BHNL also has an AW189 (was anyway) on contract with Total (or Total Energies as they are now). So, the spread for the IOCs looks like this (excuse possible slight changes in numbers in last year):
Caverton:
- Shell (5 AW139 + 1 DHC-6)
- Chevron deepwater (1 S92 with 1 AW139 support)
- Chevron shallow water/onshore (3 B412s + 8 B407s)
- Agip/ENI (2 S76Ds)
OAS/ADA:
- Exxon/Mobil deepwater (3 AW139s)
BHNL:
- Exxon/Mobil shallow water (4 S76Ds)
- Total (1 AW189)
- 1 ERJ145 mainly supporting Exxon/Mobil
There are numerous smaller local company contracts too.
