The Norwegian Defence Estates Agency (NDEA) has nominated AF Gruppen
(AFG) as contractor for a new helicopter base at Lakselv airport,
Banak. This is a similar base to the one AF is currently building at
Ørlandet.
The contract includes building a new hangar building for the 330
Squadron at Lakselv airport, Banak. The project also includes
outdoor facilities on landside and airside. Landside work primarily
comprises a new access road and parking areas, while airside work
includes three helicopter stands. Approximately 6 000 m2 gross area
of new buildings will be erected, in addition to around 15,000 m2 of
outdoor facilities.
The contract is a turnkey contract valued at NOK 205 million
excluding VAT. Work commences in August 2017, and the construction
period is expected to last for approximately 1,5 years.
"This is an important and interesting contract for our building
operations. We are very pleased that the NDEA again has chosen AF as
contractor on a helicopter base project," says Morten Grongstad, CEO
of AF Gruppen.
