The average offshore tax refund comes to £3,000. Offshore workers can claim a tax rebate for travel to what HMRC call "temporary workplaces" (under 24 months), including travel to and from airports or heliports, as well other work related expenses such as gear and uniforms. You can claim for the last four tax years too!

No this is completely different. Seafarers deduction deals with residency issues and how many days you are out of the country. Our claim is for your travel from your home to the heliports.
Tax refunds aren't just for offshore travel expenses, either. The tax rules also allow offshore workers to claim for hotel bills and a number of other expenses. If you're footing those bills yourself, you could be due some cash. Working offshore is challenging enough already. You don't need the taxman drilling deeper into your wages than he's supposed to.
