I think SLOP should be used on a regular basis, specially on the NATS, but never use the same offset as your colleague above or below, occasional severe turbulence might bring both aircraft mighty close to each other, 1000' is not too much for these TCAS jumpy A/C.

I've only seen published procedures for SLOP in Oceanic flight.
