Offshore Contract Renewals
Ho Hum, this is not good news. Another operator to suppress operators already on their ar*@&. Sad for the guys and gals whom bend over backwards daily to supply a first class service to these ungrateful, greedy customers. Why oh why do people give so much when time and time again it's been proven the clients you serve don't give two sh*@5 about you?
Bad day for the North Sea

KLM won Shell from BAH/BIH then Bristow bid for the whole of the North Sea and won before the renewal date. KLM had given Shell a superb service but it meant nothing. It was then as disorganised as Napoleon's retreat from Moscow and gave us a lot of laughs at Shell's expense when things went wrong. Bristow eventually got the contract organised and running well but then lost to Dancopter. Sorry to hear that Bristow is shutting up shop at Norwich and good luck in finding new positions everyone.

Well at least it's a new operator with the current helicopter type that's operated , none of this "different type" ......that can be used to rule out or avoid TUPE , and attempt to keep staffing costs down and impact chances of transfer for existing " old guard "
Good luck to those concerned , hopefully a smooth transfer or that a genuine recruitment process is adopted. It is obvious that personnel with years of continual service , experience and dedication seem to account for zilch when it comes to these contract renewals these days , the Oil and Gas Companies only relating to the bottom line price as bid ....... the helicopter operator probably having to "sharp pencil" to make it work...... especially on some short term contract awards.
Still nice to see Bond back though

For those with the rose tinted specs, you are in for some disappointment IMHO

Just wondering how the tactic mentioned above is working out for Perenco this time?
