Bristow Group's demand exhibits some seasonality, with potential weakness in Q1 due to seasonal factors and adverse weather. Seasonal personnel cost variations have been observed in regions like Norway. Revenues from "Other Services" can see a boost due to seasonally higher utilization. Demand for offshore energy services can fluctuate based on global oil and gas market conditions. Government contracts, particularly for SAR services, are typically long-term and provide stable cash flow. The commencement of new contracts can sometimes mitigate the impact of typical seasonality.
