That is a quite a large helicopter-15 oil rig workers as a payload,is certainly a lot.
Never new its was quite that large-its certainly a very nice looking helicopter.

Here is another couple of images of another helicopter,that passed me,while on was on to of a sand dune near Noosa.Looks like it could be a 'Longranger'.Not sure-but looks like you could have a good party in this one.
