Waypoint Leasing Stands Behind Oil-and-gas Operators
The Irish helicopter leasing company still sees plenty of opportunity in the leasing marketplace.


Earlier this year, Waypoint Leasing opened a new office in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, expanding the helicopter leasing company’s support not only for the challenging Brazil oil-and-gas market but also for all of Latin America, according to Steffen Bay, vice president of marketing and sales. “We have a significant business in Brazil,” he told AIN. “We believe in the long term. It’ll balance out eventually, and we need to be close to customers in these tough times. It doesn’t make sense to put our head in the sand.”
