Bintulu – A Malaysia Helicopter Services (MHS) chopper crashed at sea near the Shell Malaysia B11 oil rig, some 170km off Bintulu in Sarawak, at about noon Saturday but all 13 people on board, including the two pilots, are safe.
Shell Malaysia said all the 11 passengers, eight Malaysians, two New Zealanders and a Briton, and the Malaysian pilots were evacuated by another helicopter to Miri for observation and medical treatment.
One of the passengers is reported to have sustained bruises.
The oil company said all family members of the passengers and pilots had been notified.
The company’s emergency response team continues to monitor the situation and will lend full assistance to later investigations into the incident.
The oil company said the mishap happened at about 12.05 pm when the helicopter, on a routine flight, encountered difficulties near the B11 platform and crashed into the water.
The chopper, one of three contracted from MHS for Shell Malaysia’s upstream activities, was enroute to B11 from the Miri helibase.
The identities of the passengers and pilots have yet to be released.
In Miri, next-of-kin gathered at the Columbia Medical Centre where those on board had been brought for observation and medical treatment.
Reporters were also there to attempt to get eye-witness accounts of the incident, but they were prevented from talking to anyone.
Nevertheless, according to one of the passengers, the mishap happened about 11km from the B 11 platform, and the incident was seen by personnel at the platform.
He said the helicopter was at a height of about 4,000 feet when those on board realised that something was wrong. Then, at about 1,000 feet, the chopper spun and crashed into the water.
All the passengers and the pilots managed to emerge from the sinking helicopter and were rescued by the oil company’s emergency response team.
He said that thanks to the experienced pilots and the high level of safety standards practised by Shell, they managed to evade a worst situation had they landed on the platform.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
