The remaining ex-Maersk Dauphin 365N2 finally departed Port Harcourt on Thursday, en-route to Sudan for the CHC/Schreiner contract there. It's rumored that it was delayed in Lagos by customs, but it should be arriving in Khartoum any day now. I wonder how much it will carry as it was one of the heaviest Dauphins in Nigeria and AGIP were very disappointed when it first arrived to find that it would carry less than an N.
The rumor also has it that by the end of the year the client may need a third Dauphin. Wonder where they'll find all the crews? It's good news for those looking for work as I understand that Schreiner are employing low-time co-pilots on the contract as well
