Oil companies and their demands
Why is it that the same international O&G companies demand different operating standards depending on which country they operate in?
Like CAT A offshore above certain wave heights or at night; built in buoyancy
in passenger survival suits, etc.
Minimum experience levels for pilots, TCAS, EGWPS, all things off the shelf, but safety recommendations are not pushed for with any urgency.
Do they evaluate the cultural differences of different nationalities and see what they can get away with?
But maybe that's just too cynical.
