Correct. Nobody flies out there without a good purpose. When places are tight, and this has often been the case since, ooh, around 22 Oct 2012, somebody is going to get bumped.
It is not normally going to be owner/operator crew/drilling/production guys. And it's not going to be the cook.
Much more likely that it is going to be the folks who are involved in periodic maintenance and inspection.
"We need this inspected, but it doesn't have to be THIS week." That's fine this week but what if this stumbles on in one form or another for a year and a half and then gets worse?
Declaration of vested interest.
Getting bumped a lot.
