One of the rumours I heard is that there may be no need for a new base manager at Agip as Bristow may pull out because of the old problem every company flying for Agip has - being owed huge sums of money for a long time
. The Bristow contract is renewed every 2 or 3 weeks because NAPIMS wouldn't endorse the contract because no 'brown envelopes' were handed over to them
.
