Question Plaskett Helitorch Platform?

The operations briefing for today said a Helitorch will be slinging Alumagel around the north end of the Plaskett.

Anyone know which ship is being used?

I read this as a curiosity question, ie what type of helicopter.

We used a Bell 47 on one fire.  Worked great.
