Then they must allow others to bid with old machines as well.
But of course when operating costs of S92 and 225 are much higher this makes no sense.
Please enlighten me why bidding with S92, 225 and 175 would be on the naughty side?
S92 is too expensive and "old tech" the 225 because of its reputation in the north sea and and old tech, the 175 is just a body kitted 225 with low service life of mgb components.

Not sure the mass casualty evacuation argument is relevant due to the plethora of stats gathered under this contract.
The next contract will be set by statisticians and run by accountants
