If HeliHolland get it, i'm screwed, i have trouble enough calling the single one that flys from Durham every now and then the correct callsign. Ends up "HollyHelland" ...... crews never sound impressed

The cheapest? Why else split it from the Northern North Sea?

Considering that Heli Holland operate helicopters on behalf of Greenpeace, it might be hard to imagine they might ever be under serious consideration for a contract for any oil company?

Maybe Shell could make that one of the conditions of the contract.

Does anybody know whether this is a renewal of an existing contract or the expansion of the current one?

My target your talking cross purposes, this is about an oil and gas contract in the north sea nothing to do with SAR

Yes i know its O&G, but Bristows who have this contract split between NL & UK also operate 2 S61's for NOGEPA (i think). So if they lost the contract, i asked in a earlier post what would happen to the SAR? Would they keep it going in Den Helder or is it part and parcel with this contract.

TUPE
It's my limited understanding of TUPE that unless Bristow go under as a result of loosing the Shell contract, then TUPE does not apply. So if, for example, Bond or CHC won the contract, they would not be legally obliged to employ any of the Bristow pilots. Is this how it works or am I missing something? If its not, then the pilots at Bristow have nothing to fear as they can just walk into another Norfolk based operation. That is assuming it's won by a Norfolk based operator... Can anyone clarify / expand on this?
