Hold the property, cycle the crew
Book the property on continuous exclusive use across the campaign, not stay-by-stay. It costs more headline pounds and saves substantially in cancellations, re-mobilisations and lost changeovers.
Changeover-day logistics
Most Aberdeen offshore changeovers cluster on Sunday-Monday or Thursday-Friday. Line up cleans, linen and, where needed, food restocks to hit those exact windows.
Welfare for decompression
The first 12 hours onshore matter. A private living room, a decent shower and a real kitchen turn a bad trip into a manageable one. That's what long-cycle retention looks like on paper.
Bridge nights and travel days
Build one bridge night into every rotation for weather or schedule slip. It's the cheapest insurance you'll buy on a campaign.
