Statoil Report
Interesting if you "read between the lines" of some of the inferences.
Particularly the sections on contracts and performance and why they have been brought to light.
Statoil must regularly conduct a holistic assessment in association with helicopter operators in order to improve understanding of the relationship between technical and commercial factors that, either individually or combined, can affect safety. Starting with the holistic assessment, a clearer flight safety strategy and accompanying action plan must be developed. Important factors that should be incorporated into the holistic assessment as a minimum include:
• The compensation format (penalty)
• Spare capacity
• The spare parts and parts cannibalisation situation (robbery)
• Turnaround time
• Several proactive risk indicators that can highlight undesirable developments
amongst helicopter operators in a timely manner
• Minimum requirements for competence and key positions in the contracts Statoil
has with helicopter operators
