BW B767-300ER drivers

May I ask a question for BW B767-300 pilots. We have noticed that the aircraft has been weight restricted out of LGW to POS. I have been told although I accept it is probably half the story that due the Flight Deck has insufficient experience that ETOPs is allowed only to a max of 120 Mins whereas the normal limit is 180 Mins. Is this correct ? If not correct - why is the aircraft weight restricted ex LGW ? If due ETOPs - how long does it take to get qualified to get to 180 Mins ?

Many questions. Can anyone help or give me ideas ?

Thank you
