Warning: I just read the average saturation diver works only 120 days a year

Saw it in a trade report from the IMCA, but it makes the high day rates seem way more real. How many days do you guys actually pull in a normal season?

Makes sense when you factor in standby time and travel. That 120 days is just the paid work, not the weeks spent waiting on weather or a job site.

My last gig had 90 paid days but took almost five months total.

My buddy sat in Norway for six weeks, got paid for maybe ten days of actual diving.
