I'm trying to think if this is likely to be a commercial success. It only takes 9 pax and while the range looks good, is it really going to be a game changer? It can go likely under 300nm each way and is there an idea of what it will cost?

Fuel on rigs will help massively though but 9 pax is not a lot and the numbers need to add up to make it worthwhile.

Have AW just gone into competition with itself with the AW101 and plans to use this in the O&G role?
