It remind's me of watching International its a knockout and Eddy Waring saying" Here comes the Belgans " as a group in fancy dress stumble on to the scene falling over each other and carrying a Joker..... always makes me snigger. Just my view of course
Just your poor point of view then!:ugh:

lowfat 1st Mar 2012 11:41

:ugh:"Poor" Or is it an "informed" point of view.

I leave it up to you to decided


Lighten up My target... lol

Epiphany 1st Mar 2012 12:57

My target is obviously a loyal employee who is too young to remember Jeux sans Frontieres. :)

Quite apt I thought !!

S76Heavy 15th Mar 2012 13:39

Still nothing? Not even good rumours?

RotorSwede 16th Mar 2012 08:17

bristow
 
Rumor I've heard from several ppl is that Shell goes for a 1 year extension of the Bristow contract.

Just a rumor, nothing confirmed.

MyTarget 30th Mar 2012 06:58

And the winner is.................................

Cuddles 30th Mar 2012 13:55

The oil companies. Again.

helimutt 31st Mar 2012 16:33

Caverton/Dancopter.:E

MyTarget 31st Mar 2012 17:42

The vikings are coming!

Tango123 31st Mar 2012 18:33

Is that confirmed, or just another rumour?

Epiphany 31st Mar 2012 19:16

A confirmed rumour.

EESDL 31st Mar 2012 20:08

Med venlig hilsen !

TeeS 31st Mar 2012 23:37

Is that rumoured to be a confirmed rumour, just a hearsay confirmed rumour or is it a confirmed rumour?

TeeS :}

ec155mech 1st Apr 2012 17:31

rumors are usually confirmed to be hearsay ;)

JulieAndrews 5th Apr 2012 00:11

tune in - 16 th April

High Speed gennie 5th Apr 2012 07:26

The Vikings can stay at home, building the Shell logo from Lego bricks....

The Belgians are coming, serving 'Vlaams frites' and mayonnaise on the outbound legs :ok:

EESDL 6th Apr 2012 17:21

Not the Shell contract but close.......
'Wintershall' 5-year contract from Jan 2013 Den Helder awarded to NHV

MyTarget 6th Apr 2012 19:48

Well the TWP contract which Wintershall was part of is obviously going to be no more and seperate tenders will come out in due course..............:D

SNI 7th Apr 2012 11:49

Makes you wonder who does the audits for Wintershall.... Unbelievable :ugh:

ec155mech 7th Apr 2012 11:52

Why is that SNI ? do you know something we dont ?

MyTarget 7th Apr 2012 13:16



Makes you wonder who does the audits for Wintershall.... Unbelievable
Good first post well done you:rolleyes: :ugh:

SNI 7th Apr 2012 13:19

Yes I probably do, but it wouldn't be wise for me to elaborate in details, if you catch my drift.... Let's just say I know what I'm talking about.

MyTarget 7th Apr 2012 13:21

Really well so do i!

Anyway we are all entitled to our opinions.

SNI 7th Apr 2012 13:41

The way you react tells me you must be very pro-NHV...? Am I right? One of the few, so you must be Belgian. That's cool, you're forgiven. Like you said, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Some are only just more valuable than others.

SNI 7th Apr 2012 13:52

P.S. I didn't read in the users agreement that your first post isn't allowed to be critical. Did it pass your ethical code?

MyTarget 7th Apr 2012 14:06

Ja ik werk voor NHV, en ik neem aan dat jij een ex werknemer bent van deze mooie club? Ik krijg de indruk dat het bedrijf waar je nu voor werkt een verlies heeft moeten incasseren, jammer!

SNI 7th Apr 2012 16:54

I'm sorry, but I didn't understand a word of that... Running it through google translate though tells me you work for NHV. You might wanna be careful announcing that on pprune... People might not take you so seriously anymore. And no, I don't work for CHC like you tried to imply, but I can tell you I have lot more respect for these guys than any pilot from NHV.

Shell Management 7th Apr 2012 17:05

Shell SNS - wait and see.

Incumbents should always avoid complacency and trying to rip off their customers. Clearly that is what Wintershall reacted to.

SunderlandMatt 7th Apr 2012 17:13

Chaps,

Take it elsewhere. This is the 'Professional' Pilots' Rumour Network. It's not a slagging wall.

Your insight into a company's internal workings is indeed very interesting and may well prove to be useful for those of us who are weighing up our prospects in the Offshore sector. I'm positive however, that the reputable companies I'm sure you both work for, wouldn't be quite so keen to see a squabble going on in such a small community forum as this.

Tea anyone?

Epiphany 7th Apr 2012 17:16

My Target. As you work for NHV could you please tell me how many times per year your 155 pilots attend simulator training and which simulator they use please? No ulterior motive here - just interested. Thank you.

Shell Management 7th Apr 2012 17:20

And does your fleet meet the full Shell spec?

SNI 7th Apr 2012 17:25

Well put. I agree. I apologize. Didn't want to start this childish discussion, but our Belgian friend didn't leave me any choice by reacting the way he did on a perfectly fine fact based comment. I understand though that that's not nice to hear when you work for them. But hey, the truth hurts some times, as this will sure go for the pilots that now face possible redundancy.

SNI 7th Apr 2012 17:47

Epiphany. Good question! :ok: While you're at it, ask them what kind of MCC they apply, how their Part A, B, C, D looks like, how they interpreted WRR, what their roster is and what they pay their pilots...

Oh, and just for fun, ask him how they react to a pilot when he reports sick...

MyTarget?

SNI 7th Apr 2012 18:05

Torquestripe. For short-term contracts the aircraft doesn't have to meet the full shell requirements. For example, Dancopter flies for them, but apparently they don't have crashworthy fuel tanks, which is a shell requirement. This is all hearsay from Bristow, so could be wrong here.

MyTarget 7th Apr 2012 18:07

This is my last post before i sign out of PPrune, 155 crews go to the sim at Eurocopter in Marignane once a year..........................

If you want to know how much pilots earn then join the company except you SNI LoL....................:E

SNI 7th Apr 2012 21:20

NHV crews DO NOT go to the sim in Marignane once a year. They rarely go if they go at all.

And if anyone is interested in joining NHV, please do apply and see what they have to offer... LOL! Before you sign for this amazing deal though, double check what's written in your contract, because you might be in for a surprise.

And then if you do go for it, you can expect NHV to be very accurate, precise and timely with their payment.:D:ok:

Epiphany 7th Apr 2012 21:34

There are reasons why NHV win contracts SNI and those in the know in the offshore industry understand why. It doesn't seem to bother the oil companies though. NHV will continue to win contracts by bidding lower than anyone else and they will always find people to work for them. C'est la vie.

SFIM 7th Apr 2012 21:51

The oil companies talk a good talk about safety and quality but their actions are all about cheapness unfortunately

lateldp 7th Apr 2012 22:43

Good evening, yes, my first post, sweaty fingers!!

Sorry mate, you are not good informed, they do go there, exactly once a year.

Understandable, but you do enjoy to continue.

Dear SNI, I do not know you as you do not know me but after all your unfriendly sayings and half truths I might still be able to respect you(yes,I work for NHV).I don't know where you collided with NHV,don't have to know either, but I do not appreciate it when one generalizes. There are good one's and bad one's, everywhere, if it's CHC, Bristow, Dancopter, NHV,... We're all in the business to make the best out of it with the means we get.
