I hope someone has dished up a big slice of humble pie to gullibell. The oil companies don't have a plan B as there are only two operators working, both need crews. The oil companies have tried using ships to transport oilies to rigs before but they hate it. I have been in this situation before, the extra cost to the oil companies is a fraction of a %. There budget for flying there execs around the world first class would equal the cost of offshore heli ops.
Well done Bristows, a pat on the back from me. !!
