks.
Over the years the offshore oil exploration and production business has relied upon helicopters as the main method of transferring personnel to and from their workplace.
Traditionally, and legally these days, the appointment of an HLO is the responsibility of the ship or installation operator.
In the early days of offshore helicopter work, the basic requirements of safety were met by persons who would have a primary task and would take responsibility for the helicopter crew change as a secondary task.
