Babcock in Australia

Doing some research on Babcock Offshore MCS in Australia. I know they have a AW139 and some S-92s. Does anyone know what oil and gas contracts they are on? Which bases are they actually working out of? Any info is much appreciated.

Thanks gentlemen.

terminus mos - Any idea why they are replacing the S-92s? Will they be redeployed elsewhere?

For everyone's information, I am a researcher. A client asked me about Babcock in Australia and I am trying to see past what is on the company website. No affiliation with FlightGlobal. No ulterior motives other than trying to get the best info out there. I read pprune to get the view from the people actually doing the work . . . .

The contract was for AW139s they only used the 92 until the Augusta was online. No Idea where they will be going after Barrow.

Rumour has it that they have a drilling campaign for CoP out of Darwin with the 92s.
