I agree with 212man.

Pullharder, I hear one oil company is forecast to make a tenth of what it did last year. Mothballing of rigs is on the cards, Invergordon slowly filling with un-used semi's. It's not that they have loads of money and aren't choosing to spend it, the NS is simply uneconomic in its current state.

The service sector is vastely over-priced for the current oil price...simple
This will lead to activity levels dropping (significantly)...simple
That will make negotiating a pilot's idea of a 'good' roster very difficult...simple.
