Well I guess paying stand by is better then paying de-mob and then paying re-mob to fly it back in. On top of that the ice would not have held the drill. Nice press Release
"SORRY we lost the drill on the Ice Road and now have to pay the drill company $500,000.00 to replace it. Plus the transport truck.
So you $500,000 lost drill $250.000 de-mob-re-mob or the $30,000 to keep the drill there and depending on weather maybe not even that much-Thankyou Global Warming-has to be good for something.
So I say to you the 12th. commandment:
A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE IS A DANGEROUS THING
