The 11 passengers and two crew on the flight from the Gullfaks B oil platform, operated by Statoil, were all **rwegian except for one British and one Italian national, according to the Rescue Coordination Centre for Southern **rway. "The helicopter is completely destroyed," it said. After several hours searching for survivors, 11 bodies were found and the remaining two people were presumed dead. Plumes of ***** rose from the scene in a stretch of sea with many small islands and debris could be seen on the rocks. Several witnesses told **rwegian media they saw the rotor separate from the helicopter while still in the air. "While I looked up, the rotor loosened and disappeared towards the **rth," John Atle Sekkingstad told the website of local paper Bergens Tidende. "After that, the helicopter turned **rth and I saw fire at the top of the helicopter, where the rotor had been attached. It caught fire before it crashed. "The main body of the aircraft was lying under water, while its rotor was found on a rocky outcrop 200-300 metres (yards) away, state broadcaster NRK said, quoting the rescue centre. Oil worker Chris Andersen told NRK: "I saw the rotor separate .... t was horrible. There was a huge explosion that you could physically feel. Yu felt the vibrations.

Weather conditions on the day were **rmal. **rway´s king and the prime minister expressed their condolences to the families of the victims. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Oil rig helicopter crashes off **rwegian coast, 13 presumed dead || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
