PHI Aviation LLC is a helicopter operator based in Lafayette, Louisiana, USA. The site says it operates and maintains helicopters for energy services, passenger transport, search and rescue, wind, marine pilot transfer, MRO and air medical work.

The site says PHI has flown more than 12 million flight hours and carries about 400,000 passengers a year. It describes a fleet of more than 200 helicopters and a team of experienced pilots and maintenance staff.

The fleet includes light, medium and heavy class helicopters from Bell, Leonardo, Sikorsky and Airbus. The site says the company's helicopter operations reach North America, offshore waters of Latin America, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia and the Eastern Mediterranean.
