Heli Aust 139 jobs in WA
Secrecy
Blade Root,
I agree.
Why all the secrecy with the terms and conditions with their new gig in Karratha?! The packages for the other offshore operators are there to see.

Mmm ....
Bristows ARE looking for 139 drivers .... BUT .... I understand its ONLY for their contracts in Nigeria ....
From what I understand there are no plans to operate them (139s) in Oz (?) atm this of course is all subject to retrospective amendment IAW normal helicopter company operations.

Spinner.
Nope, rumour has it that the 139's are headed for the Gorgon Project based out of North Western Australia, maybe Karratha or Exmouth.
Bristow’s have heaps of experience and guys for the Puma’s, just a little light on in the 139 department.

Strange
I spoke to one of the guys in the West today and he advises that Bristow ordered 5 139's about 6 months ago. So I guess they are going to ramp up. I know they won the tender for Gorgon and what I was told was 2 x 225's and 2 x 139's. I don't think they have any guys rated on the 139 but who knows as they have about 100 pilots floating around.
I guess the HNZ guys will be ****ting themselves.
Does anyone know if Bristow put on any Jayrow guys from Tooradin?
Banger.

HNZ contract
My understanding is that the contract HNZ had is due to expire....nothing sinister about it at all... the Bristow contract is a totally different one, HNZ and CHC were beaten by Bristow in the tendering stage.
Life goes on as normal in the offshore game, contracts come and contracts go....not rocket science!

Mmmm ...
High Nr ... Very interesting ... you may well be correct about the 'Gorgon' ...
BUT I know I'm correct about Nigeria
I understand Bristows have approximately 9 139s ordered ... so both those contracts may well account for those numbers nicely!

AW139s on the shelf.
Word on the vine is that BHA will have a minimum of 2x139s going to be based on Barrow Island along with a brace of 225s for the Gorgon project. As for the other contracts which are still not awarded.....who knows? It's aviation after all, so don't beleive it until you're sitting in the seat hitting the tit!
