Hi,

does anyone know if there are offshore companies in the european sector that work with a rotation such as 6/6 or 8/4?

Thanks !

Don't know about the rest of europe, but in the uk I don't think anyone does that (I'm assumin you are talking 6 weeks on /off, not days?). In the southern bases CHC works a flexible non-cyclical rota. CHC in Aberdeen works something like 7 days on 7 days off, and also 5,2 - 5,9 (i don't work in Aberdeen so this may be slightly wrong, but i think it's something like that)

Bond Jigsaw has a pattern that's cyclical over 5 weeks: basically a week in sumburgh, week off, week offshore, week off, then 4 days line flying, 3 days off.

Apart from that CHC has offshore contracts every so often that are either week on week off or 2 weeks on 2 weeks off.

I don't know anything about Bristow's patterns.

Not sure if that's any help or not.
