Oxygen can be limiting in a two engine aircraft.... HKG-LHR would be a case in point.

There is a requirement for pax oxygen at FL140 but not at 10000ft.

It is up to the operator whether they carry the Oxygen for FL140 or just for descent to 10,000.

Clearly if terrain requirements necessitate the use of Oygen it must be considered.
